I want only certain beans to be injected into other beans using autowiring by type.
With the "autowire" attribute, you can control whether or not a bean's properties are autowired, but I would rather turn on auto-wire globally but limit which beans can be automatically injected. Will this be possible in Spring 2.0? (And if I'm missing something, is it already possible in 1.0?)
Use the default-autowire="byType" for the beans element and autowire="no" for individual bean elements you don't want to autowire.
I think you misread my post.Quote:

You are right, sorry. I think what you need is autowire-candidate="false", available in Spring 2.
Thanks. That sounds exactly what I was looking for.Quote:

To answer my own question: No, there isn't such a default. (At least not in the rc2 DTD).
