Class FormattingConversionServiceFactoryBean

java.lang.Object
org.springframework.format.support.FormattingConversionServiceFactoryBean
All Implemented Interfaces:
org.springframework.beans.factory.Aware, org.springframework.beans.factory.FactoryBean<FormattingConversionService>, org.springframework.beans.factory.InitializingBean, EmbeddedValueResolverAware
public class FormattingConversionServiceFactoryBean extends Object implements org.springframework.beans.factory.FactoryBean<FormattingConversionService>, EmbeddedValueResolverAware, org.springframework.beans.factory.InitializingBean
A factory providing convenient access to a FormattingConversionService configured with converters and formatters for common types such as numbers, dates, and times.

Additional converters and formatters can be registered declaratively through setConverters(Set) and setFormatters(Set). Another option is to register converters and formatters in code by implementing the FormatterRegistrar interface. You can then provide the set of registrars to use through setFormatterRegistrars(Set).

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

  • Constructor Details

    • FormattingConversionServiceFactoryBean

      public FormattingConversionServiceFactoryBean()

  • Method Details

    • setConverters

      public void setConverters(Set<?> converters)
      Configure the set of custom converter objects that should be added.
      Parameters:
      converters - instances of any of the following: Converter, ConverterFactory, GenericConverter

    • setFormatters

      public void setFormatters(Set<?> formatters)
      Configure the set of custom formatter objects that should be added.
      Parameters:
      formatters - instances of Formatter or AnnotationFormatterFactory

    • setFormatterRegistrars

      public void setFormatterRegistrars(Set<FormatterRegistrar> formatterRegistrars)

      Configure the set of FormatterRegistrars to invoke to register Converters and Formatters in addition to those added declaratively via setConverters(Set) and setFormatters(Set).

      FormatterRegistrars are useful when registering multiple related converters and formatters for a formatting category, such as Date formatting. All types related needed to support the formatting category can be registered from one place.

      FormatterRegistrars can also be used to register Formatters indexed under a specific field type different from its own <T>, or when registering a Formatter from a Printer/Parser pair.

      See Also:

    • setRegisterDefaultFormatters

      public void setRegisterDefaultFormatters(boolean registerDefaultFormatters)
      Indicate whether default formatters should be registered or not.

      By default, built-in formatters are registered. This flag can be used to turn that off and rely on explicitly registered formatters only.

      Description copied from interface: EmbeddedValueResolverAware
      Set the StringValueResolver to use for resolving embedded definition values.
      Specified by:
      setEmbeddedValueResolver in interface EmbeddedValueResolverAware
