## org.springframework.web.context.support
Class AbstractRefreshableWebApplicationContext

    java.lang.Object
      org.springframework.core.io.DefaultResourceLoader
          org.springframework.context.support.AbstractApplicationContext
              org.springframework.context.support.AbstractRefreshableApplicationContext
                  org.springframework.context.support.AbstractRefreshableConfigApplicationContext
                      org.springframework.web.context.support.AbstractRefreshableWebApplicationContext

All Implemented Interfaces:
  BeanFactory, BeanNameAware, DisposableBean, HierarchicalBeanFactory, InitializingBean, ListableBeanFactory, ApplicationContext, ApplicationEventPublisher, ConfigurableApplicationContext, Lifecycle, MessageSource, ResourceLoader, ResourcePatternResolver, ThemeSource, ConfigurableWebApplicationContext, WebApplicationContext

Direct Known Subclasses:
  XmlWebApplicationContext

    public abstract class AbstractRefreshableWebApplicationContext

extends AbstractRefreshableConfigApplicationContext
implements ConfigurableWebApplicationContext, ThemeSource

`AbstractRefreshableApplicationContext` subclass which implements the `ConfigurableWebApplicationContext` interface for web environments. Provides a "configLocations" property, to be populated through the ConfigurableWebApplicationContext interface on web application startup.

This class is as easy to subclass as AbstractRefreshableApplicationContext: All you need to implements is the `AbstractRefreshableApplicationContext.loadBeanDefinitions(org.springframework.beans.factory.support.DefaultListableBeanFactory)` method; see the superclass javadoc for details. Note that implementations are supposed to load bean definitions from the files specified by the locations returned by the `getConfigLocations()` method.

Interprets resource paths as servlet context resources, i.e. as paths beneath the web application root. Absolute paths, e.g. for files outside the web app root, can be accessed via "file:" URLs, as implemented by `DefaultResourceLoader`.

In addition to the special beans detected by `AbstractApplicationContext`, this class detects a bean of type `ThemeSource` in the context, under the special bean name "themeSource".

This is the web context to be subclassed for a different bean definition format. Such a context implementation can be specified as "contextClass" context-param for `ContextLoader` or as "contextClass" init-param for `FrameworkServlet`, replacing the default `XmlWebApplicationContext`. It will then automatically receive the "contextConfigLocation" context-param or init-param, respectively.

Note that WebApplicationContext implementations are generally supposed to configure themselves based on the configuration received through the `ConfigurableWebApplicationContext` interface. In contrast, a standalone application context might allow for configuration in custom startup code (for example, `GenericApplicationContext`).

Constructor Detail

### AbstractRefreshableWebApplicationContext

    public AbstractRefreshableWebApplicationContext()

Method Detail

### setServletContext

    public void setServletContext(ServletContext servletContext)

  Description copied from interface: `ConfigurableWebApplicationContext`
  Set the ServletContext for this web application context.

  Does not cause an initialization of the context: refresh needs to be called after the setting of all configuration properties.

  Specified by:
    `setServletContext` in interface `ConfigurableWebApplicationContext`
  See Also:
    `ConfigurableApplicationContext.refresh()`

### getServletContext

    public ServletContext getServletContext()

  Description copied from interface: `WebApplicationContext`
  Return the standard Servlet API ServletContext for this application.

  Specified by:
    `getServletContext` in interface `WebApplicationContext`

### setServletConfig

    public void setServletConfig(ServletConfig servletConfig)

  Description copied from interface: `ConfigurableWebApplicationContext`
  Set the ServletConfig for this web application context. Only called for a WebApplicationContext that belongs to a specific Servlet.

  Specified by:
    `setServletConfig` in interface `ConfigurableWebApplicationContext`
  See Also:
    `ConfigurableApplicationContext.refresh()`

### getServletConfig

    public ServletConfig getServletConfig()

  Description copied from interface: `ConfigurableWebApplicationContext`
  Return the ServletConfig for this web application context, if any.

  Specified by:
    `getServletConfig` in interface `ConfigurableWebApplicationContext`

### setNamespace

    public void setNamespace(String namespace)

  Description copied from interface: `ConfigurableWebApplicationContext`
  Set the namespace for this web application context, to be used for building a default context config location. The root web application context does not have a namespace.

  Specified by:
    `setNamespace` in interface `ConfigurableWebApplicationContext`

### getNamespace

    public String getNamespace()

  Description copied from interface: `ConfigurableWebApplicationContext`
  Return the namespace for this web application context, if any.

  Specified by:
    `getNamespace` in interface `ConfigurableWebApplicationContext`

### getConfigLocations

    public String[] getConfigLocations()

  Description copied from class: `AbstractRefreshableConfigApplicationContext`
  Return an array of resource locations, referring to the XML bean definition files that this context should be built with. Can also include location patterns, which will get resolved via a ResourcePatternResolver.

  The default implementation returns `null`. Subclasses can override this to provide a set of resource locations to load bean definitions from.

  Specified by:
    `getConfigLocations` in interface `ConfigurableWebApplicationContext`
  Overrides:
    `getConfigLocations` in class `AbstractRefreshableConfigApplicationContext`
  Returns:
    an array of resource locations, or `null` if none
  See Also:
    `AbstractApplicationContext.getResources(java.lang.String)`, `AbstractApplicationContext.getResourcePatternResolver()`

### postProcessBeanFactory

    protected void postProcessBeanFactory(ConfigurableListableBeanFactory beanFactory)

  Register request/session scopes, a `ServletContextAwareProcessor`, etc.

  Overrides:
    `postProcessBeanFactory` in class `AbstractApplicationContext`
  Parameters:
    `beanFactory` - the bean factory used by the application context

### getResourceByPath

    protected Resource getResourceByPath(String path)

  This implementation supports file paths beneath the root of the ServletContext.

  Overrides:
    `getResourceByPath` in class `DefaultResourceLoader`
  Parameters:
    `path` - the path to the resource
  Returns:
    the corresponding Resource handle
  See Also:
    `ServletContextResource`

### getResourcePatternResolver

    protected ResourcePatternResolver getResourcePatternResolver()

  This implementation supports pattern matching in unexpanded WARs too.

  Overrides:
    `getResourcePatternResolver` in class `AbstractApplicationContext`
  Returns:
    the ResourcePatternResolver for this context
  See Also:
    `ServletContextResourcePatternResolver`

### onRefresh

    protected void onRefresh()

  Initialize the theme capability.

  Overrides:
    `onRefresh` in class `AbstractApplicationContext`
  See Also:
    `AbstractApplicationContext.refresh()`

### getTheme

    public Theme getTheme(String themeName)

  Description copied from interface: `ThemeSource`
  Return the Theme instance for the given theme name.

  The returned Theme will resolve theme-specific messages, codes, file paths, etc (e.g. CSS and image files in a web environment).

  Specified by:
    `getTheme` in interface `ThemeSource`
  Parameters:
    `themeName` - the name of the theme
  Returns:
    the corresponding Theme, or `null` if none defined. Note that, by convention, a ThemeSource should at least be able to return a default Theme for the default theme name "theme" but may also return default Themes for other theme names.

    `AbstractThemeResolver.ORIGINAL_DEFAULT_THEME_NAME`
