Prior to this commit, and based on earlier changes supporting SPR-9023,
ConfigurationClassBeanDefinitionReader employed a simplistic strategy
for extracting the 'value' attribute (if any) from @Configuration in
order to determine the bean name for imported and nested configuration
classes. An example case follows:
@Configuration("myConfig")
public class AppConfig { ... }
This approach is too simplistic however, given that it is possible in
'configuration lite' mode to specify a @Component-annotated class with
@Bean methods, e.g.
@Component("myConfig")
public class AppConfig {
@Bean
public Foo foo() { ... }
}
In this case, it's the 'value' attribute of @Component, not
@Configuration, that should be consulted for the bean name. Or indeed if
it were any other stereotype annotation meta-annotated with @Component,
the value attribute should respected.
This kind of sophisticated discovery is exactly what
AnnotationBeanNameGenerator was designed to do, and
ConfigurationClassBeanDefinitionReader now uses it in favor of the
custom approach described above.
To enable this refactoring, nested and imported configuration classes
are no longer registered as GenericBeanDefinition, but rather as
AnnotatedGenericBeanDefinition given that AnnotationBeanNameGenerator
falls back to a generic strategy unless the bean definition in question
is assignable to AnnotatedBeanDefinition.
A new constructor accepting AnnotationMetadata
has been added to AnnotatedGenericBeanDefinition in order to support
the ASM-based approach in use by configuration class processing. Javadoc
has been updated for both AnnotatedGenericBeanDefinition and its now
very similar cousin ScannedGenericBeanDefinition to make clear the
semantics and intention of these two variants.

Prior to this commit, an infinite recursion would occur if a
@Configuration class were nested within its superclass, e.g.
abstract class Parent {
@Configuration
static class Child extends Parent { ... }
}
This is because the processing of the nested class automatically
checks the superclass hierarchy for certain reasons, and each
superclass is in turn checked for nested @Configuration classes.
The ConfigurationClassParser implementation now prevents this by
keeping track of known superclasses, i.e. once a superclass has been
processed, it is never again checked for nested classes, etc.

Prior to changes in commit 57851de88e,
AbstractResource#getFilename threw IllegalStateException unless
overridden by a subclass. Following that change, this method now throws
null instead, but ResourceTests#testAbstractResourceExceptions had not
been updated to reflect, resulting in a false negative failure. This has
now been fixed.

Eclipse allows autoboxing on type inference; Sun javac does not. This
means that variables assigned from calls to
AnnotationAttributes#getNumber should consistently use object wrappers
as opposed to number primitives. There was only one such instance
anyway, and has now been updated accordingly.
Prior to JDK 7, java.beans.Introspector registered indexed write methods
irrespective of return type, for example either of the following methods
were legal
void setFoo(int i, Foo foo)
Object setFoo(int i, Foo foo)
This was considered a bug and disallowed starting with JDK 7, such that
only the former signature is a candidate.
Supporting non-void returning setter methods is exactly what
ExtendedBeanInfo was designed to do, and prior to this commit, the
implementation of ExtendedBeanInfo assumed this (somewhat surprising)
behavior from the underlying Introspector, and because it worked out of
the box, took no extra steps to recognize and register these methods.
For this reason, non-void returning indexed write methods were not
registered under JDK 7+, causing test failures in ExtendedBeanInfoTests.
Now the implementation is careful to detect these methods without any
assumption about Introspector behavior, such that they are registered in
exactly the same fashion across JDK versions.
Issue: SPR-9014
Prior to this commit, ExtendedBeanInfo would add non-indexed write
methods without consideration for the presence of indexed read/write
methods, which is invalid per the JavaBeans spec and per the behavior
of java.beans.Introspector. That is, a method with the signature
void setFoo(Foo foo)
Should never be registered as a write method if the following method
signature is also present in the class
void setFoo(int i, Foo foo)
In most cases, this oversight caused no problems, but in certain
situations where a bean actually contains such a mismatch of methods,
"type mismatch" errors were thrown when ExtendedBeanInfo attempted the
illegal addition against the underlying property descriptor.
The implementation is now more careful about checking the parameter type
of write methods -- if the property descriptor in question is an
IndexedPropertyDescriptor, i.e. has an indexed write method, then any
non-indexed write method candidate must have a single *array* parameter,
which conforms to the spec and to Introspector behavior.

- Drop 'expectedType' parameter from #getClass and #getEnum methods and
rely on compiler inference based on type of assigned variable, e.g.
public @interface Example {
Color color();
Class<? extends UserType> userType();
int order() default 0;
}
AnnotationAttributes example =
AnnotationUtils.getAnnotationAttributes(Example.class, true, true);
Color color = example.getEnum("color");
Class<? extends UserType> userType = example.getClass("userType");
or in cases where there is no variable assignment (and thus no
inference possible), use explicit generic type, e.g.
bean.setColor(example.<Color>getEnum("color"));
- Rename #get{Int=>Number} and update return type from int to
<N extends Number>, allowing invocations such as:
int order = example.getNumber("order");
These changes reduce the overall number of methods exposed by
AnnotationAttributes, while at the same time providing comprehensive
access to all possible annotation attribute types -- that is, instead of
requiring explicit #getInt, #getFloat, #getDouble methods, the
single #getNumber method is capabable of handling them all, and without
any casting required. And the obvious additional benefit is more concise
invocation as no redundant 'expectedType' parameters are required.
Recent changes in ExtendedBeanInfo involve invoking
ClassUtils#getMostSpecificMethod when determining JavaBeans get/set
pairs; if Java security settings control disallow reflective access,
this results in an AccessControlException.
This change defends against this (comparatively rare) scenario by
catching the exception and falling back to returning the method
originally supplied by the user.
This change was a result of noticing CallbacksSecurityTests failing
following the ExtendedBeanInfo modifications mentioned above

The username is usually not null, but it could be for some embedded databases.
Always setting generatedKeysColumnNameArraySupported to false when getGeneratedKeysSupported is false, since it can't be supported without having generated keys supported. This change only affects logging messages.
Issue: SPR-9006
Adding a static CustomSQLExceptionTranslatorRegistry and a CustomSQLExceptionTranslatorRegistrar that can be used to register custom SQLExceptionTranslator implementations for specific databases from any application context.
This can be used in application contexts like this:
<bean class="org.springframework.jdbc.support.CustomSQLExceptionTranslatorRegistrar">
<property name="sqlExceptionTranslators">
<map>
<entry key="H2">
<bean class="com.yourcompany.data.CustomSqlExceptionTranslator"/>
</entry>
</map>
</property>
</bean>
Issue: SPR-7675
Prior to this commit, and due to idiosyncracies of
java.beans.Introspector, overridden boolean getter methods were not
detected by Spring's ExtendedBeanInfo, which relied on too-strict
Method equality checks when selecting read and write methods.
Now ExtendedBeanInfo uses Spring's ClassUtils#getMostSpecificMethod
against the methods returned from java.beans.Introspector in order
to ensure that subsequent equality checks are reasonable to make.
Issue: SPR-8949
ServletServerHttpRequest now falls back on the contentType and the
the characterEncoding of the ServletRequest, if the headers of the
incoming request don't specify one. Similary ServletServerHttpResponse
sets the contentType and the characterEncoding of the ServletResponse
if not already set.
This allows using the CharacterEncodingFilter to set a character
encoding where the request doesn't specify one and have it be used
in HttpMessageConverter's.
