Spring Autowiring byType

In this tutorial you will see an example of spring autowiring byType. The Autowiring is done by matching data type of property name.

Student.java

package spring.noautowiring.mode;

import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;

public class Student {
  @Autowired
  private String age;
  private String name;
  private String address;

  public String getAge() {
    return age;
  }

  public void setAge(String age) {
    this.age = age;
  }

  public String getName() {
    return name;
  }

  public void setName(String name) {
    this.name = name;
  }

  public String getAddress() {
    return address;
  }

  public void setAddress(String address) {
    this.address = address;
  }

  @Override
  public String toString() {
    return "Student [name=" + name + ", age=" + age +
                          ",address=" + address + "]";
  }

}

College.java

package spring.noautowiring.mode;

import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;

public class College {

  private Student student;
  private String registration;
  private String year;

  @Autowired
  public void setStudent(Student student) {
    this.student = student;
  }

  public String getRegistration() {
    return registration;
  }

  public void setRegistration(String registration) {
    this.registration = registration;
  }

  public String getYear() {
    return year;
  }

  public void setYear(String year) {
    this.year = year;
  }

  @Override
  public String toString() {
    return "College [registration=" + registration + ", Student=" + student +
                          ",year=" + year + "]";
  }

}

AutowireMain.java

package spring.noautowiring.mode;

import org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanFactory;
import org.springframework.context.support.ClassPathXmlApplicationContext;

public class AutowireMain {
  public static void main(String[] args) {
    BeanFactory beanfactory = new ClassPathXmlApplicationContext(
        "context.xml");
    College coll = (College) beanfactory.getBean("college");
    System.out.println(coll);
  }
}

context.xml

 <!-- no auto-Wiring mode -->

  <bean id="college" 

	class="spring.noautowiring.mode.College" 
	autowire="byType">

    

    <property name="registration" value="BL001" />

    <property name="year" value="2001" />

  </bean>



  <bean id="student" class="spring.noautowiring.mode.Student">

    <property name="address" value="Delhi" />

    <property name="age" value="22" />

    <property name="name" value="Raj" />

  </bean>

<!-- End -->

	

</beans>

When you run this application it will display output as shown below:

College [registration=BL001, Student=Student [name=Raj, age=22,address=Delhi],year=2001]
