Q:

What is the default autowiring in spring?

Looking at my web application, it looks like the default autowiring is by name.  I did not use the autowire keyword in any XML files, but it's still autowiring.  Based on this link, it looks like no autowiring should happen in this case. 
Why is this happening?  Can we set it at a global level somewhere in the project?
