    • beansWithAnnotationIncludingAncestors

      public static Map<String,Object> beansWithAnnotationIncludingAncestors(org.springframework.context.ApplicationContext ctx, Class<? extends Annotation> annotationType) throws org.springframework.beans.BeansException
      Returns all beans annotated with the specified annotation type defined in the specified application context and all its ancestor contexts.

      If both a descendant and an ancestor context contain a bean with the same id and both are annotated with the specified annotation type, the bean in the descendant context takes precedence.

      Parameters:
      ctx - the starting application context
      annotationType - the annotation type to search for
      Returns:
      a map with bean ids and beans
      Throws:
      org.springframework.beans.BeansException - if a bean could not be created

    • getNonScopedTargetBeansWithAnnotation

      public static Map<String,Object> getNonScopedTargetBeansWithAnnotation(org.springframework.context.ApplicationContext ctx, Class<? extends Annotation> annotationType)
      Helper method to find all non scoped target beans whose Class has the supplied Annotation type, returning a Map of bean names with corresponding bean instances.

      ListableBeanFactory.getBeans* methods are able to look up any beans, even both the proxy and the target variant of a scoped bean. The advised workaround is either check getBeanDefinition(candidateName).isAutowireCandidate() and skip non-autowire beans that way or simply check for beanName.startsWith(ScopedProxyUtils.TARGET_NAME_PREFIX) (which is a supported way of detecting generated scoped target beans).

      • https://jira.spring.io/browse/SPR-14887
      Parameters:
      ctx - the application context to get the annotated beans from
      annotationType - the type of annotation to look for
      Returns:
      a Map with the matching beans, containing the bean names as keys and the corresponding bean instances as values
