	Spring XML Beans Schema, version 4.3
	Authors: Juergen Hoeller, Rob Harrop, Mark Fisher, Chris Beams

	This defines a simple and consistent way of creating a namespace
	of JavaBeans objects, managed by a Spring BeanFactory, read by
	XmlBeanDefinitionReader (with DefaultBeanDefinitionDocumentReader).

	This document type is used by most Spring functionality, including
	web application contexts, which are based on bean factories.

	Each "bean" element in this document defines a JavaBean.
	Typically the bean class is specified, along with JavaBean properties
	and/or constructor arguments.

	A bean instance can be a "singleton" (shared instance) or a "prototype"
	(independent instance). Further scopes can be provided by extended
	bean factories, for example in a web environment.

	References among beans are supported, that is, setting a JavaBean property
	or a constructor argument to refer to another bean in the same factory
	(or an ancestor factory).

	As alternative to bean references, "inner bean definitions" can be used.
	Such inner beans do not have an independent lifecycle; they are typically
	anonymous nested objects that share the scope of their containing bean.

	There is also support for lists, sets, maps, and java.util.Properties
	as bean property types or constructor argument types.

	Controls whether bean properties are "autowired".
	This is an automagical process in which bean references don't need
	to be coded explicitly in the XML bean definition file, but rather the
	Spring container works out dependencies. The effective default is "no".

	There are 4 modes:

	1. "no"
	The traditional Spring default. No automagical wiring. Bean references
	must be defined in the XML file via the <ref/> element (or "ref"
	attribute). We recommend this in most cases as it makes documentation
	more explicit.

	Note that this default mode also allows for annotation-driven autowiring,
	if activated. "no" refers to externally driven autowiring only, not
	affecting any autowiring demands that the bean class itself expresses.

	2. "byName"
	Autowiring by property name. If a bean of class Cat exposes a "dog"
	property, Spring will try to set this to the value of the bean "dog"
	in the current container. If there is no matching bean by name, nothing
	special happens.

	3. "byType"
	Autowiring if there is exactly one bean of the property type in the
	container. If there is more than one, a fatal error is raised, and
	you cannot use byType autowiring for that bean. If there is none,
	nothing special happens.

	4. "constructor"
	Analogous to "byType" for constructor arguments. If there is not exactly
	one bean of the constructor argument type in the bean factory, a fatal
	error is raised.

	Note that explicit dependencies, i.e. "property" and "constructor-arg"
	elements, always override autowiring.

	Note: This attribute will not be inherited by child bean definitions.
	Hence, it needs to be specified per concrete bean definition. It can be
	shared through the 'default-autowire' attribute at the 'beans' level
	and potentially inherited from outer 'beans' defaults in case of nested
