Constructor based Set injection: Even though instance of a set is directly passed to the constructor, it's similar to the constructor based injection (XML configuration). Please see proxied using CGLIB concepts how that works.
import org.springframework.context.annotation.AnnotationConfigApplicationContext;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.Bean;
import java.util.Arrays;
import java.util.HashSet;
import java.util.Set;
public class SetInjectionExample {
@Bean
public TestBean testBean () {
return new TestBean(new HashSet(Arrays.asList("one hundred", "two hundred", "three hundred")));
}
public static void main (String[] args) {
AnnotationConfigApplicationContext context =
new AnnotationConfigApplicationContext(SetInjectionExample.class);
TestBean bean = context.getBean(TestBean.class);
System.out.println(bean.getStringSet());
}
private static class TestBean {
private final Set<String> stringSet;
private TestBean (Set<String> stringSet) {
this.stringSet = stringSet;
}
public Set<String> getStringSet () {
return stringSet;
}
}
}
Component scanning and collection injection, based on generic type and qualifier

Component scanning and constructor based injection: The Set of strings is registered as bean itself.
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.*;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Component;
import java.util.Arrays;
import java.util.HashSet;
import java.util.Set;
@Configuration
@ComponentScan(basePackageClasses = SetInjectionScanExample.class, useDefaultFilters = false,
includeFilters = {@ComponentScan.Filter(
type = FilterType.ASSIGNABLE_TYPE,
value = SetInjectionScanExample.class)})
public class SetInjectionScanExample {
@Bean
public Set<String> strSet () {
return new HashSet<>(Arrays.asList("two hundred", "three hundred", "four hundred"));
}
public static void main (String[] args) {
AnnotationConfigApplicationContext context =
new AnnotationConfigApplicationContext(SetInjectionScanExample.class);
TestBean bean = context.getBean(TestBean.class);
System.out.println(bean.getStrSet());
}
@Component
static class TestBean {
private final Set<String> strSet;
//@Autowired Spring 4.3 and later doesn't required the annotation
TestBean (Set<String> strSet) {
this.strSet = strSet;
}
public Set<String> getStrSet () {
return strSet;
}
}
}
Injecting collection, based on matching types and qualifier: This is a setter-based injection and the injection point TestBean#setRefBeanServices (Set<RefBeanService> refBeanServices) will be injected with all implementations of RefBeanService having the same qualifier.
