Spring filter as Java annotation based bean

I have a Spring filter in the XML format provided below, 

    <filter>
    <filter-name>SpringOpenEntityManagerInViewFilter</filter-name>
    <filter-class>org.springframework.orm.jpa.support.OpenEntityManagerInViewFilter</filter-class>
</filter>

<filter-mapping>
    <filter-name>SpringOpenEntityManagerInViewFilter</filter-name>
    <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
</filter-mapping>

I load it as an XML file in the top of the class. Will it be possible to write Java instead of the XML definition?

In case of Spring you should define a class that extends AbstractDispatcherServletInitializer and add following lines to it

@Override
protected Filter[] getServletFilters() {
    return new Filter[] {
        new OpenEntityManagerInViewFilter();
    };
}

You can get more information about filters in Java code from Spring Docs https://docs.spring.io/spring/docs/4.1.1.RELEASE/spring-framework-reference/html/mvc.html#mvc-container-config
