RE: [Springframework-developer] Import tag for XML bean definitions

[<jue...@we...>]

I can certainly add support for a delimited list of resource locations. =
However, you will not be able to use a PropertyPlaceholderConfigurer for =
those locations: Such BeanFactoryPostProcessors get applied after all =
bean definitions have been registered. And I don't see a chance to =
change this with the current semantics...

juergen .... you are a legend !!!!=20

Hey one thing though ..

Would it be possible to allow the user to specify a list like=20
so  .......=20

 <import resource=3D"myImport1.xml,myImport2.xml,myImport3.xml"/>

The reason that this would be *super* *super* usefull is because then=20
users could store these values in a properties file or in the registry
using the Preferences API and then use the property placeholder=20
configurer to fill in the blanks at runtime.=20

On other thing ..... if you wanted to be super smart and really show off =

heres a cool feature ....=20

<beans>
<if value=3D"test" equals=3D"test">
 <import resource=3D"myImport1.xml"/>
</if>

 <bean ... />


</beans>

While I'm not gonna recommend this feature too much, as I personally =
prefer a "contextConfigLocation" that refers to multiple files, I still =
believe that an import tag is a useful addition. In particular, some =
people are used to such a feature from Ant and XWork...
