public interface BeanFactoryReference
BeanFactory obtained through
a BeanFactoryLocator.
It is safe to call release() multiple times, but
getFactory() must not be called after calling release.

getFactory()
Return the
BeanFactory instance held by this reference. |
void |
release()
Indicate that the
BeanFactory instance referred to by this object is not
needed any longer by the client code which obtained the BeanFactoryReference. |
BeanFactory getFactory()
BeanFactory instance held by this reference.IllegalStateException - if invoked after release() has been calledvoid release()
BeanFactory instance referred to by this object is not
needed any longer by the client code which obtained the BeanFactoryReference.
Depending on the actual implementation of BeanFactoryLocator, and
the actual type of BeanFactory, this may possibly not actually
do anything; alternately in the case of a 'closeable' BeanFactory
or derived class (such as org.springframework.context.ApplicationContext)
may 'close' it, or may 'close' it once no more references remain.
In an EJB usage scenario this would normally be called from
ejbRemove() and ejbPassivate().
This is safe to call multiple times.
