Spring Framework Master Class - Java Spring the Modern Way - Step 21 - Defining the Spring ApplicationContext Using XML

The video tutorial explains how to create an XML context for managing dependencies without using annotations. It covers the process of setting up an XML JDBC connection and a person DAO, refactoring code for better organization, and defining beans and their dependencies in an XML file. The tutorial also demonstrates how to autowire the XML JDBC connection into the person DAO using XML tags.

What is the primary goal of creating an XML context in this tutorial?

• To simplify the code by using annotations

• To enhance the performance of the application

• To replace JDBC connections with XML JDBC connections

• To use annotations for dependency management

Which of the following steps is NOT involved in modifying the code for XML JDBC connections?

• Removing annotations

• Changing package structure

• Using JDBC annotations

• Renaming classes

What is the purpose of creating an application context XML file?

• To create a user interface for the application

• To write Java code for the application

• To specify namespaces and define beans

• To define the structure of the database

How can you specify the class for a bean in the application context XML?

• By using the 'class' attribute

• By using the 'bean' attribute

• By using the 'namespace' attribute

• By using the 'context' attribute

What tag is used to autowire a JDBC connection into a Person DAO in XML?

• context

• autowire

• property

• bean

Which attribute is used to refer to a bean in the XML configuration?

• ref

• name

• class

• id

What is the final step mentioned in organizing beans in the application context?

• Creating a new XML file

• Formatting the XML for readability

• Adding more beans

• Removing all annotations
