Autowiring by name not working in 3.2.0? #38536
Description
Hello team,
We've tried upgrading to version 3.2.0 of Spring Boot and we came across what we think might be a bug.
With this new version, Autowiring by name doesn't seen to be working, and it's forcing us to include a @qualifier(name) tag whenever we have multiple beans of the same type. Is this behaviour intended and we missed it from the docs?
Example:
We have multiple Queue and TopicExchange defined with different names, like
@Bean
Queue activityQueue(@Value("${amqp.activity.queue}") String queueName) {
return new Queue(queueName);
}
And we used to inject it with:
@Bean
Binding rabbitActivityBinding(Queue activityQueue, TopicExchange activityExchange) {
return BindingBuilder.bind(activityQueue)
.to(activityExchange).with(ACTIVITY_POSTED_ROUTING_KEY);
}
This used to find the right beans and inject them properly, but now it's complaining that it finds 9 instances and forces us to add a @Qualifier. This looks like a major change to Spring behaviour
A similar example happened with @PathVariable:
@GetMapping(path = "/{id}", produces = MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON_VALUE)
@ResponseStatus(HttpStatus.OK)
public GetPaymentResponse getPayment(@PathVariable String id)
Is now forcing us to include @PathVariable("id")
