如何使用属性中的Spring @Value来设置注释属性

Question

I'm trying to set an attribute in an annotation, using Spring @Value , but I get Type mismatch: cannot convert from Value to String . Here is what I tried:

@Table(name = "myTable", catalog = @Value("${database.myCatalog}") )

Is it possible? And if yes, how to do it?

Answer 1

I think you are a little bit confused with how Spring uses that annotation.

As far as I know, the only way that annotation can only be set at field or method/constructor parameters .

Also, for Spring to resolve it, the POJO must be a Spring managed bean. That means that it must be defined in the Spring (Web)ApplicationContext implementation to be resolved.

Your question seems like you are annotating a JPA Entity which is not a Spring bean but a Class to be used by the JPA implementation that you are using (eg Hibernate).
