Spring notes 2

Wiring beans

• Automatically wiring beans

configuration class:
package soundsystem;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.ComponentScan;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.Configuration;
@Configuration
@ComponentScan
public class CDPlayerConfig {
}

xml:
<context:component-scan base-package="soundsystem" />

• Wiring beans with Java

@Configuration
public class CDPlayerConfig {

@Bean
public CompactDisc sgtPeppers() {
return new SgtPeppers();
}

@Bean
public CDPlayer cdPlayer() {
return new CDPlayer(sgtPeppers());
}
}

• Wiring beans with XML

<bean id="compactDisc" class="soundsystem.SgtPeppers" />

<bean id="cdPlayer" class="soundsystem.CDPlayer">
    <constructor-arg ref="compactDisc" />
</bean>

<bean id="cdPlayer" class="soundsystem.CDPlayer">
    <property name="compactDisc" ref="compactDisc" />
</bean>

<bean id="compactDisc" class="soundsystem.BlankDisc">
    <property name="title"
        value="Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band" />
    <property name="artist" value="The Beatles" />
    <property name="tracks">
        <list>
        <value>Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band</value>
        <value>With a Little Help from My Friends</value>
        <value>Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds</value>
        <value>Getting Better</value>
        <value>Fixing a Hole</value>
        <!-- ...other tracks omitted for brevity... -->
        </list>
    </property>
</bean>
