Incorrect reference to abstract bean
Error
New
Last modified: 03 December 2024Reports referenced abstract beans.
Abstract beans can be used only as template bean definitions, that is, parents for child definitions. Trying to use such an abstract parent bean on its own by referring to it as a ref property of another bean, or by calling getBean()
with the parent bean id, will result in an error.
Example:
<bean abstract="true" id="parentBeanWithoutClass"/>
<bean class="com.my.company.FooBean" id="childBean" parent="parentBeanWithoutClass">
<!-- properties -->
</bean>
In this example, the parent bean can't be instantiated on its own since it is incomplete and explicitly marked as abstract.
- By ID
Can be used to locate inspection in e.g. Qodana configuration files, where you can quickly enable or disable it, or adjust its settings.
