Create Spring ApplicationContext from in memory XML

Question

Is there a way to create an ApplicationContext (or whatever else in Spring you can use to do getBean("beanName") ) by passing in an XML file that is in memory? The only methods I've been able to find involve providing a file or directory.

You could give it a try:

import org.springframework.context.support.GenericXmlApplicationContext;

String xmlDef = "...";
ApplicationContext ctx = new GenericXmlApplicationContext(new InputStreamResource(new ByteArrayInputStream(xmlDef.getBytes("UTF-8"))))
