Includes / Excludes

For the cases where the configuration properties class is inheriting properties from a parent class, it may be desirable to exclude properties from the parent class. The includes and excludes members of the @ConfigurationProperties annotation allow for that functionality. The list applies to both local properties and inherited properties.

The names supplied to the includes/excludes list should be the “property” name. For example if a setter method is injected, the property name is the de-capitalized setter name (setConnectionTimeout → connectionTimeout).
