Hi,

DefaultListableBeanFactory#getBeansOfType catches and swallows BeanCreationException. The method documentation and name creates the assumption, that getBeansOfType has the same behiour like

for (String beanName : listableBeanFactory.getBeanNamesForType(type)) {
  Object bean = listableBeanFactory.getBean(beanName);
}

But the result is totally differnt. This behaviour is not well documented and unexpected to the client.

Best greetings,
Ben
