# core-beans
|
|
|
|
Companion project for three articles on **[ankurm.com](https://ankurm.com)**.
|
|
|
|
| Article | What it demonstrates |
|
|
|---|---|
|
|
| [Spring Bean Scopes: Singleton, Prototype, Request, Session and the Prototype-in-Singleton Trap](https://ankurm.com/spring-bean-scopes-singleton-prototype-request-session-prototype-in-singleton-trap/) | instance counts for every scope, five ways to get a fresh prototype inside a singleton, a singleton that leaks one caller's data into another's, and request scope without a proxy failing at start-up |
|
|
| [Spring Bean Lifecycle in Boot 4: @PostConstruct, InitializingBean, SmartLifecycle and Shutdown Order](https://ankurm.com/spring-bean-lifecycle-postconstruct-smartlifecycle-shutdown-order/) | every callback in order from a real run, `@PostConstruct` running before the proxy exists, the non-static `BeanPostProcessor` warning, `SmartLifecycle` phases measured, and a request in flight during graceful shutdown with virtual threads |
|
|
| [Circular Dependencies in Spring Boot 4: Why Startup Fails and 4 Ways to Fix It](https://ankurm.com/spring-boot-4-circular-dependencies-startup-fails-4-fixes/) | the start-up failure report for a three-service ring, the creation order behind it, what `allow-circular-references` does and does not repair (a half-built bean, `@Async` versus `@Cacheable`, an INFO line that swallows an exception), and four fixes run side by side: redesign, events, `@Lazy`, `ObjectProvider` |
|
|
|
|
Every console block, exception message and count quoted in those articles came out of `output/`,
|
|
and every file there is regenerated by one script. Most are written by the test suite, so if a
|
|
claim stops being true the build goes red.
|
|
|
|
There is deliberately **no `docs/` folder**: the deeper material lives in collapsible "going
|
|
deeper" sections inside the articles themselves, next to the paragraph each one extends.
|
|
|
|
## Versions
|
|
|
|
| | |
|
|
|---|---|
|
|
| Spring Boot | 4.1.1 |
|
|
| Spring Framework | 7.0.9 |
|
|
| JDK | 25 (Temurin 25.0.4.1+1) |
|
|
| Maven | 3.9 |
|
|
|
|
## Quickstart
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
export JAVA_HOME=/path/to/jdk-25
|
|
mvn test # runs the scenarios and rewrites the test-written files in output/
|
|
./scripts/run-all.sh # everything, including the script-captured files
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Source layout
|
|
|
|
| Package | What it holds |
|
|
|---|---|
|
|
| `scopes/` | singleton, `@Lazy`, prototype, scoped-prototype and the five ways a singleton can obtain a prototype; the shared-state greeter |
|
|
| `web/` | `@RequestScope`, `@SessionScope`, `@ApplicationScope` beans and a diagnostic `/scopes` controller, plus the un-proxied request bean that fails at start-up |
|
|
| `lifecycle/` | `KitchenSink` (every callback), the post-processor traps, `PhasedWorker` and `NeverStops` for `SmartLifecycle` |
|
|
| `shutdown/` | a web application with a `/slow` endpoint and two `SmartLifecycle` beans at different phases |
|
|
| `cycles/` | one package per scenario: `broken/` (the three-service ring), `allowed/` (field cycles with the flag on), `redesign/`, `events/`, `lazy/` and `provider/` (the four fixes), `beanmethods/` (a cycle written as `@Bean` methods) |
|
|
|
|
## Endpoints
|
|
|
|
Both endpoints exist only to be called by the tests. They have no authorisation. Delete them before shipping.
|
|
|
|
| Endpoint | Application | Purpose |
|
|
|---|---|---|
|
|
| `GET /scopes` | `WebScopesApp` | request, session and application instance serials, and the injected proxy class |
|
|
| `GET /slow?ms=1500` | `ShutdownApp` | sleeps, so a request can be in flight when the context closes |
|
|
|
|
## Captured output
|
|
|
|
Files 01-17 and 19-35 (tests) and 18 (`capture-metadata.sh`). Timing rows assert coarse thresholds, not exact milliseconds; treat them as indicative.
