Before this change the presence of path params (e.g. "/foo;q=1/bar")
expected the request mapping to contain a URI variable in the place of
semicolon content (e.g. either "/{foo}/bar" or "/{foo};{fooParams}").
The change ensures path params are ignored in @RequestMapping patterns
so that "/foo/bar" matches to "/foo;q=1/bar" as well as
"/foo;q=1;p=2/bar".
Along with this change, the RequestMappingHandlerMapping no longer
defaults to having semicolon content removed from the URL, which means
@MatrixVariable is supported by default without the need for any
further configuration.

Add setOutputStreaming on SimpleClientHttpRequestFactory to allow the
disabling of 'output streaming' mode on the underlying connection so
that authentication and redirection can be handled automatically.
Issue: SPR-9617
Prior to this commit several HTTP classes made use of FileCopyUtils
when reading from or writing to streams. This has the unfortunate
side effect of closing streams that should really be left open.
The problem is particularly noticeable when dealing with a
FormHttpMessageConverter that is writing a multi-part response.
Relevant HTTP classes have now been refactored to make use of a new
StreamUtils class that works in a similar way FileCopyUtils but does
not close streams.
The NonClosingOutputStream class from SimpleStreamingClientHttpRequest
has also been refactored to a StreamUtils method.

Update HierarchicalUriComponents.toUri() to only prepend a missing '/'
when the scheme, user info, host or port are specified. This makes
the toUri() method behave in the same way as .toUriString() and allows
relative URIs to be created.

ConfigurableWebEnvironment was introduced in 3.2.0.M1 with SPR-9439 in
order to break a cyclic dependency. At the same time, certain signatures
such as AbstractRefreshableWebApplicationContext#getEnviroment and
GenericWebApplicationContext#getEnvironment were updated to take
advantage of covariant return types and return this newer, more narrow
type and providing cast-free calls to ConfigurableWebEnvironment methods
where necessary. Similar changes were made to HttpServletBean in
3.2.0.M2 with SPR-9763.
Narrowing #getEnvironment signatures in this fashion required enforcing
at the #setEnvironment level that any Environment instance provided
(explicitly or via the EnvironmentAware callback) must be an instance of
ConfigurableWebEnvironment. This is a reasonable assertion in typical
web application scenarios, but as SPR-10138 demonstrates, there are
valid use cases in which one may want or need to inject a non-web
ConfigurableEnvironment variant, e.g. during automated unit/integration
testing.
On review, it was never strictly necessary to narrow #getEnvironment
signatures, although doing so did provided convenience and type safety.
In order to maintain as flexible and backward-compatible an arrangement
as possible, this commit relaxes these #getEnvironment signatures back
to their original, pre-3.2 state. Namely, they now return
ConfigurableEnvironment as opposed to ConfigurableWebEnvironment, and in
accordance, all instanceof assertions have been removed or relaxed to
ensure that injected Environment instances are of type
ConfigurableEnvironment.
These changes have been verified against David Winterfeldt's Spring by
Example spring-rest-services project, as described at SPR-10138.

After this change ParameterContentNegotiationStrategy no longer allows
a null parameter name, ContentNegotiationManagerFactoryBean also
requires it.

Fix deprecation compiler warnings by refactoring code or applying
@SuppressWarnings("deprecation") annotations. JUnit tests of
internally deprecated classes are now themselves marked as
@Deprecated.
Numerous EasyMock deprecation warnings will remain until the
migration to mockito can be completed.
Fix serialization warnings by applying @SuppressWarnings("serial")
when appropriate.
In certain cases and for unknown reasons, a correctly-placed
@SuppressWarnings("serial") annotation will fix the warning at the
javac level (i.e. the Gradle command-line), but will produce an
"unnecessary @SuppressWarnings" warning within Eclipse. In these
cases, a private static final serialVersionUID field has been added
with the default value of 1L.
In particular, avoiding synchronized Sets and Maps wherever possible (preferring a ConcurrentHashMap even instead of a synchronized Set) and specifying appropriate ConcurrentHashMap initial capacities (even if we end up choosing 16).
- Support external Javadoc links using Gradle's javadoc.options.links
- Fix all other Javadoc warnings, such as typos, references to
non-existent (or no longer existent) types and members, etc,
including changes related to the Quartz 2.0 upgrade (SPR-8275) and
adding the HTTP PATCH method (SPR-7985).
- Suppress all output for project-level `javadoc` tasks in order to
hide false-negative warnings about cross-module @see and @link
references (e.g. spring-core having a @see reference to spring-web).
Use the `--info` (-i) flag to gradle at any time to see project-level
javadoc warnings without running the entire `api` task. e.g.
`gradle :spring-core:javadoc -i`
- Favor root project level `api` task for detection of legitimate
Javadoc warnings. There are now zero Javadoc warnings across the
entirety of spring-framework. Goal: keep it that way.
- Remove all @link and @see references to types and members that exist
only in Servlet <= 2.5 and Hibernate <= 4.0, favoring 3.0+ and 4.0+
respectively. This is necessary because only one version of each of
these dependencies can be present on the global `api` javadoc task's
classpath. To that end, the `api` task classpath has now been
customized to ensure that the Servlet 3 API and Hibernate Core 4 jars
have precedence.
- SPR-8896 replaced our dependency on aspectjrt with a dependency on
aspectjweaver, which is fine from a POM point of view, but causes
a spurious warning to be emitted from the ant iajc task that it
"cannot find aspectjrt on the classpath" - even though aspectjweaver
is perfectly sufficient. In the name of keeping the console quiet, a
new `rt` configuration has been added, and aspectjrt added as a
dependency to it. In turn, configurations.rt.asPath is appended to
the iajc classpath during both compileJava and compileTestJava for
spring-aspects.

Previously it was cumbersome to associate data or behavior to a
DeferredResult because it was marked as final and had no extension
points.
Now DeferredResult is non-final which allows subclasses to associate
additional data and behavior to it.
Issue: SPR-10059
This change introduces a new AllEncompassingFormHttpMessageConverter
class that adds JSON and XML converters for individual mime parts of
a multi-part request. The new converter is used in place of the
previously used XmlAwareFormHttpMessageConverter.
Issue: SPR-10055
The servlet spec treats any jar in WEB-INF/lib as a web fragment:
"A plain old jar file in the WEB-INF/lib directory with no web-
fragment.xml is also considered a fragment" (section 8.2.1)
This change adds a web-fragment.xml giving the web fragment an
explicit name, "spring_web", and indicating there is no need
to scan for Servlet annotations in the spring-web.jar itself
through metadata-complete=true.
This allows applications that choose to include only specific
web fragments, through the <absolute-ordering> element in web.xml
to also include the "spring_web" fragment, in order to enable scanning
for WebApplicationInitializer types.
The @ModelAttribute javadoc now explicitly mentions that model content
is not available after an Exception is raised. This is a very common
question given that @ExceptionHandler methods are co-located with
@ModelAttribute and @RequestMapping methods.
