Spring按类型自动装配注入数组、集合、Map

Spring按类型自动装配注入数组、集合、Map时，是把应用上下文中对应类型的bean装配进集合，而不是直接查找一个对应类型的集合然后注入。以下面这段代码为例：

import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Component;

import java.util.*;

@Component("cdPlayers")
public class CDPlayers {

    @Autowired
    private MediaPlayer[] mediaPlayerArr;

    @Autowired
    private List<MediaPlayer> mediaPlayerList;

    @Autowired
    private Map<String, MediaPlayer> mediaPlayerMap;

    @Autowired
    public void printInfo() {
        System.out.println(Arrays.toString(mediaPlayerArr));
        System.out.println(mediaPlayerList);
        System.out.println(mediaPlayerMap);
    }
}

Spring会查找应用上下文里可赋给MediaPlayer类型的bean放进mediaPlayerArr数组，查找可赋给MediaPlayer类型的bean放进mediaPlayerList，查找可赋给MediaPlayer类型的bean put进mediaPlayerMap，key为bean的name。

这个过程的源码在DefaultListableBeanFactory的doResolveDependency方法中，具体如下(Spring版本是5.0.2)：

	@Nullable
	public Object doResolveDependency(DependencyDescriptor descriptor, @Nullable String beanName,
			@Nullable Set<String> autowiredBeanNames, @Nullable TypeConverter typeConverter) throws BeansException {

		InjectionPoint previousInjectionPoint = ConstructorResolver.setCurrentInjectionPoint(descriptor);
		try {
			Object shortcut = descriptor.resolveShortcut(this);
			if (shortcut != null) {
				return shortcut;
			}

			Class<?> type = descriptor.getDependencyType();
			Object value = getAutowireCandidateResolver().getSuggestedValue(descriptor);
			if (value != null) {
				if (value instanceof String) {
					String strVal = resolveEmbeddedValue((String) value);
					BeanDefinition bd = (beanName != null && containsBean(beanName) ? getMergedBeanDefinition(beanName) : null);
					value = evaluateBeanDefinitionString(strVal, bd);
				}
				TypeConverter converter = (typeConverter != null ? typeConverter : getTypeConverter());
				return (descriptor.getField() != null ?
						converter.convertIfNecessary(value, type, descriptor.getField()) :
						converter.convertIfNecessary(value, type, descriptor.getMethodParameter()));
			}

			Object multipleBeans = resolveMultipleBeans(descriptor, beanName, autowiredBeanNames, typeConverter);
			if (multipleBeans != null) {
				return multipleBeans;
			}

			Map<String, Object> matchingBeans = findAutowireCandidates(beanName, type, descriptor);
			if (matchingBeans.isEmpty()) {
				if (isRequired(descriptor)) {
					raiseNoMatchingBeanFound(type, descriptor.getResolvableType(), descriptor);
				}
				return null;
			}

			String autowiredBeanName;
			Object instanceCandidate;

			if (matchingBeans.size() > 1) {
				autowiredBeanName = determineAutowireCandidate(matchingBeans, descriptor);
				if (autowiredBeanName == null) {
					if (isRequired(descriptor) || !indicatesMultipleBeans(type)) {
						return descriptor.resolveNotUnique(type, matchingBeans);
					}
					else {
						// In case of an optional Collection/Map, silently ignore a non-unique case:
						// possibly it was meant to be an empty collection of multiple regular beans
						// (before 4.3 in particular when we didn't even look for collection beans).
						return null;
					}
				}
				instanceCandidate = matchingBeans.get(autowiredBeanName);
			}
			else {
				// We have exactly one match.
				Map.Entry<String, Object> entry = matchingBeans.entrySet().iterator().next();
				autowiredBeanName = entry.getKey();
				instanceCandidate = entry.getValue();
			}

			if (autowiredBeanNames != null) {
				autowiredBeanNames.add(autowiredBeanName);
			}
			if (instanceCandidate instanceof Class) {
				instanceCandidate = descriptor.resolveCandidate(autowiredBeanName, type, this);
			}
			Object result = instanceCandidate;
			if (result instanceof NullBean) {
				if (isRequired(descriptor)) {
					raiseNoMatchingBeanFound(type, descriptor.getResolvableType(), descriptor);
				}
				result = null;
			}
			if (!ClassUtils.isAssignableValue(type, result)) {
				throw new BeanNotOfRequiredTypeException(autowiredBeanName, type, instanceCandidate.getClass());
			}
			return result;
		}
		finally {
			ConstructorResolver.setCurrentInjectionPoint(previousInjectionPoint);
		}
	}

	@Nullable
	private Object resolveMultipleBeans(DependencyDescriptor descriptor, @Nullable String beanName,
			@Nullable Set<String> autowiredBeanNames, @Nullable TypeConverter typeConverter) {

		Class<?> type = descriptor.getDependencyType();
		if (type.isArray()) {
			Class<?> componentType = type.getComponentType();
			ResolvableType resolvableType = descriptor.getResolvableType();
			Class<?> resolvedArrayType = resolvableType.resolve();
			if (resolvedArrayType != null && resolvedArrayType != type) {
				type = resolvedArrayType;
				componentType = resolvableType.getComponentType().resolve();
			}
			if (componentType == null) {
				return null;
			}
			Map<String, Object> matchingBeans = findAutowireCandidates(beanName, componentType,
					new MultiElementDescriptor(descriptor));
			if (matchingBeans.isEmpty()) {
				return null;
			}
			if (autowiredBeanNames != null) {
				autowiredBeanNames.addAll(matchingBeans.keySet());
			}
			TypeConverter converter = (typeConverter != null ? typeConverter : getTypeConverter());
			Object result = converter.convertIfNecessary(matchingBeans.values(), type);
			if (getDependencyComparator() != null && result instanceof Object[]) {
				Arrays.sort((Object[]) result, adaptDependencyComparator(matchingBeans));
			}
			return result;
		}
		else if (Collection.class.isAssignableFrom(type) && type.isInterface()) {
			Class<?> elementType = descriptor.getResolvableType().asCollection().resolveGeneric();
			if (elementType == null) {
				return null;
			}
			Map<String, Object> matchingBeans = findAutowireCandidates(beanName, elementType,

		}
		else if (Map.class == type) {
			ResolvableType mapType = descriptor.getResolvableType().asMap();
			Class<?> keyType = mapType.resolveGeneric(0);
			if (String.class != keyType) {
				return null;

			if (valueType == null) {

			}
			Map<String, Object> matchingBeans = findAutowireCandidates(beanName, valueType,
					new MultiElementDescriptor(descriptor));
			if (matchingBeans.isEmpty()) {
				return null;
			}
			if (autowiredBeanNames != null) {
				autowiredBeanNames.addAll(matchingBeans.keySet());
			}
			return matchingBeans;
		}
		else {
			return null;
		}
	}

我们可以看到在resolveMultipleBeans方法中：

1. 如果是数组，则获取数组元素类型，查找匹配该类型的所有bean，返回一个这些bean的数组；
2. 如果该类可赋给Collection，并且是一个接口，则获取集合元素类型，查找匹配该类型的所有bean，返回一个这些bean的集合；
3. 如果该类型是Map(注意是type == Map.class)，且key是String类型，则获取Map的value的类型，查找匹配该类型的所有bean，这是一个key为bean name、value为bean实例的一个Map，返回这个Map。
4. 其他情况则是我们所熟知的按类型自动装配过程。
