## Uses of Interface
org.springframework.core.type.classreading.MetadataReader

Packages that use MetadataReader
org.springframework.context.annotation: Annotation support for context configuration, including classpath scanning for autowire candidates.
org.springframework.core.type.classreading: Core support package for type introspection through ASM-based class reading.
org.springframework.core.type.filter: Core support package for type filtering (e.g. for classpath scanning).

Uses of MetadataReader in org.springframework.context.annotation

Methods in org.springframework.context.annotation with parameters of type MetadataReader
`protected boolean` `ClassPathScanningCandidateComponentProvider.isCandidateComponent(MetadataReader metadataReader)` Determine whether the given class does not match any exclude filter and does match at least one include filter.

Constructors in org.springframework.context.annotation with parameters of type MetadataReader
`ScannedGenericBeanDefinition(MetadataReader metadataReader)` Create a new ScannedGenericBeanDefinition for the class that the given MetadataReader describes.
