解析默认标签中的自定义标签元素

protected void processBeanDefinition(Element ele, BeanDefinitionParserDelegate delegate) {
		BeanDefinitionHolder bdHolder = delegate.parseBeanDefinitionElement(ele);
		if (bdHolder != null) {
			bdHolder = delegate.decorateBeanDefinitionIfRequired(ele, bdHolder);
			try {
				// Register the final decorated instance.
				BeanDefinitionReaderUtils.registerBeanDefinition(bdHolder, getReaderContext().getRegistry());
			}
			catch (BeanDefinitionStoreException ex) {
				getReaderContext().error("Failed to register bean definition with name '" +
						bdHolder.getBeanName() + "'", ele, ex);
			}
			// Send registration event.
			getReaderContext().fireComponentRegistered(new BeanComponentDefinition(bdHolder));
		}
	}

bdHolder = delegate.decorateBeanDefinitionIfRequired(ele, bdHolder)，这句代码的语义：如果需要的话就对beanDefinition进行装饰。

public BeanDefinitionHolder decorateBeanDefinitionIfRequired(Element ele, BeanDefinitionHolder definitionHolder) {
		return decorateBeanDefinitionIfRequired(ele, definitionHolder, null);
	}

public BeanDefinitionHolder decorateBeanDefinitionIfRequired(
			Element ele, BeanDefinitionHolder definitionHolder, BeanDefinition containingBd) {

		BeanDefinitionHolder finalDefinition = definitionHolder;

		// Decorate based on custom attributes first.
		NamedNodeMap attributes = ele.getAttributes();
		for (int i = 0; i < attributes.getLength(); i++) {
			Node node = attributes.item(i);
			finalDefinition = decorateIfRequired(node, finalDefinition, containingBd);
		}

		// Decorate based on custom nested elements.
		NodeList children = ele.getChildNodes();
		for (int i = 0; i < children.getLength(); i++) {
			Node node = children.item(i);
			if (node.getNodeType() == Node.ELEMENT_NODE) {
				finalDefinition = decorateIfRequired(node, finalDefinition, containingBd);
			}
		}
		return finalDefinition;
	}

函数分别对元素的所有属性以及子节点进行了decorateIfRequired函数的调用，继续跟踪代码：

private BeanDefinitionHolder decorateIfRequired(
			Node node, BeanDefinitionHolder originalDef, BeanDefinition containingBd) {

		String namespaceUri = getNamespaceURI(node);
		if (!isDefaultNamespace(namespaceUri)) {
			NamespaceHandler handler = this.readerContext.getNamespaceHandlerResolver().resolve(namespaceUri);
			if (handler != null) {
				return handler.decorate(node, originalDef, new ParserContext(this.readerContext, this, containingBd));
			}
			else if (namespaceUri != null && namespaceUri.startsWith("http://www.springframework.org/")) {
				error("Unable to locate Spring NamespaceHandler for XML schema namespace [" + namespaceUri + "]", node);
			}
			else {
				// A custom namespace, not to be handled by Spring - maybe "xml:...".
				if (logger.isDebugEnabled()) {
					logger.debug("No Spring NamespaceHandler found for XML schema namespace [" + namespaceUri + "]");
				}
			}
		}
		return originalDef;
	}

程序走到这里，条理其实已经非常清楚了，首先获取属性或者元素的命名空间，以此来判断该元素或者属性是否适用于自定义标签的解析条件，找出自定义类型所对应的NamespaceHandler并进行进一步解析。
