初始入口:
org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoaderListener
org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoader
类的继承关系图如下:
可以看到这个Listener实现了Servlet标准提供的接口，这个listener只有两个方法是 用来监听web容器启动和关闭动作的：
/** * Receives notification that the web application initialization * process is starting. * * <p>All ServletContextListeners are notified of context // 这里已经说了，使用的观察者模式，容器启动会调用 * initialization before any filters or servlets in the web * application are initialized. * * @param sce the ServletContextEvent containing the ServletContext * that is being initialized */ public void contextInitialized(ServletContextEvent sce); /** * Receives notification that the ServletContext is about to be * shut down. * * <p>All servlets and filters will have been destroyed before any * ServletContextListeners are notified of context * destruction. * * @param sce the ServletContextEvent containing the ServletContext //这里也说了，容器关闭会调用 * that is being destroyed */ public void contextDestroyed(ServletContextEvent sce);
当然ContextLoaderListener实现了这两个方法：
/** * Initialize the root web application context. */ @Override public void contextInitialized(ServletContextEvent event) { initWebApplicationContext(event.getServletContext()); //这个方法在父类ContextLoader中实现 ，这里只是把ServletContext当参数传过去了，因为在执行逻辑中需要用到很多与web容器相关的参数 } /** * Close the root web application context. */ @Override public void contextDestroyed(ServletContextEvent event) { closeWebApplicationContext(event.getServletContext()); ContextCleanupListener.cleanupAttributes(event.getServletContext()); //同上 }
切换到父类ContextLoader 中initWebApplicationContext方法中:
/** * Initialize Spring's web application context for the given servlet context, * using the application context provided at construction time, or creating a new one * according to the "{@link #CONTEXT_CLASS_PARAM contextClass}" and * "{@link #CONFIG_LOCATION_PARAM contextConfigLocation}" context-params. * @param servletContext current servlet context * @return the new WebApplicationContext * @see #ContextLoader(WebApplicationContext) * @see #CONTEXT_CLASS_PARAM * @see #CONFIG_LOCATION_PARAM */ public WebApplicationContext initWebApplicationContext(ServletContext servletContext) { 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!"); } Log logger = LogFactory.getLog(ContextLoader.class); servletContext.log("Initializing Spring root WebApplicationContext"); if (logger.isInfoEnabled()) { logger.info("Root WebApplicationContext: initialization started"); } long startTime = System.currentTimeMillis(); try { // Store context in local instance variable, to guarantee that // it is available on ServletContext shutdown. if (this.context == null) { this.context = createWebApplicationContext(servletContext); //这里先创建Web环境的 ApplicationContext ，这个Context的地位就类似于ServletContext,是获取Bean的入口 } if (this.context instanceof ConfigurableWebApplicationContext) { ConfigurableWebApplicationContext cwac = (ConfigurableWebApplicationContext) this.context; if (!cwac.isActive()) { // The context has not yet been refreshed -> provide services such as // setting the parent context, setting the application context id, etc if (cwac.getParent() == null) { // The context instance was injected without an explicit parent -> // determine parent for root web application context, if any. ApplicationContext parent = loadParentContext(servletContext); cwac.setParent(parent); } configureAndRefreshWebApplicationContext(cwac, servletContext); //这才是最核心的方法，看名字就知道 配置并刷新 ApplicationContext,这个动作完成了类示例的创建，初始化和 注册事件的发布，各种监听的执行, 为 } //DispatcherServlet这个核心类执行Handler的注册做好了万全准备 } servletContext.setAttribute(WebApplicationContext.ROOT_WEB_APPLICATION_CONTEXT_ATTRIBUTE, this.context); ClassLoader ccl = Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader(); if (ccl == ContextLoader.class.getClassLoader()) { currentContext = this.context; } else if (ccl != null) { currentContextPerThread.put(ccl, this.context); //这里可以看到把当前Context绑定到当前线程，是为了做隔离使用，保证线程安全，稍后再说这个问题 } if (logger.isDebugEnabled()) { logger.debug("Published root WebApplicationContext as ServletContext attribute with name [" + WebApplicationContext.ROOT_WEB_APPLICATION_CONTEXT_ATTRIBUTE + "]"); } if (logger.isInfoEnabled()) { long elapsedTime = System.currentTimeMillis() - startTime; logger.info("Root WebApplicationContext: initialization completed in " + elapsedTime + " ms"); } 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; } }
先来看看ApplicationContext的创建，进入createWebApplicationContext,毕竟它是获取Bean的入口。
/** * Instantiate the root WebApplicationContext for this loader, either the * default context class or a custom context class if specified. * <p>This implementation expects custom contexts to implement the * {@link ConfigurableWebApplicationContext} interface. * Can be overridden in subclasses. * <p>In addition, {@link #customizeContext} gets called prior to refreshing the * context, allowing subclasses to perform custom modifications to the context. * @param sc current servlet context * @return the root WebApplicationContext * @see ConfigurableWebApplicationContext */ protected WebApplicationContext createWebApplicationContext(ServletContext sc) { Class<?> contextClass = determineContextClass(sc); if (!ConfigurableWebApplicationContext.class.isAssignableFrom(contextClass)) { throw new ApplicationContextException("Custom context class [" + contextClass.getName() + "] is not of type [" + ConfigurableWebApplicationContext.class.getName() + "]"); } return (ConfigurableWebApplicationContext) BeanUtils.instantiateClass(contextClass); } /** * Return the WebApplicationContext implementation class to use, either the * default XmlWebApplicationContext or a custom context class if specified. * @param servletContext current servlet context * @return the WebApplicationContext implementation class to use * @see #CONTEXT_CLASS_PARAM * @see org.springframework.web.context.support.XmlWebApplicationContext */ protected Class<?> determineContextClass(ServletContext servletContext) { String contextClassName = servletContext.getInitParameter(CONTEXT_CLASS_PARAM); if (contextClassName != null) { try { return ClassUtils.forName(contextClassName, ClassUtils.getDefaultClassLoader()); } catch (ClassNotFoundException ex) { throw new ApplicationContextException( "Failed to load custom context class [" + contextClassName + "]", ex); } } else { contextClassName = defaultStrategies.getProperty(WebApplicationContext.class.getName()); try { return ClassUtils.forName(contextClassName, ContextLoader.class.getClassLoader()); } catch (ClassNotFoundException ex) { throw new ApplicationContextException( "Failed to load default context class [" + contextClassName + "]", ex); } } }
这里先从ServletContext中获取参数是contextClass的值，也就是从web.xml读取contextParam或者硬编码的方式(servlet3.0以上的版本)中获取配置指定的ApplicationContext。如果没有，使用默认的策略 XmlWebApplicationContext，这个默认的策略 defaultStrategies是在ContextLoader开头的静态代码块中初始的：
/** * Name of the class path resource (relative to the ContextLoader class) * that defines ContextLoader's default strategy names. */ private static final String DEFAULT_STRATEGIES_PATH = "ContextLoader.properties"; private static final Properties defaultStrategies; static { // Load default strategy implementations from properties file. // This is currently strictly internal and not meant to be customized // by application developers. try { ClassPathResource resource = new ClassPathResource(DEFAULT_STRATEGIES_PATH, ContextLoader.class); //这里从ContextLoader所在的包下加载一个叫ContextLoader.properties的文件，
//这个文件在spring-web包的context子包中，内容只有一行，配置了默认的WebApplicationContext defaultStrategies = PropertiesLoaderUtils.loadProperties(resource); } catch (IOException ex) { throw new IllegalStateException("Could not load 'ContextLoader.properties': " + ex.getMessage()); } }
有了ApplicationContext了，再回到上面initWebApplicationContext方法,下面就开始判断这个context是不是ConfigurableWebApplicationContext实例，如果是，并且没有执行过刷新，就执行配置刷新的方法，也就是上面提到的最核心的方法，用于bean的初始化，
这里在判断后，还获取了parent context并将它设置成当前context的parent.
当然最核心的入口，一切源头:
org.springframework.web.servlet.DispatcherServlet
该类的继承关系(使用Idea分析工具)如下:
DefaultListableBeanFactory类的继承关系:
与Bean创建时相关的Aware接口的三个直接子接口:
