Say I have a class like this:
```@RestController
class Foo(val bar: Bar, val baz: Baz = Baz("ding"))```
`bar` and `baz` will be autowired automatically as expected.  But is it possible to disable autowiring for `baz` since it has a default value?

Just out of interest, what is the usecase? In case spring does not have a Baz bean, use this default one instead? (within spring  that would be solved with conditional bean loading)

and if you want it to be a property of the class but not being set by the constructor you can just create a separate property <https://kotlinlang.org/docs/properties.html>

it's convenient to have all dependencies in the constructor when testing Foo

And Baz is maybe not available for autowiring now, but someone might add it later, thus braking Foo (or introducing interesting side effects).  This exact thing happened in a project here earlier.

So it is a non-bean dependency, and you want to change it during testing? (if that is the case I think I would consider making it a bean)

Or you can give it as an argument to functions who actually need to use Baz

Yup. I was trying to avoid making it a bean, but it seems to be the only viable option.  I was hoping for a `@DontAutowire` annotation or something :slightly_smiling_face:

Sounds like you might be able to achieve this with a testing only constructor and di constructor

Ie the di constructor delegates to the testing constructor and passes in the default arg
