I have a bean (com.test.map) as below which is being used at many places, I want to include a new entry to the list but I should not modify anything to below bean.
<bean name="com.test.map" class="java.util.LinkedHashMap">
<constructor-arg index="0">
<map>
<entry key="1" value="One" />
<entry key="2" value="Two" />
</map>
</constructor-arg>
<bean>
I want to extend the above bean by appending a new entry parameter which can be used at other place. Any help is appreciated to validate if new bean is valid in extending?
<bean name="com.test.extendmap" parent="com.test.map">
<constructor-arg>
<map>
<entry key="3" value="Three" />
</map>
</constructor-arg>
<bean>
