I am using Spring boot. I have some question regarding the spring boot beans.
But I have doubt
I use bean which are default scope that is singleton. So they will have only one instance per application.
#Configuration
public class ...{
#Bean
public void method() {}
}
And
Now i use bean which scope is prototype. So they will have each instance per request.
#Configuration
public class ...{
#Bean
#Scope("prototype")
public void method() {}
}
But
I want single instance per user..? all request use single instance per user.
#Configuration
class Abc {
#Bean
#Scope("session")
public YourBean getYourBean() {
return new YourBean();
}
}
You will need to define one singleton bean with a property using prototype bean:(xml example)
With #bean definition:
#Component
#Scope("singleton")
public class SingletonBean {
// ..
#Autowired
private PrototypeBean prototypeBean;
//..
}
#Component
#Scope("prototype")
public class PrototypeBean {
//.......
}

I use Spring 4.2.8 and I do have the service class below. If this class has the name ScheduleEmailCreateAndSendServiceImpl than everything works fine (method generalEmailMessage is invoked at start time in order to create the Spring Bean)
If I rename this class to EmailCreateAndSendServiceImpl than method generalEmailMessage will not be invoked at start time - does anyone know why?
#Service("emailCreateAndSendService")
public class ScheduleEmailCreateAndSendServiceImpl extends AbstractService
implements EmailService {
protected EmailMessage generalMessage;
#Override
public void createAndSendMessage(String receiver, boolean emailActive, Object[] values) throws BusinessException {
// create and send email
}
#Bean
public EmailMessage generalEmailMessage() {
this.generalMessage = new GeneralEmailInformationMessage();
return generalMessage;
}
}
[EDIT]
with this code it is the same
#Configuration
public #Data class ScheduleGeneralEmailConfiguration {
protected EmailMessage generalMessage;
public ScheduleGeneralEmailConfiguration() {
System.out.println("asdf");
}
#Bean
public EmailMessage generalEmailMessage() {
this.generalMessage = new GeneralEmailInformationMessage();
return generalMessage;
}
}
#Bean annotated methods should be in #Configuration annotated class.
You can also put the #Bean annotated methods in the main class of the Spring Boot application annotated with #SpringBootApplication which encapsulates #Configuration, #EnableAutoConfiguration, and #ComponentScan annotations.
Make sure your #Configuration annotated class is placed in the same package or sub package of the Spring Boot Application class
This website says beans registered inside component classes are not cglib proxied and do not go through the spring container. So does this mean if I register a bean inside a component class (snippet below), adding #Scope("request") wont make any difference, and a new instance of AnotherBean will always be created whenever testBean.anotherBean() is called from some external class?
#Component
public class TestBean {
#Bean
#Scope("request")
public AnotherBean anotherBean() {
return new AnotherBean();
}
}
The bean that is not cglib proxied is the #Component itself, not the bean registered using the #Bean annotation. If you are not calling the anotherBean method explicitly, it won't make a difference because the proxy is used to return the bean when the method annotated with #Bean is called. See the example
The bean testBeanComponent is not cglib proxied :
#Component
public class TestBeanComponent {
#Bean
#Scope("request")
public AnotherBeanComponent anotherBeanComponent() {
return new AnotherBeanComponent();
}
}
The bean testBeanConfiguration is cglib proxied :
#Configuration
public class TestBeanConfiguration {
#Bean
#Scope("request")
public AnotherBeanConfiguration anotherBeanConfiguration() {
return new AnotherBeanConfiguration();
}
}
What it mean :
#Service
public class TestService {
#Autowired //Inject a normal bean
private TestBeanComponent testBeanComponent;
#Autowired //Inject a proxy
private TestBeanConfiguration testBeanConfiguration;
public void test() {
//Calling anotherBeanComponent always return a new instance of AnotherBeanComponent
testBeanComponent.anotherBeanComponent()
.equals(testBeanComponent.anotherBeanComponent()); // is false
//Calling anotherBeanConfiguration return the bean managed by the container
testBeanConfiguration.anotherBeanConfiguration()
.equals(testBeanConfiguration.anotherBeanConfiguration()); // is true
}
}
But if you are injecting the bean instead of using the method, everything will work as you expected :
#Service
public class TestService2 {
#Autowired //Inject a proxy with scope request
private AnotherBeanComponent anotherBeanComponent;
#Autowired //Inject a proxy with scope request
private AnotherBeanConfiguration anotherBeanConfiguration;
}
There have been several arguments around not using ApplicationContext.getBean() to get a bean reference, of which most are based on logic that it violates the principles of Inversion of control.
Is there a way to get reference to prototype scoped bean without calling context.getBean() ?
Consider to use Spring Boot!
Than you can do something like this...
Runner:
#SpringBootApplication
public class Runner{
public static void main(String[] args) {
SpringApplication.run(Runner.class, args);
}
}
Some Controller:
#Controller
public class MyController {
// Spring Boot injecting beans through #Autowired annotation
#Autowired
#Qualifier("CoolFeature") // Use Qualifier annotation to mark a class, if for example
// you have more than one concreate class with differant implementations of some interface.
private CoolFeature myFeature;
public void testFeature(){
myFeature.doStuff();
}
}
Some cool feature:
#Component("CoolFeature") // To identify with Qualifier
public class CoolFeature{
#Autowired
private SomeOtherBean utilityBean;
public void doStuff(){
// use utilityBean in some way
}
}
No XML files to handle.
We can still access context for manual configurations if needed.

This type of problem can be solved using method injection, which is described in more detail here: https://docs.spring.io/spring/docs/current/spring-framework-reference/html/beans.html#beans-factory-method-injection
This is the most common approach to create prototype bean:
abstract class MyService {
void doSome() {
OtherService otherService = getOtherService();
}
abstract OtherService getOtherService();
}
#Configuration
class Config {
#Bean
public MyService myService() {
return new MyService() {
OtherService getOtherService() {
return otherService();
}
}
}
#Bean
#Scope("prototype")
public OtherService otherService() {
return new OtherService();
}
}
In xml defined beans you can define two classes like this
<bean id="classA" class="ex.ClassA"/>
<bean id="classB" class="ex.classB"/>
Then in your java implementation you can autowire the constructor of one of the classes in example
public class ClassA {
#autowired
public(ClassB classB){
this.classB = classB;
}
Now how does one do that with java config beans since in example
#Bean
public ClassA classA(){
return new ClassB();
}
#Bean
public ClassB classB(){
return new ClassB()
}
the compiler would warn that Class a does not have any such constructor, how does one do that in java, with autowiring?
Thanks all
See http://docs.spring.io/spring/docs/current/spring-framework-reference/htmlsingle/#beans-java-injecting-dependencies
Note that the ClassB bean is implicitly a singleton. The use of the annotation #Configuration on the Config class ensures that Spring returns the singleton instance of the ClassB bean in the classB() call.
#Configuration
public class Config {
#Bean
public ClassA classA(){
return new ClassA( classB() );
}
#Bean
public ClassB classB(){
return new ClassB();
}
}
Or you may prefer this approach (Spring 4.2.1+ required)
#Configuration
#Import(ClassA.class)
public class Config {
#Bean
public ClassB classB(){
return new ClassB();
}
}
#Component
public class ClassA {
#Autowired
public ClassA(ClassB classB) {
...
}
}
Pass the beans you want as parameters to the #Bean method, or use component scanning to create the dependent bean implicitly.
I have a requirement of creating a prototype bean that's stateful, i.e. take parameters in constructor.
I tried to use #Configuration to create that bean, but found it doesn't work if I use a parameterized constructor...
Note that the parameters I want to pass are NOT spring beans...they are simple POJOs...so I can't autowire them.
So this is what I want to do -
#Configuration
public class MyClassFactory {
#Bean
public MyClass getMyClass(Pojo1 pojo1, Pojo2 pojo2) {
return new MyClass (pojo1, pojo2);
}
}
#Scope("PROTOTYPE")
public class MyClass {
public MyClass(Pojo1 pojo1, Pojo2 pojo2) {
...
}
#Autowired SomeService1 service1;
#Autowired SomeService1 service2;
...
}
Of course I can make MyClass applicationContextAware, and pick up services from it, rather than making it a prototype bean...but was wondering why above pattern is not allowed...
