copied!<p>I found the following to be of use:</p> <ol> <li>split your Spring configurations into multiple standalone configurations, and use Spring's import facility to import configuration dependencies (see <a href="http://static.springframework.org/spring/docs/2.0.8/reference/beans.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">here</a>, section 3.2.2.1). That way you have a set of configurations that you can combine or disassemble as required, and they are all self-dependent (all the dependencies will be explicit and referenced)</li> <li>Use an IDE that is Spring-aware, and allows you to navigate through the configurations via point-n-click on beans (references/names, to-and-from source code). <a href="http://www.jetbrains.com/idea/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Intellij</a> works very well at this (version 7 and beyond, I think). I suspect Eclipse would do something similar.</li> <li>Revise <em>what</em> you're injecting <em>where</em>. You may want to refactor multiple bean injections into one composite or 'meta' bean, or a larger component. Or you may find that components you once thought you'd need to inject have never changed, or never demanded that injectability (for testing, implementing as strategies etc.)</li> </ol> <p>I used to work with a huge Spring installation, with hundreds (thousands?) of beans. Splitting the configurations up made life a lot more manageable, and simplified testing/creating standalone processes etc. But I think the Intellij Spring integration that came with Intellij made the most difference. Having a Spring-aware IDE is a major timesaver.</p>
