- Now avoiding NullPointerExceptions in GenericTypeResolver's
resolveReturnTypeForGenericMethod() in case the supplied ClassLoader
is null.
- AutowireUtils.resolveReturnTypeForFactoryMethod() now properly
asserts that the supplied ClassLoader is not null.
- Fixed copy-n-paste errors in Javadoc for
AutowireUtils.resolveReturnTypeForFactoryMethod().
Issue: SPR-10411
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
A few noteworthy minor changes: LocaleContext.getLocale() may return null in special cases (not by default), which our own accessing classes are able to handle now. If there is a non-null TimeZone user setting, we're exposing it to all collaborating libraries, in particular to JSTL, Velocity and JasperReports. Our JSR-310 and Joda-Time support falls back to checking the general LocaleContext TimeZone now, adapting it to their time zone types, if no more specific setting has been provided. Our DefaultConversionService has TimeZone<->ZoneId converters registered. And finally, we're using a custom parseTimeZoneString method now that doesn't accept the TimeZone.getTimeZone(String) GMT fallback for an invalid time zone id anymore.

Also internally renaming SimpleNonIndexedPropertyDescriptor to SimplePropertyDescriptor and preferring direct field access wherever possible.

Also, DefaultListableBeanFactory logs a warning when overriding an application definition with a framework-generated definition now, which is expected to be an accident.
Issue: SPR-10607
This turned into a rather huge affair since it led to the introduction of a new AutowireCandidateResolver implementation in the spring-context module. That ACR impl is now being set through AnnotationConfigUtils; GenericApplicationContext and co do not set a default QualifierAnnotationAutowireCandidateResolver anymore (which has always been a smell anyway). At the same time, dependency ordering has moved from AutowiredAnnotationBeanPostProcessor to DefaultListableBeanFactory itself through a "dependencyComparator" strategy, applying to constructor dependencies and lazy resolution proxies as well.
Issue: SPR-10353
Also, StandardReflectionParameterNameDiscoverer calls "Parameter.isNamePresent()" now to return null (and pass on to the next discoverer) if no JDK 8 parameters are available. Note that this requires OpenJDK 8 b100 or higher to compile now.
Issue: SPR-10532
This change should be the final piece in the puzzle to let SmartInstantiationAwareBeanPostProcessor's predictBeanType predict a FactoryBean-produced type, effectively as a semantic alternative to its postProcessBeforeInstantiation-related role.
Issue: SPR-10517
In particular, avoid accidental usage of ASM for core JDK types - which will fail in case of a new bytecode version in the JDK, even if the application itself has been compiled with an earlier bytecode target.
Issue: SPR-10292
Driven by the need for implementing Bean Validation 1.1's "releaseInstance" method in SpringConstraintValidatorFactory, as a direct counterpart to the use of AutowireCapableBeanFactory's "createBean(Class)" in "getInstance".

Issue: SPR-10304
This change means that we effectively revert SPR-8954's code change in favor of the isFactoryBean implementation simply relying on predictBeanType to sort it out, filtering a post-processed predictedType for FactoryBean applicability.
