        <title>Introduction</title>
        <para>This appendix details the XML Schema-based configuration introduced in Spring 2.0 and enhanced and extended in Spring 2.5 and 3.0.</para>
        <sidebar>
            <title>DTD support?</title>
            <para>Authoring Spring configuration files using the older DTD style
            is still fully supported.</para>
            <para>Nothing will break if you forego the use of the new XML Schema-based
            approach to authoring Spring XML configuration files. All that you lose
            out on is the opportunity to have more succinct and clearer configuration.
            Regardless of whether the XML configuration is DTD- or Schema-based, in the end
            it all boils down to the same object model in the container (namely one or
            more <interfacename>BeanDefinition</interfacename> instances).</para>
        </sidebar>
        <para>The central motivation for moving to XML Schema based configuration files was
        to make Spring XML configuration easier. The <emphasis>'classic'</emphasis>
        <literal>&lt;bean/&gt;</literal>-based approach is good, but its generic-nature comes
        with a price in terms of configuration overhead.</para>
        <para>From the Spring IoC containers point-of-view, <emphasis>everything</emphasis>
        is a bean. That's great news for the Spring IoC container, because if everything is
        a bean then everything can be treated in the exact same fashion. The same, however,
        is not true from a developer's point-of-view. The objects defined in a Spring
        XML configuration file are not all generic, vanilla beans. Usually, each bean requires
        some degree of specific configuration.</para>
        <para>Spring 2.0's new XML Schema-based configuration addresses this issue.
        The <literal>&lt;bean/&gt;</literal> element is still present, and if you
        wanted to, you could continue to write the <emphasis>exact same</emphasis>
        style of Spring XML configuration using only <literal>&lt;bean/&gt;</literal>
        elements. The new XML Schema-based configuration does, however, make
        Spring XML configuration files substantially clearer to read. In addition, it allows
        you to express the intent of a bean definition.</para>
        <para>The key thing to remember is that the new custom tags work best for infrastructure
        or integration beans: for example, AOP, collections, transactions, integration with
        3rd-party frameworks such as Mule, etc., while the existing bean tags are best suited to
        application-specific beans, such as DAOs, service layer objects, validators, etc.</para>
        <para>The examples included below will hopefully convince you that the inclusion
        of XML Schema support in Spring 2.0 was a good idea. The reception in the community
        has been encouraging; also, please note the fact that this new configuration mechanism
        is totally customisable and extensible. This means you can write your own domain-specific
        configuration tags that would better represent your application's domain; the process
        involved in doing so is covered in the appendix entitled <xref linkend="extensible-xml"/>.</para>

                <para>The <literal>'xsi:schemaLocation'</literal> fragment is not actually required,

            <para>The above Spring XML configuration fragment is boilerplate that you can copy and paste
            (!) and then plug <literal>&lt;bean/&gt;</literal> definitions into like you have always
            done. However, the entire point of switching over is to
            take advantage of the new Spring 2.0 XML tags since they make configuration easier. The
            section entitled <xref linkend="xsd-config-body-schemas-util"/> demonstrates how you can
            start immediately by using some of the more common utility tags.</para>

        <para>The rest of this chapter is devoted to showing examples of the new Spring XML Schema
        based configuration, with at least one example for every new tag. The format follows
        a before and after style, with a <emphasis>before</emphasis> snippet of XML showing
        the old (but still 100% legal and supported) style, followed immediately
        by an <emphasis>after</emphasis> example showing the equivalent in the new XML Schema-based

                        This does mean that there is no longer any choice in what the bean id is (so

                        inner bean since the id doesn't have to be specified for the bean

                        It is also possible to access a non-static (instance) field of another bean,

                        Injecting enum values into beans as either property or constructor arguments is very
                        easy to do in Spring, in that you don't actually have to <emphasis>do</emphasis>
                        anything or know anything about the Spring internals (or even about classes such
                        as the <classname>FieldRetrievingFactoryBean</classname>). Let's look at an example
                        to see how easy injecting an enum value is; consider this JDK 5 enum:
                    </para>
                    <programlisting language="java"><![CDATA[package javax.persistence;

public enum PersistenceContextType {

    TRANSACTION,
    EXTENDED

}]]></programlisting>
                    <para>Now consider a setter of type <classname>PersistenceContextType</classname>:</para>
                    <programlisting language="java"><![CDATA[package example;

public class Client {

    private PersistenceContextType persistenceContextType;

    public void setPersistenceContextType(PersistenceContextType type) {
        this.persistenceContextType = type;
    }
}]]></programlisting>
                    <para>.. and the corresponding bean definition:</para>
                    <programlisting language="xml"><![CDATA[<bean class="example.Client">
    <property name="persistenceContextType" value="TRANSACTION" />
</bean>]]></programlisting>
                    <para>
                        This works for classic type-safe emulated enums (on JDK 1.4 and JDK 1.3) as well;
                        Spring will automatically attempt to match the string property value to a constant
                        on the enum class.

                dedicated section, and this is <emphasis>Spring</emphasis> reference documentation,
                not Eclipse XML editor documentation. You will have to read the documentation that

                <para>There is a dedicated Spring Framework plugin for Eclipse called

                considered and non-biased opinion for you!) This plugin makes using Spring even easier, and it has more
                than just support for the core Spring Framework... Spring Web Flow is supported too. Details of how to
                install Spring IDE can be found on the
