Re: [Springframework-developer] verbosity of XML property declaration

[Marc L. <ma...@lo...>]

Hi,

wasnt aware of that new feature of RC1, thats nice. Its the halfway of 
my proposal ;-) Of course you are right by saying that auto-wiring will 
help me here but call me conservative, i am not a big fan of it because 
of possible sideeffects and i want to have documented on bean basis what 
will be injected and what not.

But the "ref" attribute in RC1 is a fair tradeoff between 
readability/flexibility and verbosity. I will go this route.

thx for pointing out and boy, its hard to follow all that new features, 
which is good of course <g>.
