Spring overriding beans

So we have a bean of type FunkyClass and we want to override it. How?
Well, we have the @Ordered annotation, which allows us to define the order when there are multiple beans of the same type. However, what happens when we only want one?

Spring does not automatically take the highest order. To override a bean, you can use the @Primary annotation :)

Spring's conditional annotation with properties

Spring has a nice @Conditional annotation, to have the option to have beans be available in the context depending a specific condition (Of course, this can also be realized by using @Configuration objects, but that's a different post). Ideally, we'd have the option to have a condition evaluate to true or false depending on a property. Sadly, Spring does not support that out of the box. Googling and looking around gives a partial solution, but the complete one here, so we won't forget: /** * Components annotated with ConditionalOnProperty will be registered in the spring context depending on the value of a * property defined in the propertiesBeanName properties Bean. */ @Target({ ElementType.TYPE, ElementType.METHOD }) @Retention(RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME) @Conditional(OnPropertyCondition.class) public @interface ConditionalOnProperty { /** * The name of the property. If not found, it will evaluate to false. */ String value(); /** * if the p...

Windows batch scripting god ( java runtime switch)

 I am a batch scripting god. After a lot of pain, I managed to create a script which allows me to switch jvm's easily. For posterity, and my own flex skills, the script: @echo off rem set your local path to all the JVM's here. set jvmdir=c:\code\apps\jvms if NOT EXIST %jvmdir% goto invaliddir rem a little bit of manipulation rem first we remove everything before the jvms dir call set __temp=%%path:*%jvmdir%\=%% rem then we determine everything that follows after the next slash set __lastbit=%__temp:*\=% rem then we remove that lastbit, leaving only the entire directory and a \ at the end. call set __currentpath=%%__temp:%__lastbit%=%% rem then we remove the \ at the end set __currentjvm=%__currentpath:\=% if "%~1"=="" goto missingarg if NOT EXIST %jvmdir%\%1 goto unknowndir set __currentpath=%jvmdir%\%__currentjvm% set __replacement=%jvmdir%\%1 call SET path=%%path:%__currentpath%=%__replacement%%% CALL SET JAVA_HOME=%%JAVA_HOME:%__currentpath%=%__replacemen...

Using spring's @transactional to only roll back when you really want to

In spring you can use the @Transactional annotation to marcate public methods as transactions. Any exception thrown in such an exception causes a rollback... Any exception? No, spring only does so on runtime exceptions. Checked exceptions are allowed and do not result in a rollback. And even then, you can allow some transactions to rollback, or not, with the proper properties for the transactions. For examle, @Transactional(rollbackFor="MyCheckedException.class") will rollback for a specific checked exception, and similarly, you can use @Transactional(noRollbackFor="MyUncheckedException.class") for unchecked exceptions. Of course, you might want to make it a little simpler on yourself. This article on stackoverflow shows us a different way: we can use our own transaction handler by overriding spring's. Let's have a sample interface which defines whether an exception should perform a rollback: interface ConfigurableRollback shouldRollbackOnE...
