Spring Framework is built on the Inversion of Control (IOC) principle. Dependency injection is the technique to implement IoC in applications. This article is aimed to explain core concepts of Spring IoC container and Spring Bean with example programs.
Inversion of Control is the mechanism to achieve loose-coupling between Objects dependencies. To achieve loose coupling and dynamic binding of the objects at runtime, the objects define their dependencies that are being injected by other assembler objects. Spring IoC container is the program that injects dependencies into an object and make it ready for our use. We have already looked how we can use Spring Dependency Injection to implement IoC in our applications.
Spring Framework IoC container classes are part of org.springframework.beans and org.springframework.context packages and provides us different ways to decouple the object dependencies.
BeanFactory is the root interface of Spring IoC container. ApplicationContext is the child interface of BeanFactory interface that provide Spring’s AOP features, internationalization etc. Some of the useful child-interfaces of ApplicationContext are ConfigurableApplicationContext and WebApplicationContext. Spring Framework provides a number of useful ApplicationContext implementation classes that we can use to get the context and then the Spring Bean.
Some of the useful ApplicationContext implementations that we use are;
Usually if you are working on Spring MVC application and your application is configured to use Spring Framework, Spring IoC container gets initialized when application starts and when a bean is requested, the dependencies are injected automatically.
However for standalone application, you need to initialize the container somewhere in the application and then use it to get the spring beans.
Spring Bean is nothing special, any object in the Spring framework that we initialize through Spring container is called Spring Bean. Any normal Java POJO class can be a Spring Bean if it’s configured to be initialized via container by providing configuration metadata information.
There are five scopes defined for Spring Beans.
Spring Framework is extendable and we can create our own scopes too, however most of the times we are good with the scopes provided by the framework.
Spring Framework provide three ways to configure beans to be used in the application.
Let’s look at the different aspects of Spring IoC container and Spring Bean configurations with a simple Spring project.
For my example, I am creating Spring MVC project in Spring Tool Suite. If you are new to Spring Tool Suite and Spring MVC, please read Spring MVC Tutorial with Spring Tool Suite.
The final project structure looks like below image.
Let’s look at different components one by one.
MyBean is a simple Java POJO class.
package com.journaldev.spring.beans; public class MyBean { private String name; public String getName() { return name; } public void setName(String name) { this.name = name; } }
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <beans:beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/mvc" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:beans="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans" xmlns:context="http://www.springframework.org/schema/context" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/mvc http://www.springframework.org/schema/mvc/spring-mvc.xsd http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans.xsd http://www.springframework.org/schema/context http://www.springframework.org/schema/context/spring-context.xsd"> <!-- DispatcherServlet Context: defines this servlet‘s request-processing infrastructure --> <!-- Enables the Spring MVC @Controller programming model --> <annotation-driven /> <!-- Handles HTTP GET requests for /resources/** by efficiently serving up static resources in the ${webappRoot}/resources directory --> <resources mapping="/resources/**" location="/resources/" /> <!-- Resolves views selected for rendering by @Controllers to .jsp resources in the /WEB-INF/views directory --> <beans:bean class="org.springframework.web.servlet.view.InternalResourceViewResolver"> <beans:property name="prefix" value="/WEB-INF/views/" /> <beans:property name="suffix" value=".jsp" /> </beans:bean> <context:component-scan base-package="com.journaldev.spring" /> <beans:bean name="myBean" class="com.journaldev.spring.beans.MyBean" scope="singleton" ></beans:bean> </beans:beans>
Notice that MyBean is configured using bean element with scope as singleton.
package com.journaldev.spring.beans; import org.springframework.context.annotation.Scope; import org.springframework.stereotype.Service; import org.springframework.web.context.WebApplicationContext; @Service @Scope(WebApplicationContext.SCOPE_REQUEST) public class MyAnnotatedBean { private int empId; public int getEmpId() { return empId; } public void setEmpId(int empId) { this.empId = empId; } }
MyAnnotatedBean is configured using @Service and scope is set to Request.
HomeController class will handle the HTTP requests for the home page of the application. We will inject our Spring beans to this controller class through WebApplicationContext container.
package com.journaldev.spring.controller; import java.text.DateFormat; import java.util.Date; import java.util.Locale; import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired; import org.springframework.context.annotation.Scope; import org.springframework.stereotype.Controller; import org.springframework.ui.Model; import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMapping; import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMethod; import com.journaldev.spring.beans.MyAnnotatedBean; import com.journaldev.spring.beans.MyBean; @Controller @Scope("request") public class HomeController { private MyBean myBean; private MyAnnotatedBean myAnnotatedBean; @Autowired public void setMyBean(MyBean myBean) { this.myBean = myBean; } @Autowired public void setMyAnnotatedBean(MyAnnotatedBean obj) { this.myAnnotatedBean = obj; } /** * Simply selects the home view to render by returning its name. */ @RequestMapping(value = "/", method = RequestMethod.GET) public String home(Locale locale, Model model) { System.out.println("MyBean hashcode="+myBean.hashCode()); System.out.println("MyAnnotatedBean hashcode="+myAnnotatedBean.hashCode()); Date date = new Date(); DateFormat dateFormat = DateFormat.getDateTimeInstance(DateFormat.LONG, DateFormat.LONG, locale); String formattedDate = dateFormat.format(date); model.addAttribute("serverTime", formattedDate ); return "home"; } }
We need to configure our application for Spring Framework, so that the configuration metadata will get loaded and context will be initialized.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <web-app version="2.5" xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_2_5.xsd"> <!-- The definition of the Root Spring Container shared by all Servlets and Filters --> <context-param> <param-name>contextConfigLocation</param-name> <param-value>/WEB-INF/spring/root-context.xml</param-value> </context-param> <!-- Creates the Spring Container shared by all Servlets and Filters --> <listener> <listener-class>org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoaderListener</listener-class> </listener> <!-- Processes application requests --> <servlet> <servlet-name>appServlet</servlet-name> <servlet-class>org.springframework.web.servlet.DispatcherServlet</servlet-class> <init-param> <param-name>contextConfigLocation</param-name> <param-value>/WEB-INF/spring/appServlet/servlet-context.xml</param-value> </init-param> <load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup> </servlet> <servlet-mapping> <servlet-name>appServlet</servlet-name> <url-pattern>/</url-pattern> </servlet-mapping> </web-app>
Almost all the configuration above is boiler-plate code generated by STS tool automatically.
Now when you will launch the web application, the home page will get loaded and in the console following logs will be printed when you refresh the page multiple times.
MyBean hashcode=118267258 MyAnnotatedBean hashcode=1703899856 MyBean hashcode=118267258 MyAnnotatedBean hashcode=1115599742 MyBean hashcode=118267258 MyAnnotatedBean hashcode=516457106
Notice that MyBean is configured to be singleton, so the container is always returning the same instance and hashcode is always same. Similarly for each request, a new instance of MyAnnotatedBean is created with different hashcode.
For standalone applications, we can use annotation based as well as xml based configuration. The only requirement is to initialize the context somewhere in the program before we use it.
package com.journaldev.spring.main; import java.util.Date; public class MyService { public void log(String msg){ System.out.println(new Date()+"::"+msg); } }
MyService is a simple java class with some methods.
package com.journaldev.spring.main; import org.springframework.context.annotation.Bean; import org.springframework.context.annotation.ComponentScan; import org.springframework.context.annotation.Configuration; @Configuration @ComponentScan(value="com.journaldev.spring.main") public class MyConfiguration { @Bean public MyService getService(){ return new MyService(); } }
The annotation based configuration class that will be used to initialize the Spring container.
package com.journaldev.spring.main; import org.springframework.context.annotation.AnnotationConfigApplicationContext; public class MyMainClass { public static void main(String[] args) { AnnotationConfigApplicationContext ctx = new AnnotationConfigApplicationContext( MyConfiguration.class); MyService service = ctx.getBean(MyService.class); service.log("Hi"); MyService newService = ctx.getBean(MyService.class); System.out.println("service hashcode="+service.hashCode()); System.out.println("newService hashcode="+newService.hashCode()); ctx.close(); } }
A simple test program where we are initializing the AnnotationConfigApplicationContext context and then using getBean() method to get the instance of MyService.
Notice that I am calling getBean method two times and printing the hashcode. Since there is no scope defined for MyService, it should be singleton and hence hashcode should be the same for both the instances.
When we run the above application, we get following console output confirming our understanding.
Sat Dec 28 22:49:18 PST 2013::Hi service hashcode=678984726 newService hashcode=678984726
If you are looking for XML based configuration, just create the Spring XML config file and then initialize the context with following code snippet.
ClassPathXmlApplicationContext context = new ClassPathXmlApplicationContext(
"applicationContext.xml");
MyService app = context.getBean(MyService.class);
That’s all for the Spring IoC container and Spring Bean Scopes and Configuration details. We will look into some more features of Spring Beans in future posts. Download the Spring Bean example project from below link and play around with it for better understanding.
