1. @Bean:
1.1 定义
从定义可以看出，@Bean只能用于注解方法和注解的定义。
@Target({ElementType.METHOD, ElementType.ANNOTATION_TYPE})
@Retention(RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME)
1.2 spring文档中对 @Bean的说明
The @Bean annotation is used to indicate that a method instantiates, configures and initializes a new object to be managed by the Spring IoC container.
For those familiar with Spring’s <beans/> XML configuration the @Bean annotation plays the same role as the <bean/> element.
用@Bean注解的方法：会实例化、配置并初始化一个新的对象，这个对象会由spring IoC 容器管理。
实例：
@Configuration
public class AppConfig { @Bean
public MyService myService() {
return new MyServiceImpl();
} }
相当于在 XML 文件中配置
<beans>
<bean id="myService" class="com.acme.services.MyServiceImpl"/>
</beans>
1.3 生成对象的名字：默认情况下用@Bean注解的方法名作为对象的名字。但是可以用 name属性定义对象的名字，而且还可以使用name为对象起多个名字。
@Configuration
public class AppConfig { @Bean(name = "myFoo")
public Foo foo() {
return new Foo();
} }
@Configuration
public class AppConfig { @Bean(name = { "dataSource", "subsystemA-dataSource", "subsystemB-dataSource" })
public DataSource dataSource() {
// instantiate, configure and return DataSource bean...
} }
1.4 @Bean 一般和 @Component或者@Configuration 一起使用。
@Component和@Configuration不同之处
（1）This method of declaring inter-bean dependencies only works when the @Bean method is declared within a @Configuration class. You cannot declare inter-bean dependencies using plain @Component classes.
在 @Component 注解的类中不能定义 类内依赖的@Bean注解的方法。@Configuration可以。
@Configuration
public class AppConfig { @Bean
public Foo foo() {
return new Foo(bar());
} @Bean
public Bar bar() {
return new Bar();
} }
2. @Configuration:
2.1 定义
从定义看，用于注解类、接口、枚举、注解的定义。
@Target(ElementType.TYPE)
@Retention(RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME)
2.2 spring 文档说明
@Configuration is a class-level annotation indicating that an object is a source of bean definitions. @Configuration classes declare beans via public @Bean annotated methods.
@Configuration用于类，表明这个类是beans定义的源。
