Package org.springframework.context.support

Class ConversionServiceFactoryBean

java.lang.Object
org.springframework.context.support.ConversionServiceFactoryBean
All Implemented Interfaces:
org.springframework.beans.factory.FactoryBean<org.springframework.core.convert.ConversionService>, org.springframework.beans.factory.InitializingBean
public class ConversionServiceFactoryBean extends Object implements org.springframework.beans.factory.FactoryBean<org.springframework.core.convert.ConversionService>, org.springframework.beans.factory.InitializingBean
A factory providing convenient access to a ConversionService configured with converters appropriate for most environments. Set the "converters" property to supplement the default converters.

This implementation creates a DefaultConversionService. Subclasses may override createConversionService() in order to return a GenericConversionService instance of their choosing.

Like all FactoryBean implementations, this class is suitable for use when configuring a Spring application context using Spring <beans> XML. When configuring the container with @Configuration classes, simply instantiate, configure and return the appropriate ConversionService object from a @Bean method.
