Annotation

Container for <bean> and other elements, typically the root element in the document. Allows the definition of default values for all nested bean definitions. May itself be nested for the purpose of defining a subset of beans with certain default values or to be registered only when certain profile(s) are active. Any such nested <beans> element must be declared as the last element in the document.

default-autowire

Type:	anonymous simpleType (restriction of xsd:NMTOKEN)
Use:	optional

The default 'autowire' value; see the documentation for the 'autowire' attribute of the 'bean' element. The default is 'default'.

</xsd:attribute>

default-autowire-candidates

Type:	xsd:string, predefined
Use:	optional

A default bean name pattern for identifying autowire candidates: e.g. "*Service", "data*", "*Service*", "data*Service". Also accepts a comma-separated list of patterns: e.g. "*Service,*Dao". See the documentation for the 'autowire-candidate' attribute of the 'bean' element for the semantic details of autowire candidate beans.

default-destroy-method

Type:	xsd:string, predefined
Use:	optional

The default 'destroy-method' value; see the documentation for the 'destroy-method' attribute of the 'bean' element.

XML Source (w/o annotations (1); see within schema source)

<xsd:attribute name="default-destroy-method" type="xsd:string"/>

default-init-method

Type:	xsd:string, predefined
Use:	optional

The default 'init-method' value; see the documentation for the 'init-method' attribute of the 'bean' element.

XML Source (w/o annotations (1); see within schema source)

<xsd:attribute name="default-init-method" type="xsd:string"/>

default-lazy-init

Type:	defaultable-boolean
Use:	optional

The default 'lazy-init' value; see the documentation for the 'lazy-init' attribute of the 'bean' element.

Attribute Value

enumeration of xsd:NMTOKEN

Enumeration:	"default", "true", "false"
Default:	"default"

XML Source (w/o annotations (1); see within schema source)

<xsd:attribute default="default" name="default-lazy-init" type="defaultable-boolean"/>

default-merge

Type:	defaultable-boolean
Use:	optional

The default 'merge' value; see the documentation for the 'merge' attribute of the various collection elements. The default is 'false'.

Attribute Value

enumeration of xsd:NMTOKEN

Enumeration:	"default", "true", "false"
Default:	"default"

XML Source (w/o annotations (1); see within schema source)

<xsd:attribute default="default" name="default-merge" type="defaultable-boolean"/>

profile

Type:	xsd:string, predefined
Use:	optional

The set of profiles for which this <beans> element may be parsed. Multiple profiles can be separated by any number of spaces, commas, or semi-colons (or indeed any mixture of the three). If one or more of the specified profiles are active at time of parsing, the <beans> element will be parsed, and all of its <bean> elements registered, <import> elements followed, etc. If none of the specified profiles are active at time of parsing, then the entire element and its contents will be ignored. Profiles are activated in one of two ways: Programmatic: ConfigurableEnvironment#setActiveProfiles(String...) ConfigurableEnvironment#setDefaultProfiles(String...) Properties (typically through -D system properties, environment variables, or servlet context init params): spring.profiles.active=p1,p2 spring.profiles.default=p1,p2
