DefaultListableBeanFactory performs a fallback check for autowire candidates now, which GenericTypeAwareAutowireCandidateResolver implements to accept raw type matches if the target class has unresolvable type variables. Full generic matches are still preferred; the BeanFactory will only start looking for fallback matches if the first pass led to an empty result.

Support repeatable @PropertySource annotations in Java 8 and add
@PropertySources container annotation for Java 6/7. Also add an
ignoreResourceNotFound attribute to @PropertySource allowing missing
property resources to be silently ignored.
This commit also introduces some generally useful methods to
AnnotationUtils for working with @Repeatable annotations.

The key contract is MvcUrls. An instance is automatically created with
the Spring MVC namespace and the MVC Java config but can also be easily
created in any configuration.
Some example tests can be found in DefaultMvcUrlsTests.
Issue: SPR-10665, SPR-8826
MvcUriComponentsBuilder allows creating URIs that point to Spring MVC
controller methods annotated with @RequestMapping. It builds them by
exposing a mock method invocation API similar to Mockito, records the
method invocations and thus builds up the URI by inspecting the mapping
annotations and the parameters handed into the method invocations.
Introduced a new SPI UriComponentsContributor that should be implemented
by HandlerMethodArgumentResolvers that actually contribute path segments
or query parameters to a URI. While the newly introduced
MvcUriComponentsBuilder looks up those UriComponentsContributor instances
from the MVC configuration.
The MvcUriComponentsBuilderFactory (name to be discussed - MvcUris maybe?)
prevents the multiple lookups by keeping the UriComponentsBuilder
instances in an instance variable. So an instance of the factory could
be exposed as Spring bean or through a HandlerMethodArgumentResolver to
be injected into Controller methods.

Refactor TypeDescriptor to use ResolvableType in order to retain full
generic type information, in the process fixing MultiValueMap support
in MapToMapConverter.
Issue: SPR-9499
- Support for serialization
- Allow programmatic creation of an array from a given component type
- Allow programmatic creation with given generics
- Extract generics from Class types using Class.getTypeParameters()
- Move TypeVariableResolver to an inner class (and make method private)
- Refine 'resolve()' algorithm
Issue: SPR-10973
Includes revisions of MethodParameter and DependencyDescriptor (in particular towards a reference to the containing class). Also refines several ResolvableType method signatures.
Issue: SPR-9965
We're consistently resolving class names now, and the entire algorithm moved from GenericTypeResolver to the internal AutowireUtils helper in the bean factory package.
Issue: SPR-10411
Refactor AbstractMessageConverterMethodArgumentResolver and
BridgeMethodResolver to use ResolvableType in preference to deprecated
GenericTypeResolver calls.
Issue: SPR-10980
Add a new ResolvableType Class which encapsulates java.lang.reflect.Type,
providing access to supertypes, interfaces and generic parameters along
with the ability to ultimately resolve to a java.lang.Class.
ResolvableTypes may be obtained from fields, method parameters, method
returns, classes or directly from a java.lang.reflect.Type. Most methods
will themselves return ResolvableTypes, allowing easy navigation.
For example:
private HashMap<Integer, List<String>> myMap;
public void example() {
ResolvableType t = ResolvableType.forField(
getClass().getDeclaredField("myMap"));
t.getSuperType(); // AbstractMap<Integer, List<String>>;
t.asMap(); // Map<Integer, List<String>>
t.getGeneric(0).resolve(); // Integer
t.getGeneric(1).resolve(); // List
t.getGeneric(1); // List<String>
t.resolveGeneric(1, 0); // String
}

Added extension to Future with capabilities for registering callbacks
when the future is complete.
- Added ListenableFuture, ListenableFutureCallback,
ListenableFutureCallbackRegistry, and ListenableFutureTask.
- Using ListenableFuture in AsyncRestOperations/AsyncRestTemplate.
- Added AsyncListenableTaskExecutor, implemented in
SimpleAsyncTaskExecutor.
- Added FutureAdapter and ListenableFutureAdapter.
Update AntPathMatcher Comparator to treat `/**` in the same way as
`null` paths.
Prior to this commit the pattern `/**` would be picked in preference
to patterns with 3 or more PathVariable (e.g. `/matches/{matchId}/
periods/{periodId}/teams/{teamId}/results`).
Issue: SPR-10550
Refine AntPathMatcher.combine rules to allow direct concatenation of
patterns when pattern1 does not contain '*.'. Prior to this commit
direct concatenation was allowed when pattern1 did not contain '.',
this prevented calls of the form:
pathMatcher.combine("/1.0", "/foo/test")
from working as expected.
This commit also applies some general cleanup to the `combine` method.
Issue: SPR-10554
MimeType is available in core-spring and does not include support
for quality parameters and media used in HTTP content negotiation.
The MediaType sub-class in org.springframework.http adds q-parameters.
Previously building with JDK > 1.8 b88 caused test failures due to errors
with custom compilers like Jibx and Jasper reports.
This commit adds a new TestGroup named CUSTOM_COMPILATION that allows the
CI server to continue to run these tests but allow committers to ignore
these tests.
Add ByteBufferConverter that is registered by default with the
DefaultConversionService. Allows conversion from/to a ByteBuffer and
byte[] or to any type that can be converted via a byte[].
Issue: SPR-10712
Prior to this commit the Spring Framework did not provide a public means
for scanning for available server ports. However, the Spring Framework
internally used a FreePortScanner in integration tests within its own
test suite. Furthermore, Spring Integration 2.2 provides similar support
in a SocketUtils class in the spring-integration-test module.
This commit introduces SocketUtils in spring-core to replace the
FreePortScanner which was previously only used internally within
Spring's test suite. This new implementation is inspired by both Spring
Framework's FreePortScanner and Spring Integration's SocketUtils and
consequently attempts to merge the best of both previous
implementations.
Issue: SPR-8032
Develop new org.springframework.core.io.Resource implementation
backed by java.nio.file.Path. Primarily developed to allow custom
file system implementations to be used with Spring.
Since the minimum requirement for Spring is still Java 6 the
existing FileSystemResource can't be retrofitted (and no #getPath
method can be added to the Resource interface).
Unlike FileSystemResource, PathResource delegates to the underlying
file system instead of StringUtils. It has therefore slightly
different semantics. First, when building relative resources via
createRelative the relative path will apply to this path (like URL or
Unix). Second, equality is delegated to the underlying file system
provider so it's case-insensitive on Windows.
Issue: SPR-10608
JOpt 4.4 has enumerable options, so this change can be made
if we upgrade. The only awkward thing is that JOpt allows
aliases for options, so we have to pick one to avoid double
counting. This implementation picks the last one in the list
which is the alphebtically last of the long options, if there
are any (e.g. "o1", "option1" returns "option1"). Most of the
time there will only be one or two aliases for each option so
it won't matter.
Issue: SPR-10579
Update AnnotationMetadata and MethodMetadata to extend from a new
AnnotatedTypeMetadata base interface containing the methods that are
common to both. Also introduce new getAllAnnotationAttributes methods
providing MultiValueMap access to both annotation and meta-annotation
attributes.
Existing classreading and standard implementations have been
refactored to support the new interface.
Add temporary Assume.canLoadNativeDirFonts() method allowing failing
jasper report tests to be bypassed on OSX.
This should be revisited when JDK 8 is released.
Issue: SPR-10537
Prior to this commit the Spring TestContext Framework supported creating
only flat, non-hierarchical contexts. There was no easy way to create
contexts with parent-child relationships.
This commit addresses this issue by introducing a new @ContextHierarchy
annotation that can be used in conjunction with @ContextConfiguration
for declaring hierarchies of application contexts, either within a
single test class or within a test class hierarchy. In addition,
@DirtiesContext now supports a new 'hierarchyMode' attribute for
controlling context cache clearing for context hierarchies.
- Introduced a new @ContextHierarchy annotation.
- Introduced 'name' attribute in @ContextConfiguration.
- Introduced 'name' property in ContextConfigurationAttributes.
- TestContext is now aware of @ContextHierarchy in addition to
@ContextConfiguration.
- Introduced findAnnotationDeclaringClassForTypes() in AnnotationUtils.
- Introduced resolveContextHierarchyAttributes() in ContextLoaderUtils.
- Introduced buildContextHierarchyMap() in ContextLoaderUtils.
- @ContextConfiguration and @ContextHierarchy may not be used as
top-level, class-level annotations simultaneously.
- Introduced reference to the parent configuration in
MergedContextConfiguration and WebMergedContextConfiguration.
- Introduced overloaded buildMergedContextConfiguration() methods in
ContextLoaderUtils in order to handle context hierarchies separately
from conventional, non-hierarchical contexts.
- Introduced hashCode() and equals() in ContextConfigurationAttributes.
- ContextLoaderUtils ensures uniqueness of @ContextConfiguration
elements within a single @ContextHierarchy declaration.
- Introduced CacheAwareContextLoaderDelegate that can be used for
loading contexts with transparent support for interacting with the
context cache -- for example, for retrieving the parent application
context in a context hierarchy.
- TestContext now delegates to CacheAwareContextLoaderDelegate for
loading contexts.
- Introduced getParentApplicationContext() in MergedContextConfiguration
- The loadContext(MergedContextConfiguration) methods in
AbstractGenericContextLoader and AbstractGenericWebContextLoader now
set the parent context as appropriate.
- Introduced 'hierarchyMode' attribute in @DirtiesContext with a
corresponding HierarchyMode enum that defines EXHAUSTIVE and
CURRENT_LEVEL cache removal modes.
- ContextCache now internally tracks the relationships between contexts
that make up a context hierarchy. Furthermore, when a context is
removed, if it is part of a context hierarchy all corresponding
contexts will be removed from the cache according to the supplied
HierarchyMode.
- AbstractGenericWebContextLoader will set a loaded context as the
ROOT_WEB_APPLICATION_CONTEXT_ATTRIBUTE in the MockServletContext when
context hierarchies are used if the context has no parent or if the
context has a parent that is not a WAC.
- Where appropriate, updated Javadoc to refer to the
ServletTestExecutionListener, which was introduced in 3.2.0.
- Updated Javadoc to avoid and/or suppress warnings in spring-test.
- Suppressed remaining warnings in code in spring-test.
Issue: SPR-5613, SPR-9863
Before this fix AntPathMatcher had a special rule for combining
patterns with wildcards and extensions as follows:
"/*.*" + "/*.html" => "/*.html"
This change ensures this rule never applies if the first pattern
contains URI variables.
Issue: SPR-10062
This commit introduces TestGroup#JMXMP and adds assumptions to related
tests accordingly. These tests require the jmxoptional_remote jar on the
classpath, and are run nightly in the SPR-PERF build.
Issue: SPR-8089
Update StringToEnumConverterFactory to search superclasses until
Class.isEnum() returns true. This allows conversion when the
enum class is obtained from the enum value:
public static enum SubFoo {
BAR { String s() { return "x"; } };
abstract String s();
}
conversionService.convert("BAR", SubFoo.BAR.getClass())
This fix is particularly important when converting collections of
enums.
