public class FileSystemXmlApplicationContext

extends AbstractXmlApplicationContext

Standalone XML application context, taking the context definition files from the file system or from URLs. Mainly useful for test harnesses, but also for standalone environments.

Note: In case of multiple config locations, later bean definitions will override ones defined in earlier loaded files. This can be leveraged to deliberately override certain bean definitions via an extra XML file.
