I'm looking for 2 things: How to disable all caching during development with Spring boot "dev" profile. There doesn't seam to be a general setting to turn it all off in application.properties. What's the easiest way? How to disable caching for a specific method? I tried to use SpEl like this: @Cacheable(value = "complex-calc", condition = "#{${spring.profiles.active} != 'dev'}") public String someBigCalculation(String input){ ... } But I can get it to work. There are a couple of questions on SO related to this, but they refer to XML config or other things, but I'm using Spring Boot 1.3.3 and

If I have: @Autowired private ApplicationContext ctx; I can get beans and resources by using one of the the getBean methods. However, I can't figure out how to get property values. Obviously, I can create a new bean which has an @Value property like: private @Value("${someProp}") String somePropValue; What method do I call on the ApplicationContext object to get that value without autowiring a bean? I usually use the @Value, but there is a situation where the SPeL expression needs to be dynamic, so I can't just use an annotation. In the case where SPeL expression needs to be dynamic, get the

Question: How can I use Spring Expression Language to check that 2 Boolean properties are true? For example, checking that a single property is true would use the syntax: Example @ConditionalOnExpression("${property.from.properties.file}") What would be the syntax for checking property1 == true && property2 == false ? Where the properties can potentially have different values. The answer from a similar question: How to check two condition while using @ConditionalOnProperty or @ConditionalOnExpression concatenates two strings together and performs a check like so: Concatenation Solution

I've defined this method in my Spring MVC Controller : @RequestMapping(value = "{id}/content", method=RequestMethod.POST) @PreAuthorize("principal.user.userAccount instanceof T(com.anonym.model.identity.PedagoAccount) AND principal.user.userAccount.userId == #object.pedago.userId AND #form.id == #object.id") public String modifyContent(@PathVariable("id") Project object, @Valid @ModelAttribute("form") ProjectContentForm form) { .... } Then in my JUnit test I'd like to call this method and ensure that the PreAuthorize condition is verified. But when I set the user principal in my JUnit test

Spring 3 has introduced a new expression language (SpEL) which can be used in bean definitions. The syntax itself is fairly well specified. What isn't clear is how, if at all, SpEL interacts with the property placeholder syntax that was already present in prior versions. Does SpEL have support for property placeholders, or do I have to combine the syntax of both mechanisms and hope they combine? Let me give a concrete example. I want to use the property syntax ${x.y.z} , but with the addition of "default value" syntax as provided by the elvis operator to handle cases where ${x.y.z} is
