spring扩展点系列：BeanFactoryPostProcessor

[TFdream]

BeanFactoryPostProcessor和BeanPostProcessor都是spring初始化bean的扩展点。两个接口非常相似。

BeanFactoryPostProcessor可以对bean的定义（配置元数据）进行处理。也就是说，Spring IoC容器允许BeanFactoryPostProcessor在容器实际实例化任何其它的bean之前读取配置元数据，并有可能修改它。如果你愿意，你可以配置多个BeanFactoryPostProcessor。你还能通过设置'order'属性来控制BeanFactoryPostProcessor的执行次序。

通过beanFactory可以获取bean的示例或定义等。同时可以修改bean的属性，这是和BeanPostProcessor最大的区别。

BeanFactoryPostProcessor定义如下：

package org.springframework.beans.factory.config;

import org.springframework.beans.BeansException;

public interface BeanFactoryPostProcessor {

	/**
	 * Modify the application context's internal bean factory after its standard
	 * initialization. All bean definitions will have been loaded, but no beans
	 * will have been instantiated yet. This allows for overriding or adding
	 * properties even to eager-initializing beans.
	 * @param beanFactory the bean factory used by the application context
	 * @throws org.springframework.beans.BeansException in case of errors
	 */
	void postProcessBeanFactory(ConfigurableListableBeanFactory beanFactory) throws BeansException;

}
