IdentifiedComponentManager (Spring Framework Extension 6.1.2 API)

java.lang.Object
- net.shibboleth.ext.spring.util.IdentifiedComponentManager<T>

Type Parameters:

T - descriptor type
```
public class IdentifiedComponentManager<T extends IdentifiedComponent>
extends Object
```
Class used for auto-wiring free-standing identified objects along with explicitly declared bean collections.
This class marries old-style "explicit" list-based configuration of a collection of objects with annotation-driven discovery of objects of the same type.

Specializations of this class are expected to fix the type and add an Autowired constructor to receive the free-standing objects.

Since:

6.1.0

    Auto-wiring point for free-standing objects.
    
    Parameters:
    
    freeObjects - free-standing objects

```
public void setComponents(@Nullable @NonnullElements
                          Collection<T> additionalObjects)
```
    Sets additional non-autowired components to merge in.
    For now, this set is prepended to any auto-wired objects and any auto-wired objects are excluded if they have the same identifier as an explicitly injected object.
    
    Parameters:
    
    additionalObjects - additional objects
  - getComponents
```
@Nonnull
@NonnullElements
public Collection<T> getComponents()
```
    Gets the final collection of merged components.
    
    Returns:
    
    merged components
