在根上下文和servlet上下文中创建Spring控制器bean

Question

I'm programming a Tomcat application which serves as a proxy for some internal services.

After struggling with some issues (see ApplicationContext ) , my Tomcat app nearly works as expected.

But the loggings of my app say that the controller bean is initialized twice, and I don't find the reason. I don't use XML configuration, only annotations and Java config.

It seems to me the annotation attribute excludeFilters in the root context is ignored.

See my classes below. web.xml is empty.

spring bootstrap

package com.application.config;

import javax.servlet.*;

import org.springframework.web.WebApplicationInitializer;
import org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoaderListener;
import org.springframework.web.context.support.AnnotationConfigWebApplicationContext;
import org.springframework.web.filter.DelegatingFilterProxy;
import org.springframework.web.servlet.DispatcherServlet;

public class MyAppSpringBoot implements WebApplicationInitializer
{

    @Override
    public void onStartup(ServletContext container) throws ServletException
    {
        initRootContext(container);

        initDispatcherContext(container);

        addFilters(container);
    }

    private void initDispatcherContext(ServletContext container)
    {
        AnnotationConfigWebApplicationContext servletContext = new AnnotationConfigWebApplicationContext();
        servletContext.register(MyAppDispatcherServletContext.class);
        ServletRegistration.Dynamic dispatcher =
                container.addServlet("myAppDispatcherServlet", new DispatcherServlet(servletContext));
        dispatcher.setLoadOnStartup(1);
        dispatcher.addMapping("/");
    }

    private void initRootContext(ServletContext container)
    {
        AnnotationConfigWebApplicationContext rootContext = new AnnotationConfigWebApplicationContext();
        rootContext.register(MyAppRootContext.class);
        container.addListener(new ContextLoaderListener(rootContext));
    }

    private void addFilters(ServletContext container)
    {
        FilterRegistration.Dynamic registration =
                container.addFilter("userDbAuthenticationFilter", DelegatingFilterProxy.class);
        registration.addMappingForUrlPatterns(null, false, "/mapgate/*");

        registration = container.addFilter("prepareRequestFilter", DelegatingFilterProxy.class);
        registration.addMappingForUrlPatterns(null, false, "/mapgate/*");

        registration = container.addFilter("responseTextXmlFilter", DelegatingFilterProxy.class);
        registration.addMappingForUrlPatterns(null, false, "/mapgate/*");
    }
}

Answer 1

@Configuration is a meta-annotation of @Component . In other words, it also marks a class as being a candidate for component scanning.

In your root config, you declare your component scan as

@ComponentScan(basePackages = "com.application", excludeFilters = @ComponentScan.Filter(Controller.class))

Your MyAppDispatcherServletContext class is in

package com.application.config;
// [imports]
@Configuration
@EnableWebMvc
@ComponentScan(basePackages = "com.application.controller", useDefaultFilters = false, includeFilters = @ComponentScan
        .Filter(Controller.class))
public class MyAppDispatcherServletContext

It'll therefore get picked up, get loaded, and perform its own configuration within the root context (with its own component scan).

It'll then do the same in the servlet context.

Separate your package more explicitly.
