Spring之BeanFactoryPostProcessor框架下PropertyPlaceholderConfigurer类

使用方式

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> 
<!DOCTYPE beans PUBLIC "-//SPRING/DTD BEAN/EN" 
      "http://www.springframework.org/dtd/spring-beans.dtd"> 

<beans>  
        <bean id="configBean" 
 class="org.springframework.beans.factory.config.PropertyPlaceholderConfigurer"> 
            <property name="location"> 
                <value>hello.properties</value> 
            </property> 
        </bean> 

        <bean id="helloBean" class="onlyfun.caterpillar.HelloBean"> 
            <property name="helloWord"> 
                <value>${onlyfun.caterpillar.helloWord}</value> 
            </property> 
        </bean>
</beans>

其中hello.properties文件中的内容为:

onlyfun.caterpillar.helloWord=Welcome!

原理

其中PropertyPlaceholderConfigurer正是BeanFactoryPostProcessor的一个重要实现。

Allows for custom modification of an application context’s bean definitions, adapting the bean property values of the context’s underlying bean factory.

A BeanFactoryPostProcessor may interact with and modify bean definitions, but never bean instances.

由此可见，BeanFactoryPostProcessor只能处理BeanDefinition; 是在所有Bean 实例化之前就执行的。
