<H2><A name="SCAJavaimplementation.spring-%3Cimplementation.spring%3E"></A><implementation.spring></H2>
<P>The Tuscany Java SCA runtime supports components implemented with Spring Framework by using the <implementation.spring> SCDL extension. </P>
<P>The <A href="http://www.osoa.org/download/attachments/35/SCA_SpringComponentImplementationSpecification-V100.pdf?version=1" class="external-link" rel="nofollow">Spring specification</A> defines how Spring and SCA work with one another. The Spring Component implementation is one of the SCA extensions which is being formalized in the OASIS Open Composite Services Architecture with a published <A href="http://www.oasis-opencsa.org/sca-spring" class="external-link" rel="nofollow">specifications </A> document.</P>
<P><IMG class="emoticon" src="https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/images/icons/emoticons/lightbulb_on.gif" height="16" width="16" align="absmiddle" alt="" border="0"> In <A href="http://static.springframework.org/spring/docs/2.5.5/reference" class="external-link" rel="nofollow">Spring Framework</A> an ApplicationContext is the main interface to the Spring IoC container. It is used to look up objects. It can be viewed as the Java object representation of the application-Context.xml file that contains the bean definitions.</P>
<P>The integration with Spring will be at the SCA Composite level, where a Spring application context provides a complete composite, exposing services and using references via SCA. This means that a Spring application context defines the internal structure of a SCA composite implementation.</P>
<P><IMG class="emoticon" src="https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/images/icons/emoticons/lightbulb_on.gif" height="16" width="16" align="absmiddle" alt="" border="0"> Tuscany uses Spring Framework 2.5.5 (requires Java 1.4+)</P>
<H3><A name="SCAJavaimplementation.spring-HowSpringApplicationContextisusedasSCACompositeImplementation%3F"></A>How Spring Application Context is used as SCA Composite Implementation?</H3>
<UL>
<LI>A Spring Application Context is used as an implementation within an SCA composite component.</LI>
<LI>A component that uses Spring for an implementation can wire SCA services and references without introducing SCA metadata into the Spring configuration.<BR>
The Spring context knows very little about the SCA environment. </LI>
<LI>SCA runtime enforces SCA policies and Spring Application Context is unaware of it.</LI>
<LI>It should be possible to generate an SCA Composite from any Spring context and use that composite within an SCA assembly.<BR>
<EM>This feature is under review by the OASIS Specs Team, yet to be implemented in Tuscany</EM></LI>
</UL>
<H3><A name="SCAJavaimplementation.spring-HowtoUseSpringComponentImplementation%3F"></A>How to Use Spring Component Implementation?</H3>
<P>The Spring component implementation SCDL has the following format:</P>
<DIV class="code panel" style="border-width: 1px;"><DIV class="codeContent panelContent">
<PRE class="code-java">
<implementation.spring location=<SPAN class="code-quote">"targetURI"</SPAN> />
</PRE>
</DIV></DIV>
<P>Where the location attribute of that element specifies the target uri of an archive file or directory or the fully qualified path that contains the Spring application context files. </P>
<P>An example of all the three ways of specifying the target uri in the location attribute is shown below</P>
<P>a) Specifying Fully Qualified Path:</P>
<DIV class="code panel" style="border-width: 1px;"><DIV class="codeContent panelContent">
<PRE class="code-java">
<implementation.spring location=<SPAN class="code-quote">"./spring/application-context.xml"</SPAN> />
</PRE>
</DIV></DIV>
<P>b) Specifying a Directory:</P>
<DIV class="code panel" style="border-width: 1px;"><DIV class="codeContent panelContent">
<PRE class="code-java">
<implementation.spring location=<SPAN class="code-quote">"./spring"</SPAN> />
</PRE>
</DIV></DIV>
<P>Here the target uri specifies the resource as a directory named "spring", where all the spring related files are available.</P>
<P>c) Specifying an Archive file:</P>
<DIV class="code panel" style="border-width: 1px;"><DIV class="codeContent panelContent">
<PRE class="code-java">
<implementation.spring location=<SPAN class="code-quote">"./spring.jar"</SPAN> />
</PRE>
</DIV></DIV>
<P>Here the target uri specifies the resource as an archive file name "spring.jar", where all the spring related files are available.</P>
<P><IMG class="emoticon" src="https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/images/icons/emoticons/lightbulb_on.gif" height="16" width="16" align="absmiddle" alt="" border="0"> In case of b) and c), If the resource identified by the location attribute is an archive file then the file META-INF/MANIFEST.MF is read from the archive. If the location URI identifies a directory, then META-INF/MANIFEST.MF must exist underneath that directory.</P>
<P>If the manifest file contains a header "Spring-Context" of the format: <INS>Spring-Context ::= path ( ';' path )*</INS></P>
<P>Where path is a relative path with respect to the location URI, then the set of paths specified in the header identify the context configuration files. If there is no MANIFEST.MF file or no Spring-Context header within that file, then the default behavior is to build an application context using application-context.xml file in the META-INF/spring directory.</P>
<H3><A name="SCAJavaimplementation.spring-HowSpringApplicationContextisAwareofBeansusedinSCAcomposition%3F"></A>How Spring Application Context is Aware of Beans used in SCA composition?</H3>
<P>Your existing Spring Application context should define the <A href="http://www.springframework.org/schema/sca" class="external-link" rel="nofollow">http://www.springframework.org/schema/sca</A> namespace in order to make the Spring aware of the SCA related beans. This is shown below.</P>

<H4><A name="SCAJavaimplementation.spring-UsingSCABindingsforSpringImplementation"></A>Using SCA Bindings for Spring Implementation</H4>
<P>We know that a component that uses Spring for an implementation can wire SCA services and references without introducing SCA metadata into the Spring configuration. The Spring context knows very little about the SCA environment. Hence the SpringComponent implementation remains the same as shown from some of the examples above but different bindings are chosen at the SCA Composite level as shown below.</P>
<P><IMG class="emoticon" src="https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/images/icons/emoticons/lightbulb_on.gif" height="16" width="16" align="absmiddle" alt="" border="0"> All kind of bindings supported by SCA can be used for Spring Implementation as the bindings are independent of Spring context. Few examples can be seen below.</P>

<H3><A name="SCAJavaimplementation.spring-AccesstheSpringApplicationContextfromeverywhereinyourApplication"></A>Access the Spring-ApplicationContext from everywhere in your Application</H3>
<P>Tuscany creates an custom Application context with an implementation logic for all SCA related beans like <sca:service>, <sca:reference> and <sca:properties> available in the Spring Application Context.</P>
<P>To access the application context in your application we recommend to use the suggested approach in this article.<BR>

<H3><A name="SCAJavaimplementation.spring-NonSupportedFeaturesinTuscany"></A>Non-Supported Features in Tuscany</H3>
<P>Currently Tuscany does not support implicit SCA references and properties for scenario 1 & 2 in spring context as shown below.</P>
<H5><A name="SCAJavaimplementation.spring-Scenario1%3AUsingimplicitSCAReferences%26PropertiesforConstructors"></A>Scenario 1: Using implicit SCA References & Properties for Constructors</H5>

<constructor-arg><ref bean=<SPAN class="code-quote">"mySCAService1"</SPAN>/></constructor-arg>
<constructor-arg><ref bean=<SPAN class="code-quote">"mySCAService2"</SPAN>/></constructor-arg>
</PRE>
</DIV></DIV>
<P>In the above scenario, particularly in cases where the spring bean has defined only one constructor, implicit references / properties can be supported when the contructor-arg element specifies the type of the SCA reference/property that its trying to consume by specifying a type attribute in the contructor-arg OR when the appropriate index attribute is specified in the constructor-arg element.</P>
<P>In cases where the spring bean has defined multiple contructors, its mandatory that all the SCA references / properties used by the constructors should be defined explicitly. And when the constructor-arg uses SCA reference/property within collections, those should be defined explicitly.</P>

<P>Using implicit SCA references and properties within collection as shown in the below code sample will not be supported by Tuscany. Instead we recommed to use explicit SCA references/properties in such cases.</P>
