- Method Detail
  - generateAlias
```
java.lang.String generateAlias(java.lang.String prefix,
                               java.lang.String beanName,
                               java.lang.Class<?> configClass)
```
    Generates an alias for a configuration bean based on the provided prefix, bean name, and configuration class.
    This method should create a unique and consistent alias by combining the given prefix, bean name, and the simple name of the configuration class. Implementations are expected to handle cases where any of the inputs may be null or empty, ensuring a valid alias is returned.
    
    Example: Given a prefix of "app", a bean name of "dataSource", and a configuration class named DatabaseConfig, this method might return: "appDataSourceDatabaseConfig".
    
    Parameters:
    
    prefix - the prefix to be used in the alias; may be null or empty
    
    beanName - the name of the bean for which the alias is being generated; must not be null or empty
    
    configClass - the configuration class associated with the bean; may be null if no specific configuration class is associated
    
    Returns:
    
    a generated alias as a String; never null
