In a spring configuration, what is the difference between using name vs id? I’m aware that XML restricts the ‘id’ attribute to be unique in a document and limits the characters for using in the id. But otherwise when declaring a bean, what is the difference between using the ‘name’ attribute vs the ‘id’ attribute?

    Essentially, this is really just a XML matter. But you can also use the name attribute to specify aliases for a bean using characters which would be illegal in an id, I think.
