public interface ImportBeanDefinitionRegistrar
Interface to be implemented by types that register additional bean definitions when processing @Configuration
classes. Useful when operating at the bean definition level (as opposed to@Bean
method/instance level) is desired or necessary.Along with
@Configuration
andImportSelector
, classes of this type may be provided to the @Import
annotation (or may also be returned from anImportSelector
).An
