B.4. Coding a BeanDefinitionParser - Spring Framework reference 2.0.5 参考手册中文版

As you can see, the namespace handler shown above registers so-called BeanDefinitionParsers. A BeanDefinitionParser in this case will be consulted if the namespace handler encounters an XML element of the type that has been mapped to this specific bean definition parser (which is dateformat in this case). In other words, the BeanDefinitionParser is responsible for parsing one distinct top-level XML element defined in the schema. In the parser, we'll have access to the XML element (and its subelements) and the ParserContext. The latter can be used to obtain a reference to the BeanDefinitionRegistry, for instance, as seen in the example below.

package org.springframework.samples.xml;

import java.text.SimpleDateFormat;

import org.springframework.beans.factory.config.BeanDefinition;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.config.BeanDefinitionHolder;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.support.BeanDefinitionReaderUtils;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.support.RootBeanDefinition;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.xml.BeanDefinitionParser;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.xml.ParserContext;
import org.springframework.util.StringUtils;
import org.w3c.dom.Element;

public class SimpleDateFormatBeanDefinitionParser implements BeanDefinitionParser {
   
   public BeanDefinition parse(Element element, ParserContext parserContext) {
      
      // create a RootBeanDefinition that will serve as configuration
      // holder for the 'pattern' attribute and the 'lenient' attribute
      RootBeanDefinition beanDef = new RootBeanDefinition();
      beanDef.setBeanClass(SimpleDateFormat.class);      

      // never null since the schema requires it 
      String pattern = element.getAttribute("pattern");
      beanDef.getConstructorArgumentValues().addGenericArgumentValue(pattern);

      String lenientString = element.getAttribute("lenient");
      if (StringUtils.hasText(lenientString)) {
         // won't throw exception if validation is turned on (boolean type set in schema)         
         beanDef.getPropertyValues().addPropertyValue("lenient", new Boolean(lenientString));
      }
      
      // retrieve the ID attribute that will serve as the bean identifier in the context 
      String id = element.getAttribute("id");
      
      // create a bean definition holder to be able to register the
      // bean definition with the bean definition registry
      // (obtained through the ParserContext)
      BeanDefinitionHolder holder = new BeanDefinitionHolder(beanDef, id);
      
      // register the BeanDefinitionHolder (which contains the bean definition)
      // with the BeanDefinitionRegistry
      BeanDefinitionReaderUtils.registerBeanDefinition(holder, parserContext.getRegistry());
      
      return beanDef;
   }
}

The ParserContext provides access to following properties:
