    public class SimpleJndiBeanFactory

extends JndiLocatorSupport
implements BeanFactory

Simple JNDI-based implementation of Spring's `BeanFactory` interface. Does not support enumerating bean definitions, hence doesn't implement the `ListableBeanFactory` interface.

This factory resolves given bean names as JNDI names within the J2EE application's "java:comp/env/" namespace. It caches the resolved types for all obtained objects, and optionally also caches shareable objects (if they are explicitly marked as `shareable resource`.

The main intent of this factory is usage in combination with Spring's `CommonAnnotationBeanPostProcessor`, configured as "resourceFactory" for resolving `@Resource` annotations as JNDI objects without intermediate bean definitions. It may be used for similar lookup scenarios as well, of course, in particular if BeanFactory-style type checking is required.

### SimpleJndiBeanFactory

    public SimpleJndiBeanFactory()

Method Detail

### setShareableResources

    public void setShareableResources(String[] shareableResources)

  Set a list of names of shareable JNDI resources, which this factory is allowed to cache once obtained.

  Parameters:
    `shareableResources` - the JNDI names (typically within the "java:comp/env/" namespace)

### addShareableResource

    public void addShareableResource(String shareableResource)

  Add the name of a shareable JNDI resource, which this factory is allowed to cache once obtained.

  Parameters:
    `shareableResource` - the JNDI name (typically within the "java:comp/env/" namespace)

### getBean

    public Object getBean(String name)
                   throws BeansException

  Description copied from interface: `BeanFactory`
  Return an instance, which may be shared or independent, of the specified bean.

  This method allows a Spring BeanFactory to be used as a replacement for the Singleton or Prototype design pattern. Callers may retain references to returned objects in the case of Singleton beans.

  Translates aliases back to the corresponding canonical bean name. Will ask the parent factory if the bean cannot be found in this factory instance.

  Specified by:
    `getBean` in interface `BeanFactory`
  Parameters:
    `name` - the name of the bean to retrieve
  Returns:
    an instance of the bean
  Throws:
    `NoSuchBeanDefinitionException` - if there is no bean definition with the specified name
    `BeansException` - if the bean could not be obtained

### getBean

    public <T> T getBean(String name,
                         Class<T> requiredType)
              throws BeansException

  Description copied from interface: `BeanFactory`
  Return an instance, which may be shared or independent, of the specified bean.

  Behaves the same as `BeanFactory.getBean(String)`, but provides a measure of type safety by throwing a BeanNotOfRequiredTypeException if the bean is not of the required type. This means that ClassCastException can't be thrown on casting the result correctly, as can happen with `BeanFactory.getBean(String)`.

  Translates aliases back to the corresponding canonical bean name. Will ask the parent factory if the bean cannot be found in this factory instance.

  Specified by:
    `getBean` in interface `BeanFactory`
  Parameters:
    `name` - the name of the bean to retrieve
    `requiredType` - type the bean must match. Can be an interface or superclass of the actual class, or `null` for any match. For example, if the value is `Object.class`, this method will succeed whatever the class of the returned instance.
  Returns:
    an instance of the bean
  Throws:
    `NoSuchBeanDefinitionException` - if there's no such bean definition
    `BeanNotOfRequiredTypeException` - if the bean is not of the required type
    `BeansException` - if the bean could not be created

### getBean

    public <T> T getBean(Class<T> requiredType)
              throws BeansException

  Description copied from interface: `BeanFactory`
  Return the bean instance that uniquely matches the given object type, if any.

  Specified by:
    `getBean` in interface `BeanFactory`
  Parameters:
    `requiredType` - type the bean must match; can be an interface or superclass. `null` is disallowed.

    This method goes into `ListableBeanFactory` by-type lookup territory but may also be translated into a conventional by-name lookup based on the name of the given type. For more extensive retrieval operations across sets of beans, use `ListableBeanFactory` and/or `BeanFactoryUtils`.

  Returns:
    an instance of the single bean matching the required type
  Throws:
    `NoSuchBeanDefinitionException` - if there is not exactly one matching bean found
    `BeansException`
  See Also:
    `ListableBeanFactory`

### getBean

    public Object getBean(String name,
                          Object... args)
                   throws BeansException

  Description copied from interface: `BeanFactory`
  Return an instance, which may be shared or independent, of the specified bean.

  Allows for specifying explicit constructor arguments / factory method arguments, overriding the specified default arguments (if any) in the bean definition.

  Specified by:
    `getBean` in interface `BeanFactory`
  Parameters:
    `name` - the name of the bean to retrieve
    `args` - arguments to use if creating a prototype using explicit arguments to a static factory method. It is invalid to use a non-null args value in any other case.
  Returns:
    an instance of the bean
  Throws:
    `NoSuchBeanDefinitionException` - if there's no such bean definition
    `BeanDefinitionStoreException` - if arguments have been given but the affected bean isn't a prototype
    `BeansException` - if the bean could not be created

### containsBean

    public boolean containsBean(String name)

  Description copied from interface: `BeanFactory`
  Does this bean factory contain a bean definition or externally registered singleton instance with the given name?

  If the given name is an alias, it will be translated back to the corresponding canonical bean name.

  If this factory is hierarchical, will ask any parent factory if the bean cannot be found in this factory instance.

  If a bean definition or singleton instance matching the given name is found, this method will return `true` whether the named bean definition is concrete or abstract, lazy or eager, in scope or not. Therefore, note that a `true` return value from this method does not necessarily indicate that `BeanFactory.getBean(java.lang.String)` will be able to obtain an instance for the same name.

  Specified by:
    `containsBean` in interface `BeanFactory`
  Parameters:
    `name` - the name of the bean to query
  Returns:
    whether a bean with the given name is present

### isSingleton

    public boolean isSingleton(String name)
                        throws NoSuchBeanDefinitionException

  Description copied from interface: `BeanFactory`
  Is this bean a shared singleton? That is, will `BeanFactory.getBean(java.lang.String)` always return the same instance?

  Note: This method returning `false` does not clearly indicate independent instances. It indicates non-singleton instances, which may correspond to a scoped bean as well. Use the `BeanFactory.isPrototype(java.lang.String)` operation to explicitly check for independent instances.

  Translates aliases back to the corresponding canonical bean name. Will ask the parent factory if the bean cannot be found in this factory instance.

  Specified by:
    `isSingleton` in interface `BeanFactory`
  Parameters:
    `name` - the name of the bean to query
  Returns:
    whether this bean corresponds to a singleton instance
  Throws:
    `NoSuchBeanDefinitionException` - if there is no bean with the given name
  See Also:
    `BeanFactory.getBean(java.lang.String)`, `BeanFactory.isPrototype(java.lang.String)`

### isPrototype

    public boolean isPrototype(String name)
                        throws NoSuchBeanDefinitionException

  Description copied from interface: `BeanFactory`
  Is this bean a prototype? That is, will `BeanFactory.getBean(java.lang.String)` always return independent instances?

  Note: This method returning `false` does not clearly indicate a singleton object. It indicates non-independent instances, which may correspond to a scoped bean as well. Use the `BeanFactory.isSingleton(java.lang.String)` operation to explicitly check for a shared singleton instance.

  Translates aliases back to the corresponding canonical bean name. Will ask the parent factory if the bean cannot be found in this factory instance.

  Specified by:
    `isPrototype` in interface `BeanFactory`
  Parameters:
    `name` - the name of the bean to query
  Returns:
    whether this bean will always deliver independent instances
  Throws:
    `NoSuchBeanDefinitionException` - if there is no bean with the given name
  See Also:
    `BeanFactory.getBean(java.lang.String)`, `BeanFactory.isSingleton(java.lang.String)`

### isTypeMatch

    public boolean isTypeMatch(String name,
                               Class targetType)
                        throws NoSuchBeanDefinitionException

  Description copied from interface: `BeanFactory`
  Check whether the bean with the given name matches the specified type. More specifically, check whether a `BeanFactory.getBean(java.lang.String)` call for the given name would return an object that is assignable to the specified target type.

  Translates aliases back to the corresponding canonical bean name. Will ask the parent factory if the bean cannot be found in this factory instance.

  Specified by:
    `isTypeMatch` in interface `BeanFactory`
  Parameters:
    `name` - the name of the bean to query
    `targetType` - the type to match against
  Returns:
    `true` if the bean type matches, `false` if it doesn't match or cannot be determined yet
  Throws:
    `NoSuchBeanDefinitionException` - if there is no bean with the given name
  See Also:
    `BeanFactory.getBean(java.lang.String)`, `BeanFactory.getType(java.lang.String)`

### getType

    public Class<?> getType(String name)
                     throws NoSuchBeanDefinitionException

  Description copied from interface: `BeanFactory`
  Determine the type of the bean with the given name. More specifically, determine the type of object that `BeanFactory.getBean(java.lang.String)` would return for the given name.

  For a `FactoryBean`, return the type of object that the FactoryBean creates, as exposed by `FactoryBean.getObjectType()`.

  Translates aliases back to the corresponding canonical bean name. Will ask the parent factory if the bean cannot be found in this factory instance.

  Specified by:
    `getType` in interface `BeanFactory`
  Parameters:
    `name` - the name of the bean to query
  Returns:
    the type of the bean, or `null` if not determinable
  Throws:
    `NoSuchBeanDefinitionException` - if there is no bean with the given name
  See Also:
    `BeanFactory.getBean(java.lang.String)`, `BeanFactory.isTypeMatch(java.lang.String, java.lang.Class<?>)`

### getAliases

    public String[] getAliases(String name)

  Description copied from interface: `BeanFactory`
  Return the aliases for the given bean name, if any. All of those aliases point to the same bean when used in a `BeanFactory.getBean(java.lang.String)` call.

  If the given name is an alias, the corresponding original bean name and other aliases (if any) will be returned, with the original bean name being the first element in the array.

  Will ask the parent factory if the bean cannot be found in this factory instance.

  Specified by:
    `getAliases` in interface `BeanFactory`
  Parameters:
    `name` - the bean name to check for aliases
  Returns:
    the aliases, or an empty array if none
