忽略propertyplaceholder-Spring Boot

Question

I am using the below statement to component scan all the beans defined in my applications dependent jar file -

@ImportResource({"classpath*:/META-INF/spring.xml"})

I have a bean defined in one of the spring.xml which is looking for a property placeholder file:${service.propDir} . The bean is no longer required but I can't remove it as it is part one of the jar file. Is there a way to ignore property placeholders , if not available in this scenario?

Answer 1

Cleanly will be to remove it completely. However if you're still holding to it using a default value should work for you: ${service.propDir:defaultValue} Another option would be Using @Conditional or @Profile here is a good blog about these two
