Create prototype scoped Spring bean with annotations?

You can use the @Scope(value = ConfigurableBeanFactory.SCOPE_PROTOTYPE) annotation.

@Service
@Scope(ConfigurableBeanFactory.SCOPE_PROTOTYPE)
public class CustomerService {
    // ...
}

1. Spring API Docs.
2. Example of the mapping.
3. Scope annotation reference.

As of the current spring version 4.3.2, we can use @Scope("prototype") annotation.

@Scope("prototype")
@Repository
public class MovieFinderImpl implements MovieFinder {
    // ...
}
