Spring代码分析一:加载与初始化

来源:互联网 发布:戚家刀 淘宝 编辑:程序博客网 时间:2024/06/02 08:31

一般的Web项目都会在web.xml中加入Spring监听器,内容如下:

1
2
3
4
5
6

<listener>
        <listener-class>org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoaderListener</listener-class>
</listener>
 
<context-param>
        <param-name>contextConfigLocation</param-name>
        <param-value>classpath*:applicationContext-struts.xml,classpath*:spring/applicationContext.xml</param-value>
</context-param>

我们的问题是,Spring是何时以及如何加载我们的配置文件来初始化Bean工厂的,带着这些问题,我们展开研究:

我们先来看看web.xml中配置的监听器的类,来回答我们的问题,Spring是何时来加载我们的配置文件的:

org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoaderListener

image

它继承了javax.servlet.ServletContextListener接口。

ServletContextListener是J2EE Servlet API中的一个标准接口,

它能够监听ServletContext对象的生命周期,实际上就是监听Web应用的生命周期。

当Servlet容器启动或终止Web应用时,会触发ServletContextEvent事件,该事件由ServletContextListener来处理。

 

这里面有两个方法我们比较感兴趣:

1

7
/**
 * Create the ContextLoader to use. Can be overridden in subclasses.
 * @return the new ContextLoader
 */
protected ContextLoader createContextLoader() {
      return new ContextLoader();
}

这个方法构造一个默认的ContextLoader,ContextLoader可以理解为Spring上下文的加载器。之所以这样去定义这样一个类,是为了开发人员进行重写此方法来使用一个自定义的Spring上下文的加载器。

/**
 * Initialize the root web application context.
 */
public void contextInitialized(ServletContextEvent event) {
     this.contextLoader = createContextLoader();
     this.contextLoader.initWebApplicationContext(event.getServletContext());
}

这个方法很简单,仅仅只是调用了createContextLoader()构造了ContextLoader,并调用其初始化方法。

由此,我们可以得出结论,Spring是在Web项目启动时,通过ServletContextListener机制,来加载以及初始化Spring上下文的。

 

下面,我们好好研究一下Spring是如何加载其上下文的:

我们先定位ContextLoader类。

看看此类的initWebApplicationContext()方法(省略了不重要的语句)

 */
public WebApplicationContext initWebApplicationContext(ServletContext servletContext)
        throws IllegalStateException, BeansException {
    if (servletContext.getAttribute(WebApplicationContext.ROOT_WEB_APPLICATION_CONTEXT_ATTRIBUTE) != null) {
            throw new IllegalStateException(
                    "Cannot initialize context because there is already a root application context present - " +
                    "check whether you have multiple ContextLoader* definitions in your web.xml!");
    }
    try {
        // Determine parent for root web application context, if any.
        ApplicationContext parent = loadParentContext(servletContext);
 
        // Store context in local instance variable, to guarantee that
        // it is available on ServletContext shutdown.
        this.context = createWebApplicationContext(servletContext, parent);
        servletContext.setAttribute(WebApplicationContext.ROOT_WEB_APPLICATION_CONTEXT_ATTRIBUTE,this.context);
        currentContextPerThread.put(Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader(),this.context);
 
        return this.context;
    }catch (RuntimeException ex) {
        logger.error("Context initialization failed", ex);
        servletContext.setAttribute(WebApplicationContext.ROOT_WEB_APPLICATION_CONTEXT_ATTRIBUTE, ex);
        throw ex;
    }catch (Error err) {
        logger.error("Context initialization failed", err);
        servletContext.setAttribute(WebApplicationContext.ROOT_WEB_APPLICATION_CONTEXT_ATTRIBUTE, err);
        throw err;
    }
}

其中的有两句比较重要,我们来看看:

ApplicationContext parent = loadParentContext(servletContext);

这个方法的用途主要是用来解决Spring共享环境的,即,如果我们有多个WAR包部署在同一个服务器上,而且这些WAR都共享某一套业务逻辑层。如何共享一套业务逻辑包配置而不要每个WAR都单独配置,这时我们就可能需要Spring的共享环境了。

protected ApplicationContext loadParentContext(ServletContext servletContext) throws BeansException {
    ApplicationContext parentContext = null;
    // 从web.xml中读取父工厂的配置文件,默认为:"classpath*:beanRefContext.xml"
    String locatorFactorySelector = servletContext.getInitParameter(LOCATOR_FACTORY_SELECTOR_PARAM);
 
    // 从web.xml中读取父类工厂的名称
    String parentContextKey = servletContext.getInitParameter(LOCATOR_FACTORY_KEY_PARAM);
 
    if (parentContextKey != null) {
        // locatorFactorySelector may be null, indicating the default "classpath*:beanRefContext.xml"
        BeanFactoryLocator locator = ContextSingletonBeanFactoryLocator.getInstance(locatorFactorySelector);
        this.parentContextRef = locator.useBeanFactory(parentContextKey);
        parentContext = (ApplicationContext) this.parentContextRef.getFactory();
    }
 
    return parentContext;
}

现在我们引入BeanFactoryLocator,它是Spring配置文件的一个定位器,Spring官方给它的定义是用来查找,使用和释放一个BeanFactory或其子类的接口。下面我们看看此图:

image

ContextSingletonBeanFactoryLocator.getInstance(locatorFactorySelector);

是根据参数locatorFactorySelector去一个单例工厂中去拿一个对应的BeanFactoryLocator,也即,如果工厂中没有对应于locatorFactorySelector的BeanFactoryLocator对象,那就返回一个新的BeanFactoryLocator实例(这里是ContextSingletonBeanFactoryLocator的实例),否则,就从工厂里取现有的BeanFactoryLocator对象。

ContextSingletonBeanFactoryLocator里维护了一个静态的Map对象instances,每次需要新增BeanFactoryLocator实例时都会更新这个Map对象,这个Map对象是以配置文件名为KEY,BeanFactoryLocator对象为值。原因很简单,就是希望同一个配置文件只被初始化一次。

如果没有在web.xml中定义locatorFactorySelector这个参数,父环境的配置文件默认使用:"classpath*:beanRefContext.xml"

 

this.parentContextRef = locator.useBeanFactory(parentContextKey);

此方法定义在SingletonBeanFactoryLocator类中,同样是一个单例工厂模式,判断传入的参数parentContextKey对应的BeanFactory是否有被初始化,经过上面的ContextSingletonBeanFactoryLocator.getInstance(locatorFactorySelector)指定Spring父环境配置文件,这个方法判断指定的父环境是否被初始化,如果有则返回,没有就进行初始化。看看此方法的实现:

public BeanFactoryReference useBeanFactory(String factoryKey) throws BeansException {
    synchronized (this.bfgInstancesByKey) {
        BeanFactoryGroup bfg = (BeanFactoryGroup) this.bfgInstancesByKey.get(this.resourceLocation);
 
        if (bfg != null) {
            bfg.refCount++;
        }else {
            // Create the BeanFactory but don't initialize it.
            BeanFactory groupContext = createDefinition(this.resourceLocation, factoryKey);
 
            // Record its existence now, before instantiating any singletons.
            bfg = new BeanFactoryGroup();
            bfg.definition = groupContext;
            bfg.refCount = 1;
            this.bfgInstancesByKey.put(this.resourceLocation, bfg);
            this.bfgInstancesByObj.put(groupContext, bfg);
 
            // Now initialize the BeanFactory. This may cause a re-entrant invocation
            // of this method, but since we've already added the BeanFactory to our
            // mappings, the next time it will be found and simply have its
            // reference count incremented.
            try {
                initializeDefinition(groupContext);
            }catch (BeansException ex) {
                this.bfgInstancesByKey.remove(this.resourceLocation);
                this.bfgInstancesByObj.remove(groupContext);
                throw new BootstrapException("Unable to initialize group definition. " +
                    "Group resource name [" +this.resourceLocation + "], factory key [" + factoryKey + "]", ex);
            }
        }
 
        try {
            BeanFactory beanFactory = null;
            if (factoryKey != null) {
                beanFactory = (BeanFactory) bfg.definition.getBean(factoryKey, BeanFactory.class);
            }else if (bfg.definitioninstanceof ListableBeanFactory) {
                beanFactory = (BeanFactory) BeanFactoryUtils.beanOfType((ListableBeanFactory) bfg.definition, BeanFactory.class);
            }else {
                throw new IllegalStateException(
                    "Factory key is null, and underlying factory is not a ListableBeanFactory: " + bfg.definition);
            }
            return new CountingBeanFactoryReference(beanFactory, bfg.definition);
         }catch (BeansException ex) {
             throw new BootstrapException("Unable to return specified BeanFactory instance: factory key [" +
                    factoryKey + "], from group with resource name [" +this.resourceLocation + "]", ex);
         }
 
    }
}

此方法分为两作了两件事,

第一,初始化上下文,主意这里初始化的是从web.xml配置参数里的Spring配置文件,也是上面讲loadParentContext方法里的

BeanFactoryLocator locator = ContextSingletonBeanFactoryLocator.getInstance(locatorFactorySelector);

这句指定的参数。这里初始化的是这个配置文件所有Bean。我们指定的factoryKey对应的Bean也是其中之一。

 

第二,从已经初始化的Spring上下文环境中获取Spring父环境。

<!—========================= web.xml ========================= --> 
<context-param
        <param-name>locatorFactorySelector</param-name
        <param-value>beanRefFactory.xml</param-value
</context-param
 
<context-param
        <param-name>parentContextKey</param-name
        <param-value>factoryBeanId</param-value
</context-param>

这个一个典型的构造父环境的配置,web项目在启动的时候就会发现里面有Spring父环境的配置,那么Spring首先就会生成一个对应的配置文件为beanRefFactory.xml的BeanFactory(web.xml中的locatorFactorySelector参数指定),同时Spring在解析的时候,会发现factoryBeanId的配置同样为BeanFacotry(beanRefFactory.xml中factoryBeanId对应的Bean),所以Spring在拿父环境时就会写成:

beanFactory = (BeanFactory) bfg.definition.getBean(factoryKey, BeanFactory.class);

 

方法实现里引入了BeanFactoryGroup类。类的结构很简单

image

refCount:用来记录实例被外部引用的记数,当调用locator.useBeanFactory(parentContextKey)方法时,引用数就会加1,当调用CountingBeanFactoryReference#release方法时,引用数就会减1,当它变成0时,Spring就会释放掉它占用的内存,同时也会销毁掉它definition变量引用的BeanFactory。下次再调用locator.useBeanFactory(parentContextKey)就会重新初始化BeanFactory。说到release,请同学们参考ContextLoader中如下的两条语句:

// 在调用CountingBeanFactoryReference#release后,即使对象已经销毁,这个Map仍然可以返回locator对象。

BeanFactoryLocator locator = ContextSingletonBeanFactoryLocator.getInstance(locatorFactorySelector);

// 如果对象已经销毁,再调用此方法会再一次初始化BeanFactory 
this.parentContextRef = locator.useBeanFactory(parentContextKey);

 

bfgInstancesByKey:一个Map对象,以配置文件名为Key,配置文件解析后生成的BeanFactory构成的BeanFactoryGroup为值。

bfgInstancesByObj:一个Map对象,以BeanFactoryGroup.definitiion为Key,以BeanFactoryGroup为值。这个对象主要还是在CountingBeanFactoryReference#release时使用。

 

 

下面,我看再看看另一个地方:

if (parentContextKey != null) {
      // locatorFactorySelector may be null, indicating the default "classpath*:beanRefContext.xml"
      BeanFactoryLocator locator = ContextSingletonBeanFactoryLocator.getInstance(locatorFactorySelector);
      this.parentContextRef = locator.useBeanFactory(parentContextKey);
      parentContext = (ApplicationContext) this.parentContextRef.getFactory();
}
BeanFactoryLocator locator = ContextSingletonBeanFactoryLocator.getInstance(locatorFactorySelector);

上面这句仅仅是做了如下工作:

1
2
3
4
5
6
BeanFactoryLocator bfl = (BeanFactoryLocator) instances.get(resourceLocation);
if (bfl == null) {
       // 仅仅只是设置了ContextSingletonBeanFactoryLocator里的resourceLocation属性的值,并没有初始化工厂。
        bfl = new ContextSingletonBeanFactoryLocator(resourceLocation);
       instances.put(resourceLocation, bfl);
}

而我们使用工厂模式的时候,一般是把对象初始化好了,再给外部使用,为什么Spring这里要多此一举,在调用getInstance这后还要去调用useBeanFactory来初始化父环境?为什么Spring开发者不写成如下:

1
2
3
4
5

7
BeanFactoryLocator bfl = (BeanFactoryLocator) instances.get(resourceLocation);
if (bfl == null) {
        bfl = new ContextSingletonBeanFactoryLocator(resourceLocation);
        // 下面这句可能换成 initBeanFactory 类似语句,这里只是打个比方
         bfl.useBeanFactory(parentContextKey);
        instances.put(resourceLocation, bfl);
}

本来我认为这个写法是必须的,后来想想也不是,不过这里体现了Spring的灵活设计。如果按排上面的方法进行改造有几点不妥,1,每次都会初始化,开销比较大,可能有需求是需要延迟初始化的。2,每次都需要初始化都需要传入两个参数,分别为:配置文件名与父工厂名,3,类职责混乱,比如一个配置文件中可能定义了多个父环境的Bean,采用Spring这种方法是很清晰的:

1
2
3
4
// 返回BeanFactoryLocator方便定位某个配置文件。
BeanFactoryLocator locator = ContextSingletonBeanFactoryLocator.getInstance(“classpath*: parentBeanFactory.xml”);
parentContextRef1 = locator.useBeanFactory("parent1Key");
parentContextRef2 = locator.useBeanFactory("parent2Key");

而使用我们改造的方法,则要写成如下:

1
2
parentContextRef1 = ContextSingletonBeanFactoryLocator.getInstance("parentBeanFactory.xml","parent1Key");
parentContextRef2 = ContextSingletonBeanFactoryLocator.getInstance("parentBeanFactory.xml","parent2Key");

相当麻烦且无语,引用了也只是这个配置文件中的某一个Bean的引用,没什么意义。

这就是为什么BeanFactoryLocator接口存在的一个原因,用于查找某个配置文件中的一个BeanFactory。

// 在ContextLoader.properties里定义如下

再来看看Spring是如果进行初始化ApplicationContext的。就以XmlWebApplicationContext来说,它继承了ConfigurableWebApplicationContext这个接口,里面有个refresh()方法,我们可以看看它的实现(AbstractApplicationContext):

}

这个方法的实现由于涉及的东西比较多,比较国际化,事件等等,等我们理解了后续的源代码分析之后再重新过来进行研究。这样效率更高点。

这样关于Spring在web项目中加载及初始化的方式我们大概也了解的比较清楚了,我们可以看到,Spring就第一步,加载都已经做了很多工作,不得不佩服Spring团队的智慧。

 

最后,Spring加载完成之前,会将ApplicationContext放入ServletContext中,方便程序进行访问。

1
2
servletContext.setAttribute(WebApplicationContext.ROOT_WEB_APPLICATION_CONTEXT_ATTRIBUTE,this.context);
currentContextPerThread.put(Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader(),this.context);

其中WebApplicationContext.ROOT_WEB_APPLICATION_CONTEXT_ATTRIBUTE定义如下:

String ROOT_WEB_APPLICATION_CONTEXT_ATTRIBUTE = WebApplicationContext.class.getName() + ".ROOT";

 

Spring环境

加载组件:ContextLoaderListener

配置路径:Servlet环境初始化参数contextConfigLocation指定的路径

缺省路径: 没有缺省路径

 

Spring环境的父环境

加载组件:ContextLoaderListener和ContextSingletonBeanFactoryLocator

配置路径:Servlet环境初始化参数locatorFactorySelector指定Bean工厂定位器使用的给BeanFactory,Servlet环境初始化参数parentContextKey指定Bean工厂定位器用于查找BeanFactory的关键字

缺省路径: parentContextKey的缺省路径是classpath*:beanRefFactory.xml

 

这里我们还有一个功能相近的类没有进行说明:

ContextJndiBeanFactoryLocator
