Element Detail

value

public abstract String value

A value that represents a resource in the classpath that should be scanned and loaded.

Please note that to encourage simplicity and modular design scanning of resources is limited to a single resource. If you absolutely need to scan and load multiple resources Scan annotation is repeatable.

Returns:

a resource name.

test

public abstract boolean test

An attribute that indicates whether the scan is a for testing purpose. If the scan is for testing purpose the services found by the scan will take precedence over services defined in other scans. This is useful if you wish to substitute certain services for testing purpose (i.e. load a different DataSource than the one for production during test runs):

Returns:

true if the scan is for testing purpose, false otherwise.

Default:

false
