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.
Previously the algorithm used by GenericConversionService to find
converters incorrectly searched for interfaces working up from the
base class. This caused particular problems with custom List
converters as as the Collection interface would be considered before
the List interface giving CollectionToObjectConverter precedence
over the custom converter.
The updated algorithm restores the class search order to behave in the
same way as Spring 3.1.

Prior to this change, the INSTANCE constant one could refer to on
AnnotationAwareOrderComparator actually referred to the constant
declared in the OrderAwareComparator superclass. Thus
AnnotationAwareOrderComparator#INSTANCE did not actually return an
AnnotationAwareOrderComparator but an OrderAwareComparator instead. This
commit introduces a dedicated constant on AnnotationAwareOrderComparator
to avoid this glitch.

Develop a new ConcurrentMap implementation that support both weak and
soft entry references. Intended primarily to be used internally to
support fast concurrent caching.
Issue: SPR-9796
Prior to this commit, calls to ConfigurableEnvironment#addActiveProfile
would cause any active profile values provided via the
"spring.profiles.active" property to be ignored.
Now these two mechanisms can be used in conjunction and work as
expected.

Bypass ObjectToObject conversion when source and object types are
identical and protect against a null source object.
Prior to this commit the TypeDescriptor was used to determine if
conversion was necessary. This caused issues when comparing a
descriptor with annotations to one without. The updated code
now compares using TypeDescriptor.getType().
The ObjectToObject converter will now no longer attempt to convert
null source objects.
Issue: SPR-9933
TypeDescriptor.valueOf now uses GenericCollectionTypeResolver to resolve
Collection and Map element types whereas previously this information was
simply not supported, i.e. null.
Issue: SPR-9257
Prior to this commit conversion between like types would often result in
a copy of the object. This can be problematic in the case of large byte
arrays and objects that do not have a default constructor.
The ConversionService SPI now includes canBypassConvert methods that can
be used to deduce when conversion is not needed. Several existing
converters have been updated to ensure they only apply when source and
target types differ.
This change introduces new methods to the ConversionService that will
break existing implementations. However, it anticipated that most users
are consuming the ConversionService interface rather then extending it.
Issue: SPR-9566
Introduce new ConditionalConversion interface that can be applied to
Converter, ConverterFactory or GenericConverter interfaces to make
them conditional. Prior to this commit the only
ConditionalGenericConverter could be conditional.
Issue: SPR-9928
Refactor internal workings of GenericConversionService in order to
better support future enhancements. This commit should not affect
existing behavior.

Prior to this commit, the PropertyResolver API (and therefore the
Environment API) allowed callers a choice between
#resolvePlaceholders and #resolveRequiredPlaceholders for low-level
${placeholder} resolution. However, when calling the higher level
#getProperty variants, users had no control over whether property
values returned with unresolvable ${placeholders} would result in an
exception or simply be passed through.
This commit introduces a #setIgnoreUnresolvableNestedPlaceholders
property via ConfigurablePropertyResolver, defaulting to false, the
value of which is respected by AbstractPropertyResolver#getProperty
method implementations. See the new test in
PropertySourcesPropertyResolverTests for usage examples.

Prior to this commit, JibxMarshaller used a SAX ContentHandler to
marshal to StAX XMLEventWriters, which inadvertently resulted in the
deletion of XML comments.
After this commit, JibxMarshaller adapts the XMLEventWriter into an
XMLStreamWriter and comments are preserved.

Class#getDeclaredMembers returns arbitrary results under JDK7. This
results in non-deterministic execution of JUnit test methods, often
revealing unintended dependencies between methods that rely on a
specific order to succeed.
JUnit 4.11 contains support for predictable test ordering [1], but at
the time of this commit, JUnit 4.11 has not yet been released.
Therefore we are testing against a snapshot version [2], which has been
uploaded to repo.springsource.org [3] for easy access. Note that this
artifact may be removed when JUnit 4.11 goes GA.
- Care has been taken to ensure that spring-test's compile-time
dependency on JUnit remains at 4.10. This means that the spring-test
pom.xml will continue to have an optional <dependency> on JUnit
4.10, instead of the 4.11 snapshot.
- For reasons not fully understood, the upgrade to the 4.11 snapshot
of junit-dep caused NoSuchMethodErrors around certain Hamcrest
types, particularly CoreMatchers and Matchers. import statements
have been updated accordingly throughout affected test cases.
- Runtime errors also occurred around uses of JUnit @Rule and
ExpectedException. These have been reverted to use simpler
mechanisms like @Test(expected) in the meantime.
- Some test methods with order-based dependencies on one another have
been renamed in order to fall in line with JUnit 4.11's new method
ordering (as opposed to actually fixing the inter-test
dependencies). In other areas, the fix was as simple as adding a
tearDown method and cleaning up state.
- For no apparent reason, the timeout in AspectJAutoProxyCreatorTests'
testAspectsAndAdvisorNotAppliedToPrototypeIsFastEnough method begins
to be exceeded. Prior to this commit the timeout value was 3000 ms;
on the CI server under Linux/JDK6 and JDK7, the test begins taking
anywhere from 3500-5500 ms with this commit. It is presumed that
this is an incidental artifact of the upgrade to JUnit 4.11. In any
case, there are no changes to src/main in this commit, so this
should not actually represent a performance risk for Spring
Framework users. The timeout has been increased to 6000 ms to
accommodate this situation.

Update the ReflectiveAspectJAdvisorFactory class to sort candidate
AOP methods based on their annotation first and method name second.
Prior to this the order of aspects created from annotated methods
could differ depending on the underling JVM, as first noticed under
JDK7 in SPR-9729.
- ConvertingComparator and InstanceComparator have been introduced in
support of this change, per SPR-9730.
- A shared static INSTANCE field has been added to ComparableComparator
to avoid unnecessary instantiation costs within ConvertingComparator
as well as to prevent generics warnings during certain caller
scenarios.

This change makes it possible to use the RestTemplate to read an HTTP
response into a target generic type object. The RestTemplate has three
new exchange(...) methods that accept ParameterizedTypeReference -- a
new class that enables capturing and passing generic type info.
See the Javadoc of the three new methods in RestOperations for a
short example.
To support this feature, the HttpMessageConverter is now extended by
GenericHttpMessageConverter, which adds a method for reading an
HttpInputMessage to a specific generic type. The new interface
is implemented by the MappingJacksonHttpMessageConverter and also by a
new Jaxb2CollectionHttpMessageConverter that can read read a generic
Collection where the generic type is a JAXB type annotated with
@XmlRootElement or @XmlType.

- renamed resolveParameterizedReturnType() to
resolveReturnTypeForGenericMethod()
- fleshed out Javadoc for resolveReturnType() and
resolveReturnTypeForGenericMethod() regarding declaration of formal
type variables
- improved wording in log statements and naming of local variables
within resolveReturnTypeForGenericMethod()

For legacy reasons, a MockEnvironment implementation already exists in multiple places within Spring's test suite; however, it is not available to the general public.
This commit promotes MockEnvironment to a first-class citizen in the spring-test module, alongside the existing MockPropertySource.
In addition, the following house cleaning has been performed.
- deleted MockPropertySource from the spring-expression module
- deleted MockEnvironment from the "spring" integration testing module
- updated test copies of MockPropertySource and MockEnvironment
- documented MockEnvironment and MockPropertySource in the testing
chapter of the reference manual
Issue: SPR-9492
Prior to this change, PropertySourcesPropertyResolver (and therefore
all AbstractEnvironment) implementations failed to resolve nested
placeholders as in the following example:
p1=v1
p2=v2
p3=${v1}:{$v2}
Calls to PropertySource#getProperty for keys 'p1' and 'v1' would
successfully return their respective values, but for 'p3' the return
value would be the unresolved placeholders. This behavior is
inconsistent with that of PropertyPlaceholderConfigurer.
PropertySourcesPropertyResolver #getProperty variants now resolve any
nested placeholders recursively, throwing IllegalArgumentException for
any unresolvable placeholders (as is the default behavior for
PropertyPlaceholderConfigurer). See SPR-9569 for an enhancement that
will intoduce an 'ignoreUnresolvablePlaceholders' switch to make this
behavior configurable.
This commit also improves error output in
PropertyPlaceholderHelper#parseStringValue by including the original
string in which an unresolvable placeholder was found.
Issue: SPR-9473, SPR-9569
Currently, if a factory method is parameterized and the corresponding
variable types are declared on the method itself instead of on the
enclosing class or interface, Spring always predicts the return type to
be Object, even if the return type can be explicitly inferred from the
method signature and supplied arguments (which are available in the bean
definition).
This commit introduces a new resolveParameterizedReturnType() method in
GenericTypeResolver that attempts to infer the concrete type for the
generic return type of a given parameterized method, falling back to the
standard return type if necessary. Furthermore,
AbstractAutowireCapableBeanFactory now delegates to
resolveParameterizedReturnType() when predicting the return type for
factory methods.
resolveParameterizedReturnType() is capable of inferring the concrete
type for return type T for method signatures similar to the following.
Such methods may potentially be static. Also, the formal argument list
for such methods is not limited to a single argument.
- public <T> T foo(Class<T> clazz)
- public <T> T foo(Object obj, Class<T> clazz)
- public <V, T> T foo(V obj, Class<T> clazz)
- public <T> T foo(T obj)
