Users can (and often do) inject Resource instances using placeholders and pattern matching, but this doesn't work with WritableResource. It might be an oversight?

Can you provide a small snippet of code to demonstrate what you mean?

This would fail to bind to the environment property:
@Component
public class MyWritingStuff {
@Value("${writing.file:file:/tmp/foo.txt}")
private WritableResource writable;
}
whereas this would succeed:
@Component
public class MyReadingStuff {
@Value("${writing.file:file:/tmp/foo.txt}")
private Resource writable;
}

I think I have a fix for this but it changes the default behavior of DefaultResourceLoader. Juergen Hoeller, could you review and let me know how risky you think this is?

Some our projects have started to bump to this issue, too: https://github.com/spring-cloud/spring-cloud-gcp/issues/72
Wouldn't it be great to revise the fix?
Thanks

Bulk closing outdated, unresolved issues. Please, reopen if still relevant.

Please, reopen if still relevant.
This issue is still relevant with SF 6.0.0 snapshots. Can you please take a look? This is actually blocking for https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-batch/issues/756.
Comment From: jhoeller
@benas are you specifically trying to inject an @Value WritableResource which isn't working out of the box? Can you confirm that @Value Resource with a subsequent downcast to WritableResource works (since we attempt to resolve a FileUrlResource there as of 5.0.2)? That would mean that we only have to add a ResourceEditor registration for WritableResource.

Thank you for your feedback, Juergen.

Yes, I used the same sample as in this comment with the latest SF 6.0 snapshots. To give a bit of context, my specific use case is in Batch (issue https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-batch/issues/756) where a change from Resource to WritableResource in AbstractFileItemWriter results in a failure to load this application context (The sample is in XML config, but I guess the configuration style should not matter). The sample fails with:
[main] ERROR org.springframework.batch.core.step.AbstractStep - Encountered an error executing step step1 in job ioSampleJob

Can you confirm that
@Value Resourcewith a subsequent downcast to WritableResource works (since we attempt to resolve a FileUrlResource there as of 5.0.2)?
I'm not sure if this is a regression or not, but the following snippet fails with a ClassCastException with the latest 6.0 snapshots:
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Value;
import org.springframework.context.ApplicationContext;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.AnnotationConfigApplicationContext;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.Configuration;
import org.springframework.core.io.Resource;
import org.springframework.core.io.WritableResource;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Component;
@Configuration
public class WritableResourceConversionSample {
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
ApplicationContext applicationContext = new AnnotationConfigApplicationContext(WritableResourceConversionSample.class);
MyService myService = applicationContext.getBean(MyService.class);
myService.printMessage(); // fails with java.lang.ClassCastException: class org.springframework.core.io.DefaultResourceLoader$ClassPathContextResource cannot be cast to class org.springframework.core.io.WritableResource
}
@Component
public static class MyService {
@Value("${file:/tmp/myWritableFile.txt}")
private Resource resource;// With a WritableResource here, the sample fails at startup with an IllegalStateException: Cannot convert value of type 'java.lang.String' to required type 'org.springframework.core.io.WritableResource': no matching editors or conversion strategy found
public void printMessage() {
System.out.println(((WritableResource) resource).isWritable());
}
}
}
Let me know if you need more details on this. Thank you upfront.
