This module provides integration with Spring to enable the Spring beans to be dependency injected into Tasks. This reduces the cost of adopting OfficeFloor by Spring applications by allowing the existing bean libraries to be used within OfficeFloor.
Over time you may wish to consider moving your management of beans to use ClassManagedObjectSource and ClassWorkSource as these Sources allow the beans to be graphically configured together and not necessitate writing the configuration by hand.
| ManagedObjectSource | Interface of object | Description |
|---|---|---|
| net.officefloor.plugin.spring.beanfactory.BeanFactoryManagedObjectSource | org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanFactory | Provides wrapping of the XMLBeanFactory to provide access to obtain Spring beans. Also provides ability for beans to be dependent on objects from ManagedObjectSources (see net.officefloor.plugin.spring.beanfactory.DependencyFactoryBean). |
| net.officefloor.plugin.spring.bean.BeanManagedObjectSource | Object as per Spring configuration | Provides specific beans from the BeanFactory by name |
