Class Overview
Holder for a BeanDefinition with name and aliases. Can be registered as a placeholder for an inner bean.
Can also be used for programmatic registration of inner bean definitions. If you don't care about BeanNameAware and the like, registering RootBeanDefinition or ChildBeanDefinition is good enough.
