This commit makes it possible to specify port with an URI template variable.
For example :
RestTemplate restTemplate = new RestTemplate();
restTemplate.getForObject("http://localhost:{port}/resource", String.class, 8080);

This commit adds support for XML serialization/deserialization based on
the jackson-dataformat-xml extension. When using @EnableWebMvc or
<mvc:annotation-driven/>, Jackson will be used by default instead of JAXB2
if jackson-dataformat-xml classes are found in the classpath.
This commit introduces MappingJackson2XmlHttpMessageConverter and
MappingJackson2XmlView classes, and common parts between JSON
and XML processing have been moved to AbstractJackson2HttpMessageConverter
and AbstractJackson2View classes.
MappingJackson2XmlView supports serialization of a single object. If the model
contains multiple entries, MappingJackson2XmlView.setModelKey() should be
used to specify the entry to serialize.
Pretty print works in XML, but tests are not included since a Woodstox dependency
is needed, and it is better to continue testing spring-web and spring-webmvc
against JAXB2.

set(int index, JsonElement element)
- Many other smaller bug fixes

This change adds a new HttpMessageConverter supporting
Google protocol buffers (aka Protobuf).
This message converter supports the following media types:
* application/json
* application/xml
* text/plain
* text/html (output only)
* and by default application/x-protobuf
Note, in order to generate Proto Message classes, the protoc binary
must be available on your system.

userinfo when:
* the URI did not contain any path
* the query string contained the "@"

This commit introduces the RequestEntity, a class similar to
ResponseEntity, but meant for HTTP requests rather than responses. The
RequestEntity can be used both in RestTemplate as well as @MVC
scenarios.
The class also comes with a builder, similar to the one found in
ResponseEntity, which allows for building of a RequestEntity through a
fluent API.
Issue: SPR-11752
GroovyBeanDefinitionReader and Groovy ApplicationContexts redirect ".xml" files to XmlBeanDefinitionReader now, similar to what they've been doing for importBeans directives already. Analogously, @ImportResource for configuration classes redirects ".groovy" to GroovyBeanDefinitionReader now.
Issue: SPR-11924
Prior to this commit, calls to getAllow would fail is setAllow was set
to an EmptyCollection right before.
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: No enum constant
org.springframework.http.HttpMethod
This commit fixes this by testing the header value for an empty value
before trying to use it to get a value from the Enum.
Issue: SPR-11917
After this change, java.util.Optional is supported with @RequestParam,
@RequestHeader, and @MatrixVariable arguments in Java 8. When Optional
is used the required flag is effectively ignored.
