Spring 5.0 Cookbook

By: Sherwin John C. Tragura

Overview of this book

The Spring framework has been the go-to framework for Java developers for quite some time. It enhances modularity, provides more readable code, and enables the developer to focus on developing the application while the underlying framework takes care of transaction APIs, remote APIs, JMX APIs, and JMS APIs. The upcoming version of the Spring Framework has a lot to offer, above and beyond the platform upgrade to Java 9, and this book will show you all you need to know to overcome common to advanced problems you might face. Each recipe will showcase some old and new issues and solutions, right from configuring Spring 5.0 container to testing its components. Most importantly, the book will highlight concurrent processes, asynchronous MVC and reactive programming using Reactor Core APIs. Aside from the core components, this book will also include integration of third-party technologies that are mostly needed in building enterprise applications. By the end of the book, the reader will not only be well versed with the essential concepts of Spring, but will also have mastered its latest features in a solution-oriented manner.

Creating request- and session-scoped beans


Chapter 2, Learning Dependency Injection (DI), discussed a recipe about configuring the lifespan of a bean inside the ApplicationContext container based on fetching or getBean(). These are the long-lived singleton and prototype beans. Now, we will discuss configuring the lifespan or scope of some beans which are bounded within MVC web transactions. This recipe will discuss creating short-lived beans that only last during request dispatch and session handling.

Getting started

Open the same ch03 project we have created previously and perform the following steps.

How to do it...

To create and differentiate session- and request-based beans, follow these steps:

  1. This recipe needs some custom models that can be injected into the container: either request-scoped or session-scoped beans. First, let us create a model SalaryGrade in the org.packt.dissect.mvc.model.data package. This model must be injected as a @Bean into the ApplicationContext through the annotation...
