内嵌的web容器的配置
在ServletWebServerFactoryConfiguration中，存在几个内部类，这些内部类只有满足ConditionalOnClass的条件，才会生效，比如EmbeddedTomcat，只有pom文件中有Tomcat的依赖，EmbeddedTomcat才会生效。但是如果pom中有超过一个的web容器的配置，那么也会报错。
上面getWebServerFactory中获取bean的name，web容器的bean名称就出自这里。

@Configuration
class ServletWebServerFactoryConfiguration {

    @Configuration
    @ConditionalOnClass({ Servlet.class, Tomcat.class, UpgradeProtocol.class })
    @ConditionalOnMissingBean(value = ServletWebServerFactory.class,
            search = SearchStrategy.CURRENT)
    public static class EmbeddedTomcat {

        @Bean
        public TomcatServletWebServerFactory tomcatServletWebServerFactory() {
            return new TomcatServletWebServerFactory();
        }

    }

    /**

    @Configuration

    }
