Constructor Detail

ListFactoryBean

public ListFactoryBean()
Method Detail

setSourceList

public void setSourceList(List sourceList)
Set the source List, typically populated via XML "list" elements.


setTargetListClass

public void setTargetListClass(Class targetListClass)
Set the class to use for the target List. Can be populated with a fully qualified class name when defined in a Spring application context.

Default is a java.util.ArrayList.

ArrayList

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 one to check for specific types of beans without instantiating objects, for example on autowiring.

In the case of implementations that are creating a singleton object, this method 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.

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)

createInstance

protected Object createInstance()
Description copied from class: AbstractFactoryBean
Template method that subclasses must override to construct the object returned by this factory.

Invoked on initialization of this FactoryBean in case of a singleton; else, on each AbstractFactoryBean.getObject() call.

Specified by:
createInstance in class AbstractFactoryBean
Returns:
the object returned by this factory
See Also:
AbstractFactoryBean.getObject()
