## org.springframework.web.context
Interface ConfigurableWebApplicationContext

All Superinterfaces:
  ApplicationContext, ApplicationEventPublisher, BeanFactory, ConfigurableApplicationContext, HierarchicalBeanFactory, Lifecycle, ListableBeanFactory, MessageSource, ResourceLoader, ResourcePatternResolver, WebApplicationContext

All Known Implementing Classes:
  AbstractRefreshableWebApplicationContext, AnnotationConfigWebApplicationContext, StaticWebApplicationContext, XmlWebApplicationContext

    public interface ConfigurableWebApplicationContext

extends WebApplicationContext, ConfigurableApplicationContext

Interface to be implemented by configurable web application contexts. Supported by `ContextLoader` and `FrameworkServlet`.

Note: The setters of this interface need to be called before an invocation of the `ConfigurableApplicationContext.refresh()` method inherited from `ConfigurableApplicationContext`. They do not cause an initialization of the context on their own.

Field Detail

### APPLICATION_CONTEXT_ID_PREFIX

    static final String APPLICATION_CONTEXT_ID_PREFIX

  Prefix for ApplicationContext ids that refer to context path and/or servlet name.

### SERVLET_CONFIG_BEAN_NAME

    static final String SERVLET_CONFIG_BEAN_NAME

  Name of the ServletConfig environment bean in the factory.

  See Also:
    `ServletConfig`, Constant Field Values

Method Detail

### setServletContext

    void setServletContext(ServletContext servletContext)

  Set the ServletContext for this web application context.

  Does not cause an initialization of the context: refresh needs to be called after the setting of all configuration properties.

  See Also:
    `ConfigurableApplicationContext.refresh()`

### setServletConfig

    void setServletConfig(ServletConfig servletConfig)

  Set the ServletConfig for this web application context. Only called for a WebApplicationContext that belongs to a specific Servlet.

  See Also:
    `ConfigurableApplicationContext.refresh()`

### getServletConfig

    ServletConfig getServletConfig()

  Return the ServletConfig for this web application context, if any.

### setNamespace

    void setNamespace(String namespace)

  Set the namespace for this web application context, to be used for building a default context config location. The root web application context does not have a namespace.

### getNamespace

    String getNamespace()

  Return the namespace for this web application context, if any.

### setConfigLocation

    void setConfigLocation(String configLocation)

  Set the config locations for this web application context in init-param style, i.e. with distinct locations separated by commas, semicolons or whitespace.

  If not set, the implementation is supposed to use a default for the given namespace or the root web application context, as appropriate.

### setConfigLocations

    void setConfigLocations(String[] configLocations)

  Set the config locations for this web application context.

  If not set, the implementation is supposed to use a default for the given namespace or the root web application context, as appropriate.

### getConfigLocations

    String[] getConfigLocations()

  Return the config locations for this web application context, or `null` if none specified.
