Method Detail

createContext

public static org.springframework.context.ConfigurableApplicationContext createContext(String... paths)

See createContext(Iterable, Map)

Parameters:

paths - resource paths

Returns:

a Spring application container context created from the specified resources

createContext

public static org.springframework.context.ConfigurableApplicationContext createContext(Iterable<String> paths)

See createContext(Iterable, Map)

Parameters:

paths - resource paths

Returns:

a Spring application container context created from the specified resources

createContext

public static org.springframework.context.ConfigurableApplicationContext createContext(Iterable<String> paths,
                                                                                       Map<String,org.springframework.beans.factory.config.BeanDefinition> additionalBeans)

Construct and instantiate a Spring application container from the specified resources. By default, paths are treated as references to classpath resources, but you can prefix with "file:" to specify a file-path resource or "classpath:" to specifically specify a classpath resource. A shutdown hook is automatically registered for the application context.

Parameters:

paths - resource paths

additionalBeans - additional bean defintions to include in the context

Returns:

a Spring application container context

getBeanOfType

public static <T> T getBeanOfType(org.springframework.context.ApplicationContext context,
                                  Class<T> beanType)
