javabeans - spring destroy bean manually instead of ctx.close() -

is possible tell container of spring destroy specific bean (prototype) in order save memory?

i dont want user ctx.close() in order see bean destroyed, rather on runtime.

if understand correctly want remove bean defined in ctx @ runtime, use beandefinitionregistry done, beandefinitionregistry has method of removebean() takes bean name parameter.

beandefinitionregistry factory =     (beandefinitionregistry) applicationctx.getautowirecapablebeanfactory(); 

then

((defaultlistablebeanfactory) beanfactory).destroysingleton("mybean");
