defineBeans

public final void defineBeans(BeansCollector beansCollector)

Description copied from class: BeanConfiguration

Defines beans for the context of this application by calling BeanConfigurationsBeansCollector.defineBean(String, Object) or BeanConfigurationsBeansCollector.defineBean(Object).

Other beans can by obtained by declaring BeanDependencys to satisfy dependencies of the defined beans through BeanConfiguration.getDependencies(). Hence, the require-methods that register BeanDependencys must not be called inside this method; this must be done earlier. And take care not to create cyclic dependencies between BeanConfigurations which are unresolvable.

This method must not be called before BeanConfiguration.isReadyToDefineBeans(BeansProvider) returned true.

Specified by:

defineBeans in class BeanConfiguration

Parameters:

beansCollector - the BeanConfigurationsBeansCollector that collects the beans
