    public abstract class AbstractAutowireCapableBeanFactory

extends AbstractBeanFactory
implements AutowireCapableBeanFactory

Abstract bean factory superclass that implements default bean creation, with the full capabilities specified by the `RootBeanDefinition` class. Implements the `AutowireCapableBeanFactory` interface in addition to AbstractBeanFactory's `createBean(java.lang.Class)` method.

Provides bean creation (with constructor resolution), property population, wiring (including autowiring), and initialization. Handles runtime bean references, resolves managed collections, calls initialization methods, etc. Supports autowiring constructors, properties by name, and properties by type.

The main template method to be implemented by subclasses is `AutowireCapableBeanFactory.resolveDependency(DependencyDescriptor, String, Set, TypeConverter)`, used for autowiring by type. In case of a factory which is capable of searching its bean definitions, matching beans will typically be implemented through such a search. For other factory styles, simplified matching algorithms can be implemented.

Note that this class does not assume or implement bean definition registry capabilities. See `DefaultListableBeanFactory` for an implementation of the `ListableBeanFactory` and `BeanDefinitionRegistry` interfaces, which represent the API and SPI view of such a factory, respectively.

Constructor Detail

### AbstractAutowireCapableBeanFactory

    public AbstractAutowireCapableBeanFactory()

  Create a new AbstractAutowireCapableBeanFactory.

### AbstractAutowireCapableBeanFactory

    public AbstractAutowireCapableBeanFactory(BeanFactory parentBeanFactory)

  Create a new AbstractAutowireCapableBeanFactory with the given parent.

  Parameters:
    `parentBeanFactory` - parent bean factory, or `null` if none

Method Detail

### setInstantiationStrategy

    public void setInstantiationStrategy(InstantiationStrategy instantiationStrategy)

  Set the instantiation strategy to use for creating bean instances. Default is CglibSubclassingInstantiationStrategy.

  See Also:
    `CglibSubclassingInstantiationStrategy`

### getInstantiationStrategy

    protected InstantiationStrategy getInstantiationStrategy()

  Return the instantiation strategy to use for creating bean instances.

### setParameterNameDiscoverer

    public void setParameterNameDiscoverer(ParameterNameDiscoverer parameterNameDiscoverer)

  Set the ParameterNameDiscoverer to use for resolving method parameter names if needed (e.g. for constructor names).

  The default is `LocalVariableTableParameterNameDiscoverer`.

### getParameterNameDiscoverer

    protected ParameterNameDiscoverer getParameterNameDiscoverer()

  Return the ParameterNameDiscoverer to use for resolving method parameter names if needed.

### setAllowCircularReferences

    public void setAllowCircularReferences(boolean allowCircularReferences)

  Set whether to allow circular references between beans - and automatically try to resolve them.

  Note that circular reference resolution means that one of the involved beans will receive a reference to another bean that is not fully initialized yet. This can lead to subtle and not-so-subtle side effects on initialization; it does work fine for many scenarios, though.

  Default is "true". Turn this off to throw an exception when encountering a circular reference, disallowing them completely.

  NOTE: It is generally recommended to not rely on circular references between your beans. Refactor your application logic to have the two beans involved delegate to a third bean that encapsulates their common logic.

### setAllowRawInjectionDespiteWrapping

    public void setAllowRawInjectionDespiteWrapping(boolean allowRawInjectionDespiteWrapping)

  Set whether to allow the raw injection of a bean instance into some other bean's property, despite the injected bean eventually getting wrapped (for example, through AOP auto-proxying).

  This will only be used as a last resort in case of a circular reference that cannot be resolved otherwise: essentially, preferring a raw instance getting injected over a failure of the entire bean wiring process.

  Default is "false", as of Spring 2.0. Turn this on to allow for non-wrapped raw beans injected into some of your references, which was Spring 1.2's (arguably unclean) default behavior.

  NOTE: It is generally recommended to not rely on circular references between your beans, in particular with auto-proxying involved.

  See Also:
    `setAllowCircularReferences(boolean)`

### ignoreDependencyType

    public void ignoreDependencyType(Class type)

  Ignore the given dependency type for autowiring: for example, String. Default is none.

### ignoreDependencyInterface

    public void ignoreDependencyInterface(Class ifc)

  Ignore the given dependency interface for autowiring.

  This will typically be used by application contexts to register dependencies that are resolved in other ways, like BeanFactory through BeanFactoryAware or ApplicationContext through ApplicationContextAware.

  By default, only the BeanFactoryAware interface is ignored. For further types to ignore, invoke this method for each type.

  See Also:
    `BeanFactoryAware`, `ApplicationContextAware`

### copyConfigurationFrom

    public void copyConfigurationFrom(ConfigurableBeanFactory otherFactory)

  Description copied from interface: `ConfigurableBeanFactory`
  Copy all relevant configuration from the given other factory.

  Should include all standard configuration settings as well as BeanPostProcessors, Scopes, and factory-specific internal settings. Should not include any metadata of actual bean definitions, such as BeanDefinition objects and bean name aliases.

  Specified by:
    `copyConfigurationFrom` in interface `ConfigurableBeanFactory`
  Overrides:
    `copyConfigurationFrom` in class `AbstractBeanFactory`
  Parameters:
    `otherFactory` - the other BeanFactory to copy from

### createBean

    public <T> T createBean(Class<T> beanClass)
                 throws BeansException

  Description copied from interface: `AutowireCapableBeanFactory`
  Fully create a new bean instance of the given class.

  Performs full initialization of the bean, including all applicable `BeanPostProcessors`.

  Note: This is intended for creating a fresh instance, populating annotated fields and methods as well as applying all standard bean initialiation callbacks. It does not imply traditional by-name or by-type autowiring of properties; use `AutowireCapableBeanFactory.createBean(Class, int, boolean)` for that purposes.

  Specified by:
    `createBean` in interface `AutowireCapableBeanFactory`
  Parameters:
    `beanClass` - the class of the bean to create
  Returns:
    the new bean instance
  Throws:
    `BeansException` - if instantiation or wiring failed

### autowireBean

    public void autowireBean(Object existingBean)

  Description copied from interface: `AutowireCapableBeanFactory`
  Populate the given bean instance through applying after-instantiation callbacks and bean property post-processing (e.g. for annotation-driven injection).

  Note: This is essentially intended for (re-)populating annotated fields and methods, either for new instances or for deserialized instances. It does not imply traditional by-name or by-type autowiring of properties; use `AutowireCapableBeanFactory.autowireBeanProperties(java.lang.Object, int, boolean)` for that purposes.

  Specified by:
    `autowireBean` in interface `AutowireCapableBeanFactory`
  Parameters:
    `existingBean` - the existing bean instance

### configureBean

    public Object configureBean(Object existingBean,
                                String beanName)
                         throws BeansException

  Description copied from interface: `AutowireCapableBeanFactory`
  Configure the given raw bean: autowiring bean properties, applying bean property values, applying factory callbacks such as `setBeanName` and `setBeanFactory`, and also applying all bean post processors (including ones which might wrap the given raw bean).

  This is effectively a superset of what `AutowireCapableBeanFactory.initializeBean(java.lang.Object, java.lang.String)` provides, fully applying the configuration specified by the corresponding bean definition. Note: This method requires a bean definition for the given name!

  Specified by:
    `configureBean` in interface `AutowireCapableBeanFactory`
  Parameters:
    `existingBean` - the existing bean instance
    `beanName` - the name of the bean, to be passed to it if necessary (a bean definition of that name has to be available)
  Returns:
    the bean instance to use, either the original or a wrapped one
  Throws:
    `NoSuchBeanDefinitionException` - if there is no bean definition with the given name
    `BeansException` - if the initialization failed
  See Also:
    `AutowireCapableBeanFactory.initializeBean(java.lang.Object, java.lang.String)`

### resolveDependency

    public Object resolveDependency(DependencyDescriptor descriptor,
                                    String beanName)
                             throws BeansException

  Description copied from interface: `AutowireCapableBeanFactory`
  Resolve the specified dependency against the beans defined in this factory.

  Specified by:
    `resolveDependency` in interface `AutowireCapableBeanFactory`
  Parameters:
    `descriptor` - the descriptor for the dependency
    `beanName` - the name of the bean which declares the present dependency
  Returns:
    the resolved object, or `null` if none found
  Throws:
    `BeansException` - in dependency resolution failed

### createBean

    public Object createBean(Class beanClass,
                             int autowireMode,
                             boolean dependencyCheck)
                      throws BeansException

  Description copied from interface: `AutowireCapableBeanFactory`
  Fully create a new bean instance of the given class with the specified autowire strategy. All constants defined in this interface are supported here.

  Performs full initialization of the bean, including all applicable `BeanPostProcessors`. This is effectively a superset of what `AutowireCapableBeanFactory.autowire(java.lang.Class, int, boolean)` provides, adding `AutowireCapableBeanFactory.initializeBean(java.lang.Object, java.lang.String)` behavior.

  Specified by:
    `createBean` in interface `AutowireCapableBeanFactory`
  Parameters:
    `beanClass` - the class of the bean to create
    `autowireMode` - by name or type, using the constants in this interface
    `dependencyCheck` - whether to perform a dependency check for objects (not applicable to autowiring a constructor, thus ignored there)
  Returns:
    the new bean instance

    `BeansException` - if instantiation or wiring failed
  See Also:
    `AutowireCapableBeanFactory.AUTOWIRE_NO`, `AutowireCapableBeanFactory.AUTOWIRE_BY_NAME`, `AutowireCapableBeanFactory.AUTOWIRE_BY_TYPE`, `AutowireCapableBeanFactory.AUTOWIRE_CONSTRUCTOR`

### autowire

    public Object autowire(Class beanClass,

                    throws BeansException

  Description copied from interface: `AutowireCapableBeanFactory`
  Instantiate a new bean instance of the given class with the specified autowire strategy. All constants defined in this interface are supported here. Can also be invoked with `AUTOWIRE_NO` in order to just apply before-instantiation callbacks (e.g. for annotation-driven injection).

  Does not apply standard `BeanPostProcessors` callbacks or perform any further initialization of the bean. This interface offers distinct, fine-grained operations for those purposes, for example `AutowireCapableBeanFactory.initializeBean(java.lang.Object, java.lang.String)`. However, `InstantiationAwareBeanPostProcessor` callbacks are applied, if applicable to the construction of the instance.

  Specified by:
    `autowire` in interface `AutowireCapableBeanFactory`
  Parameters:
    `beanClass` - the class of the bean to instantiate
    `autowireMode` - by name or type, using the constants in this interface
    `dependencyCheck` - whether to perform a dependency check for object references in the bean instance (not applicable to autowiring a constructor, thus ignored there)
  Returns:
    the new bean instance
  Throws:
    `BeansException` - if instantiation or wiring failed
  See Also:
    `AutowireCapableBeanFactory.AUTOWIRE_NO`, `AutowireCapableBeanFactory.AUTOWIRE_BY_NAME`, `AutowireCapableBeanFactory.AUTOWIRE_BY_TYPE`, `AutowireCapableBeanFactory.AUTOWIRE_CONSTRUCTOR`, `AutowireCapableBeanFactory.AUTOWIRE_AUTODETECT`, `AutowireCapableBeanFactory.initializeBean(java.lang.Object, java.lang.String)`, `AutowireCapableBeanFactory.applyBeanPostProcessorsBeforeInitialization(java.lang.Object, java.lang.String)`, `AutowireCapableBeanFactory.applyBeanPostProcessorsAfterInitialization(java.lang.Object, java.lang.String)`

                                       int autowireMode,
                                       boolean dependencyCheck)

  Does not apply standard `BeanPostProcessors` callbacks or perform any further initialization of the bean. This interface offers distinct, fine-grained operations for those purposes, for example `AutowireCapableBeanFactory.initializeBean(java.lang.Object, java.lang.String)`. However, `InstantiationAwareBeanPostProcessor` callbacks are applied, if applicable to the configuration of the instance.

                                 throws BeansException

  Description copied from interface: `AutowireCapableBeanFactory`
  Apply the property values of the bean definition with the given name to the given bean instance. The bean definition can either define a fully self-contained bean, reusing its property values, or just property values meant to be used for existing bean instances.

  This method does not autowire bean properties; it just applies explicitly defined property values. Use the `AutowireCapableBeanFactory.autowireBeanProperties(java.lang.Object, int, boolean)` method to autowire an existing bean instance. Note: This method requires a bean definition for the given name!

  Does not apply standard `BeanPostProcessors` callbacks or perform any further initialization of the bean. This interface offers distinct, fine-grained operations for those purposes, for example `AutowireCapableBeanFactory.initializeBean(java.lang.Object, java.lang.String)`. However, `InstantiationAwareBeanPostProcessor` callbacks are applied, if applicable to the configuration of the instance.

  Specified by:
    `applyBeanPropertyValues` in interface `AutowireCapableBeanFactory`
  Parameters:
    `existingBean` - the existing bean instance
    `beanName` - the name of the bean definition in the bean factory (a bean definition of that name has to be available)
  Throws:
    `NoSuchBeanDefinitionException` - if there is no bean definition with the given name
    `BeansException` - if applying the property values failed
  See Also:
    `AutowireCapableBeanFactory.autowireBeanProperties(java.lang.Object, int, boolean)`

### initializeBean

    public Object initializeBean(Object existingBean,
                                 String beanName)

  Description copied from interface: `AutowireCapableBeanFactory`
  Initialize the given raw bean, applying factory callbacks such as `setBeanName` and `setBeanFactory`, also applying all bean post processors (including ones which might wrap the given raw bean).

  Note that no bean definition of the given name has to exist in the bean factory. The passed-in bean name will simply be used for callbacks but not checked against the registered bean definitions.

  Specified by:
    `initializeBean` in interface `AutowireCapableBeanFactory`
  Parameters:
    `existingBean` - the existing bean instance
    `beanName` - the name of the bean, to be passed to it if necessary (only passed to `BeanPostProcessors`)
  Returns:
    the bean instance to use, either the original or a wrapped one

    `existingBean` - the new bean instance
    `beanName` - the name of the bean
  Returns:
    the bean instance to use, either the original or a wrapped one
  Throws:
    `BeansException` - if any post-processing failed

### createBean

    protected Object createBean(String beanName,
                                RootBeanDefinition mbd,
                                Object[] args)
                         throws BeanCreationException

  Central method of this class: creates a bean instance, populates the bean instance, applies post-processors, etc.

  Specified by:
    `createBean` in class `AbstractBeanFactory`
  Parameters:
    `beanName` - the name of the bean
    `mbd` - the merged bean definition for the bean
    `args` - arguments to use if creating a prototype using explicit arguments to a static factory method. This parameter must be `null` except in this case.
  Returns:
    a new instance of the bean
  Throws:
    `BeanCreationException` - if the bean could not be created
  See Also:
    `doCreateBean(java.lang.String, org.springframework.beans.factory.support.RootBeanDefinition, java.lang.Object[])`

### doCreateBean

                                  Object[] args)

  Actually create the specified bean. Pre-creation processing has already happened at this point, e.g. checking `postProcessBeforeInstantiation` callbacks.

  Differentiates between default bean instantiation, use of a factory method, and autowiring a constructor.

  Parameters:
    `beanName` - the name of the bean
    `mbd` - the merged bean definition for the bean
    `args` - arguments to use if creating a prototype using explicit arguments to a static factory method. This parameter must be `null` except in this case.
  Returns:
    a new instance of the bean
  Throws:
    `BeanCreationException` - if the bean could not be created
  See Also:

### predictBeanType

    protected Class predictBeanType(String beanName,
                                    RootBeanDefinition mbd,
                                    Class... typesToMatch)

  Description copied from class: `AbstractBeanFactory`
  Predict the eventual bean type (of the processed bean instance) for the specified bean. Called by `AbstractBeanFactory.getType(java.lang.String)` and `AbstractBeanFactory.isTypeMatch(java.lang.String, java.lang.Class)`. Does not need to handle FactoryBeans specifically, since it is only supposed to operate on the raw bean type.

  This implementation is simplistic in that it is not able to handle factory methods and InstantiationAwareBeanPostProcessors. It only predicts the bean type correctly for a standard bean. To be overridden in subclasses, applying more sophisticated type detection.

  Overrides:
    `predictBeanType` in class `AbstractBeanFactory`
  Parameters:
    `beanName` - the name of the bean
    `mbd` - the merged bean definition to determine the type for
    `typesToMatch` - the types to match in case of internal type matching purposes (also signals that the returned `Class` will never be exposed to application code)
  Returns:
    the type of the bean, or `null` if not predictable

### getTypeForFactoryMethod

    protected Class getTypeForFactoryMethod(String beanName,
                                            RootBeanDefinition mbd,
                                            Class[] typesToMatch)

  Determine the bean type for the given bean definition which is based on a factory method. Only called if there is no singleton instance registered for the target bean already.

  This implementation determines the type matching `createBean(java.lang.Class)`'s different creation strategies. As far as possible, we'll perform static type checking to avoid creation of the target bean.

  Parameters:
    `beanName` - the name of the bean (for error handling purposes)
    `mbd` - the merged bean definition for the bean
    `typesToMatch` - the types to match in case of internal type matching purposes (also signals that the returned `Class` will never be exposed to application code)
  Returns:
    the type for the bean if determinable, or `null` else
  See Also:
    `createBean(java.lang.Class)`

### getTypeForFactoryBean

    protected Class<?> getTypeForFactoryBean(String beanName,
                                             RootBeanDefinition mbd)

  This implementation attempts to query the FactoryBean's generic parameter metadata if present to determine the object type. If not present, i.e. the FactoryBean is declared as a raw type, checks the FactoryBean's `getObjectType` method on a plain instance of the FactoryBean, without bean properties applied yet. If this doesn't return a type yet, a full creation of the FactoryBean is used as fallback (through delegation to the superclass's implementation).

  The shortcut check for a FactoryBean is only applied in case of a singleton FactoryBean. If the FactoryBean instance itself is not kept as singleton, it will be fully created to check the type of its exposed object.

  Overrides:
    `getTypeForFactoryBean` in class `AbstractBeanFactory`
  Parameters:
    `beanName` - the name of the bean
    `mbd` - the merged bean definition for the bean
  Returns:
    the type for the bean if determinable, or `null` else
  See Also:
    `FactoryBean.getObjectType()`, `AbstractBeanFactory.getBean(String)`

### getEarlyBeanReference

                                           RootBeanDefinition mbd,
                                           Object bean)

  Obtain a reference for early access to the specified bean, typically for the purpose of resolving a circular reference.

  Parameters:
    `beanName` - the name of the bean (for error handling purposes)
    `mbd` - the merged bean definition for the bean
    `bean` - the raw bean instance
  Returns:
    the object to expose as bean reference

                                                           Class beanType,
                                                           String beanName)
                                                    throws BeansException

  Apply MergedBeanDefinitionPostProcessors to the specified bean definition, invoking their `postProcessMergedBeanDefinition` methods.

                                                RootBeanDefinition mbd)

  Apply before-instantiation post-processors, resolving whether there is a before-instantiation shortcut for the specified bean.

  Parameters:
    `beanName` - the name of the bean
    `mbd` - the bean definition for the bean
  Returns:
    the shortcut-determined bean instance, or `null` if none

                                                         throws BeansException

  Apply InstantiationAwareBeanPostProcessors to the specified bean definition (by class and name), invoking their `postProcessBeforeInstantiation` methods.

  Any returned object will be used as the bean instead of actually instantiating the target bean. A `null` return value from the post-processor will result in the target bean being instantiated.

  Parameters:
    `beanClass` - the class of the bean to be instantiated
    `beanName` - the name of the bean
  Returns:
    the bean object to use instead of a default instance of the target bean, or `null`
  Throws:
    `BeansException` - if any post-processing failed

    protected BeanWrapper createBeanInstance(String beanName,
                                             RootBeanDefinition mbd,
                                             Object[] args)

  Create a new instance for the specified bean, using an appropriate instantiation strategy: factory method, constructor autowiring, or simple instantiation.

  Parameters:
    `beanName` - the name of the bean
    `mbd` - the bean definition for the bean
    `args` - arguments to use if creating a prototype using explicit arguments to a static factory method. It is invalid to use a non-null args value in any other case.

    protected BeanWrapper instantiateBean(String beanName,
                                          RootBeanDefinition mbd)

  Instantiate the given bean using its default constructor.

                                                        Object[] explicitArgs)

  Instantiate the bean using a named factory method. The method may be static, if the mbd parameter specifies a class, rather than a factoryBean, or an instance variable on a factory object itself configured using Dependency Injection.

  Parameters:
    `beanName` - the name of the bean
    `mbd` - the bean definition for the bean
    `explicitArgs` - argument values passed in programmatically via the getBean method, or `null` if none (-> use constructor argument values from bean definition)

### autowireConstructor

    protected BeanWrapper autowireConstructor(String beanName,

  Parameters:
    `beanName` - the name of the bean
    `mbd` - the bean definition for the bean
    `ctors` - the chosen candidate constructors
    `explicitArgs` - argument values passed in programmatically via the getBean method, or `null` if none (-> use constructor argument values from bean definition)

                                  MutablePropertyValues pvs)

  Fill in any missing property values with references to other beans in this factory if autowire is set to "byName".

  Parameters:
    `beanName` - the name of the bean we're wiring up. Useful for debugging messages; not used functionally.
    `mbd` - bean definition to update through autowiring
    `bw` - BeanWrapper from which we can obtain information about the bean
    `pvs` - the PropertyValues to register wired objects with

### autowireByType

  Abstract method defining "autowire by type" (bean properties by type) behavior.

  This is like PicoContainer default, in which there must be exactly one bean of the property type in the bean factory. This makes bean factories simple to configure for small namespaces, but doesn't work as well as standard Spring behavior for bigger applications.

  Parameters:
    `beanName` - the name of the bean to autowire by type
    `mbd` - the merged bean definition to update through autowiring
    `bw` - BeanWrapper from which we can obtain information about the bean

  Return an array of non-simple bean properties that are unsatisfied. These are probably unsatisfied references to other beans in the factory. Does not include simple properties like primitives or Strings.

  Parameters:
    `mbd` - the merged bean definition the bean was created with
    `bw` - the BeanWrapper the bean was created with
  Returns:
    an array of bean property names
  See Also:
    `BeanUtils.isSimpleProperty(java.lang.Class)`

  Parameters:
    `bw` - the BeanWrapper the bean was created with
  Returns:
    the filtered PropertyDescriptors

    `mbd` - the merged bean definition the bean was created with
    `pds` - the relevant property descriptors for the target bean
    `pvs` - the property values to be applied to the bean

  Initialize the given bean instance, applying factory callbacks as well as init methods and bean post processors.

  Called from `createBean(java.lang.Class)` for traditionally defined beans, and from `initializeBean(java.lang.Object, java.lang.String)` for existing bean instances.

  Parameters:
    `beanName` - the bean name in the factory (for debugging purposes)
    `bean` - the new bean instance we may need to initialize
