ServletContextAttributeFactoryBean (Spring Framework) - Spring Framework 1.2.9 API 文档英文版


org.springframework.web.context.support
Class ServletContextAttributeFactoryBean

java.lang.Object
  extended by org.springframework.web.context.support.ServletContextAttributeFactoryBean
All Implemented Interfaces:
FactoryBean, ServletContextAware

public class ServletContextAttributeFactoryBean
extends Object
implements FactoryBean, ServletContextAware

FactoryBean that fetches a specific, existing ServletContext attribute. Exposes that ServletContext attribute when used as bean reference, effectively making it available as named Spring bean instance.

Intended to link in ServletContext attributes that exist before the startup of the Spring application context. Typically, such attributes will have been put there by third-party web frameworks. In a purely Spring-based web application, no such linking in of ServletContext attrutes will be necessary.

Since:
1.1.4

Constructor Detail

ServletContextAttributeFactoryBean

public ServletContextAttributeFactoryBean()
Method Detail

setAttributeName

public void setAttributeName(String attributeName)
Set the name of the ServletContext attribute to expose.


setServletContext

public void setServletContext(ServletContext servletContext)
Description copied from interface: ServletContextAware
Set the ServletContext that this object runs in.

Invoked after population of normal bean properties but before an init callback like InitializingBean's afterPropertiesSet or a custom init-method. Invoked after ApplicationContextAware's setApplicationContext.

Specified by:
setServletContext in interface ServletContextAware
Parameters:
servletContext - ServletContext object to be used by this object

getObject

public Object getObject()
                 throws Exception
Description copied from interface: FactoryBean
Return an instance (possibly shared or independent) of the object managed by this factory. As with a BeanFactory, this allows support for both the Singleton and Prototype design pattern.

If this method returns null, the factory will consider the FactoryBean as not fully initialized and throw a corresponding FactoryBeanNotInitializedException.

Specified by:
getObject in interface FactoryBean
Returns:
an instance of the bean (should not be null; a null value will be considered as an indication of incomplete initialization)
Throws:
Exception - in case of creation errors
See Also:
FactoryBeanNotInitializedException

getObjectType

public Class getObjectType()
Description copied from interface: FactoryBean
Return the type of object that this FactoryBean creates, or null if not known in advance. This allows to check for specific types of beans without instantiating objects, for example on autowiring.

For a singleton, this should try to avoid singleton creation as far as possible; it should rather estimate the type in advance. For prototypes, returning a meaningful type here is advisable too.

This method can be called before this FactoryBean has been fully initialized. It must not rely on state created during initialization; of course, it can still use such state if available.

NOTE: Autowiring will simply ignore FactoryBeans that return null here. Therefore it is highly recommended to implement this method properly, using the current state of the FactoryBean.

Specified by:
getObjectType in interface FactoryBean
Returns:
the type of object that this FactoryBean creates, or null if not known at the time of the call

ListableBeanFactory.getBeansOfType(java.lang.Class)

isSingleton

public boolean isSingleton()
Description copied from interface: FactoryBean
Is the bean managed by this factory a singleton or a prototype? That is, will getObject() always return the same object (a reference that can be cached)?

NOTE: If a FactoryBean indicates to hold a singleton object, the object returned from getObject() might get cached by the owning BeanFactory. Hence, do not return true unless the FactoryBean always exposes the same reference.

The singleton status of the FactoryBean itself will generally be provided by the owning BeanFactory; usually, it has to be defined as singleton there.

Specified by:
isSingleton in interface FactoryBean
Returns:
if this bean is a singleton

FactoryBean.getObject()
