Interface Summary

Modifier and Type	Interface and Description
public interface	AnnotatedBeanDefinition Extended `org.springframework.beans.factory.config.BeanDefinition` interface that exposes `org.springframework.core.type.AnnotationMetadata` about its bean class - without requiring the class to be loaded yet.

Annotation Summary

Modifier and Type	Annotation and Description
public @interface	Autowired Marks a constructor, field, setter method, or config method as to be autowired by Spring's dependency injection facilities.
public @interface	Configurable Marks a class as being eligible for Spring-driven configuration.
public @interface	Lookup An annotation that indicates 'lookup' methods, to be overridden by the container to redirect them back to the `org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanFactory` for a `getBean` call.
public @interface	Qualifier This annotation may be used on a field or parameter as a qualifier for candidate beans when autowiring.
public @interface	Value Annotation used at the field or method/constructor parameter level that indicates a default value expression for the annotated element.

Class Summary

Modifier and Type	Class and Description
public class	AnnotatedGenericBeanDefinition Extension of the `org.springframework.beans.factory.support.GenericBeanDefinition` class, adding support for annotation metadata exposed through the `AnnotatedBeanDefinition` interface.
public class	AnnotationBeanWiringInfoResolver `org.springframework.beans.factory.wiring.BeanWiringInfoResolver` that uses the Configurable annotation to identify which classes need autowiring.
public class	AutowiredAnnotationBeanPostProcessor `BeanPostProcessor` implementation that autowires annotated fields, setter methods, and arbitrary config methods.
public abstract class	BeanFactoryAnnotationUtils Convenience methods performing bean lookups related to Spring-specific annotations, for example Spring's `@Qualifier` annotation.
public class	CustomAutowireConfigurer A `org.springframework.beans.factory.config.BeanFactoryPostProcessor` implementation that allows for convenient registration of custom autowire qualifier types.
public class	InitDestroyAnnotationBeanPostProcessor `org.springframework.beans.factory.config.BeanPostProcessor` implementation that invokes annotated init and destroy methods.
public class	InjectionMetadata Internal class for managing injection metadata.
pack-priv class	JakartaAnnotationsRuntimeHints `RuntimeHintsRegistrar` for Jakarta annotations.
public class	ParameterResolutionDelegate Public delegate for resolving autowirable parameters on externally managed constructors and methods.
public class	QualifierAnnotationAutowireCandidateResolver `AutowireCandidateResolver` implementation that matches bean definition qualifiers against `qualifier annotations` on the field or parameter to be autowired.

Enum Summary

Modifier and Type	Enum and Description
public enum	Autowire Enumeration determining autowiring status: that is, whether a bean should have its dependencies automatically injected by the Spring container using setter injection.
