Spring 4 / Groovy DSL-自动装配

Question

How do I enable autowiring when using the Groovy DSL in Spring 4?

if my config.groovy file currently looks like this:

beans {
    mongoClient(com.mongodb.MongoClient)

    hello(org.abiri.HelloImpl) {
        mongoClient = mongoClient
    }
}

Previously in XML configuration, we could have done this:

<bean id="hello" class="org.abiri.HelloImpl" autowire="byType" />

And we could even enable that for the whole file:

<beans default-autowire="byType" />

What is the equivalent of those XML snippets in the new Groovy DSL, ie what do I need to do in order for the mongoClient to be autowired to hello ?

Answer 1

You need to use

hello(org.abiri.HelloImpl) { bean ->
  bean.autowire = "byType"
}

The configuration closure is passed a parameter that you can use to configure things that would be attributes on the bean element in an XML configuration. In addition to autowire this includes scope , initMethod and destroyMethod .
