Uses of BeanMetadataElement in org.springframework.beans

Classes in org.springframework.beans that implement BeanMetadataElement

Modifier and Type	Class	Description
class	BeanMetadataAttribute	Holder for a key-value style attribute that is part of a bean definition.
class	BeanMetadataAttributeAccessor	Extension of AttributeAccessorSupport, holding attributes as BeanMetadataAttribute objects in order to keep track of the definition source.

Uses of BeanMetadataElement in org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation

Subinterfaces of BeanMetadataElement in org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation

Modifier and Type	Interface	Description
interface	AnnotatedBeanDefinition	Extended BeanDefinition interface that exposes AnnotationMetadata about its bean class - without requiring the class to be loaded yet.

Classes in org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation that implement BeanMetadataElement

Modifier and Type	Class	Description
class	AnnotatedGenericBeanDefinition	Extension of the GenericBeanDefinition class, adding support for annotation metadata exposed through the AnnotatedBeanDefinition interface.

Uses of BeanMetadataElement in org.springframework.beans.factory.config

Subinterfaces of BeanMetadataElement in org.springframework.beans.factory.config

Modifier and Type	Interface	Description
interface	BeanDefinition	A BeanDefinition describes a bean instance, which has property values, constructor argument values, and further information supplied by concrete implementations.
interface	BeanReference	Interface that exposes a reference to a bean name in an abstract fashion.

Classes in org.springframework.beans.factory.config that implement BeanMetadataElement

Modifier and Type	Class	Description
class	BeanDefinitionHolder	Holder for a BeanDefinition with name and aliases.
static class	ConstructorArgumentValues.ValueHolder	Holder for a constructor argument value, with an optional type attribute indicating the target type of the actual constructor argument.
class	RuntimeBeanNameReference	Immutable placeholder class used for a property value object when it's a reference to another bean name in the factory, to be resolved at runtime.
class	RuntimeBeanReference	Immutable placeholder class used for a property value object when it's a reference to another bean in the factory, to be resolved at runtime.

Uses of BeanMetadataElement in org.springframework.beans.factory.parsing

Subinterfaces of BeanMetadataElement in org.springframework.beans.factory.parsing

Modifier and Type	Interface	Description
interface	ComponentDefinition	Interface that describes the logical view of a set of BeanDefinitions and BeanReferences as presented in some configuration context.
interface	DefaultsDefinition	Marker interface for a defaults definition, extending BeanMetadataElement to inherit source exposure.

Classes in org.springframework.beans.factory.parsing that implement BeanMetadataElement

Modifier and Type	Class	Description
class	AbstractComponentDefinition	Base implementation of ComponentDefinition that provides a basic implementation of AbstractComponentDefinition.getDescription() which delegates to ComponentDefinition.getName().
class	AliasDefinition	Representation of an alias that has been registered during the parsing process.
class	BeanComponentDefinition	ComponentDefinition based on a standard BeanDefinition, exposing the given bean definition as well as inner bean definitions and bean references for the given bean.
class	CompositeComponentDefinition	ComponentDefinition implementation that holds one or more nested ComponentDefinition instances, aggregating them into a named group of components.
class	ImportDefinition	Representation of an import that has been processed during the parsing process.

Uses of BeanMetadataElement in org.springframework.beans.factory.support

Classes in org.springframework.beans.factory.support that implement BeanMetadataElement

Modifier and Type	Class	Description
class	AbstractBeanDefinition	Base class for concrete, full-fledged BeanDefinition classes, factoring out common properties of GenericBeanDefinition, RootBeanDefinition, and ChildBeanDefinition.
class	AutowireCandidateQualifier	Qualifier for resolving autowire candidates.
class	ChildBeanDefinition	Bean definition for beans which inherit settings from their parent.
class	GenericBeanDefinition	GenericBeanDefinition is a one-stop shop for declarative bean definition purposes.
class	LookupOverride	Represents an override of a method that looks up an object in the same IoC context, either by bean name or by bean type (based on the declared method return type).
class	ManagedArray	Tag collection class used to hold managed array elements, which may include runtime bean references (to be resolved into bean objects).
class	ManagedList<E>	Tag collection class used to hold managed List elements, which may include runtime bean references (to be resolved into bean objects).
class	ManagedMap<K,V>	Tag collection class used to hold managed Map values, which may include runtime bean references (to be resolved into bean objects).
