issues about Spring initialization in different environment

Question

I have some questions about spring's initialization in different environment.

1. In web container context, such as tomcat.

I knew that spring can be initialized by declaring

org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoaderListener in <listener-class> field.

It will be initialized automatically when tomcat is started. (I think this is right :-） )

2. In JUnit context

@RunWith(SpringJUnit4ClassRunner.class) @ContextConfiguration("classpath:appContext.xml")

annotations can be used to initialize the Spring context.

Under these two cases, we can use such as

@Autowired private ServiceDao serviceDao;

to use the serviceDao, and we almost never used the ApplicationContext.getBean() method.

3. In a common J2SE environment

Should I must initialize the spring context manually,

ApplicationContext appContext = new FileSystemXmlApplicationContext(xx.xml)

and then use appContext.getBean(XX) to get the bean?

in this case, can @Autowired be used?

How to do this?

Updated: I try the spring-boot, I think the variable can be autowired, because the class is annotated with @Component， and with the @ComponentScan in main class, the variable can be autowired.

But I used spring xml before, and I have some injection like this, I don't know how to autowire the variable.

<bean id="XXXMap" class="com.xx"> <property name="handlerMap"> <map> <entry key="XXX" value="YYY"/> </map> </property> </bean>

use the @component, I believe XXXMap can be autowired, but how the map is initialized?

Yes, you can use @Autowired no matter how you create the application context.

There are several ways to create an application context in a standalone application. You can of course still use the traditional XML configuration files but an alternative option worth considering is spring-boot. It allows you to create completely annotation driven applications that mostly rely on conventions over configuration. Bootstrapping a simple standalone application reduces to:

@Configuration @EnableAutoConfiguration @ComponentScan public class Main implements CommandLineRunner { @Autowired private UserService userService; public void run(String... args) throws Exception { System.out.println(userService.findUser(42L)); } public static void main(String[] args) { SpringApplication.run(Main.class, args); } }

I try the spring-boot, It's Good! <p></p> But I used it with a — NingLee

I try the spring-boot, It's Good! But I used it with the application-context xml, because I config the sessionFactory,datasource ... in the xml. I don't have an example to work without the xml. — NingLee

I have updated the question, because the comment style is too limited to express my idea. Thank you! — NingLee
