Update `ApplicationContextAotGenerator` so that it can generate class
names based on a `target` class and using the ID of the application
context. Prior to this commit, the generated class name was always
`__.BeanFactoryRegistrations`.
Closes gh-28565
This commit adds a central utility to figure out if the application
must run with Ahead-Of-Time optimizations. This is mandatory for running
in a native image but can be selected on the JVM using the
"spring.aot.enabled" property.
This commit also introduces a utility that can be used to initialize a
context with generated artifacts. This represents the runtime
counterpart of ApplicationContextAotGenerator.
Closes gh-28474
Prior to this commit, the hints conditions were only supported for the
`TypeHint` case. GraalVM generally expanded this concept to all hints
and we should do the same.
Right now, only the `typeReachable` condition is available but we should
design for possible future additions.
This commit introduces a new `ConditionalHint` contract implemented by
all hints compatible with this approach. The condition information is
also used in all configuration writers as a result.
Closes gh-28126
This commit adds a `@Reflective` annotation that can be used to declare
that the annotated element requires reflection at runtime. By default,
the annotated element is exposed but this can be customized by
specifying a dedicated `ReflectiveProcessor`.
Closes gh-28469
A static nested class does not keep an implicit reference to its
enclosing instance.
This prevents a common cause of memory leaks and uses less memory per
instance of the class.
Closes gh-28433
Prior to this commit, we could only contribute `RuntimeHints` through
two mechanisms:
* `AotContributingBeanFactoryPostProcessor`, consdering the entire
`BeanFactory` and designed for contributing both code and hints.
* `AotContributingBeanPostProcessor`, consdering beans one by one, but
also designed for contributing both code and hints.
There are cases where libraries and applications want to contribute
`RuntimeHints` only, in a more static fashion: a dependency being
present, or a piece of infrastructure being considered by the
application context are good enough signals to contribute hints about
resources or reflection.
This commit adds the `RuntimeHintsRegistrar` contract for these cases.
Implementations can be declared as `spring.factories` and they will be
processed as soon as they're detected on the classpath. They can also be
declared with `@ImportRuntimeHints` and they will be processed if the
annotated bean definition is considered in the application context.
This annotation should be mainly used on configuration classes and on
bean methods.
```
@Configuration
@ImportRuntimeHints(CustomRuntimeHintsRegistrar.class)
public class MyConfiguration {
@Bean
@ImportRuntimeHints(OtherRuntimeHintsRegistrar.class)
public MyBean myBean() {
//...
}
}
```
Closes gh-28160
