Sample:

<bean id="snaptheWorld" class="mypackage.SnapshotTheWorld">

<constructor-arg>

   <list>

    <ref bean="myBean" />

    <ref bean="myOtherBean" />

  </list>

</constructor-arg>

</bean>

  <constructor-arg>

    <bean factory-method="getPlatformMBeanServer" class="java.lang.management.ManagementFactory" />

  </constructor-arg>

</bean>
