/** | |
* Interface representing object that can locate a spring context. The implementation should take up | |
* little room when serialized. | |
* | |
* SpringObjectLocator uses this interface to locate the spring context so that it in turn can | |
* locate a bean. | |
* | |
* Ideal implementations use a static lookup to locate the context. | |
* | |
* For Example: | |
* | |
* <pre> | |
* class SpringContextLocator implements ISpringContextLocator | |
* { | |
* public ApplicationContext getSpringContext() | |
* { | |
* //MyApplication is the subclass of WebApplication used by the application | |
* return ((MyApplication)Application.get()).getContext(); | |
* } | |
* } | |
* </pre> | |
* | |
* @see SpringBeanLocator | |
