Prior to this commit, `@ExceptionHandler` annotated controller methods
could be mapped using the exception type declaration as an annotation
attribute, or as a method parameter.
While such methods support a wide variety of method arguments and return
types, it was not possible to declare the same exception type on
different methods (in the same controller/controller advice).
This commit adds a new `produces` attribute on `@ExceptionHandler`; with
that, applications can vary the HTTP response depending on the exception
type and the requested content-type by the client:
```
@ExceptionHandler(produces = "application/json")
public ResponseEntity<ErrorMessage> handleJson(IllegalArgumentException exc) {
return ResponseEntity.badRequest().body(new ErrorMessage(exc.getMessage(), 42));
}
@ExceptionHandler(produces = "text/html")
public String handle(IllegalArgumentException exc, Model model) {
model.addAttribute("error", new ErrorMessage(exc.getMessage(), 42));
return "errorView";
}
```
This commit implements support in both Spring MVC and Spring WebFlux.
Closes gh-31936
If multiple request mapping annotations are discovered, Spring MVC and
Spring WebFlux now log a warning similar to the following (without
newlines).
Multiple @RequestMapping annotations found on
void org.example.MyController.put(), but only the first will be used:
[
@org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.PutMapping(consumes={}, headers={}, name="", params={}, path={"/put"}, produces={}, value={"/put"}),
@org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.PostMapping(consumes={}, headers={}, name="", params={}, path={"/put"}, produces={}, value={"/put"})
]
Closes gh-31962
This commit extract spring-related links and recurring external links
into asciidoctor attributes to be used by the Antora toolchain.
It notably homogenizes links to:
- IETF RFCs
- Java Community Process JSRs
- the Java API Documentation (on the Java 17 version)
- Kotlin documentations (on the Kotlinlang.org version)
- the Spring Boot reference guide (on the `html` version)
This commit also reworks most link attributes to follow a
Project-Category-Misc syntax. For example, `spring-boot-docs` rather
than `docs-spring-boot`.
Finally, it makes an effort to clean up remainders from the previous
documentation toolchain, namely the `docs/asciidoc` folder and
`modules/ROOT/pages/attributes.adoc` file.

Previously the documentation assumed that the readers knew how to use
the X-Forwarded-* headers. This commit documents details & examples
of how to use the X-Forwarded-* headers.
See gh-31491
This commit improves the documentation for the
`ShallowEtagHeaderFilter`, stating that it is only meant to support a
subset of conditional HTTP requests: GET requests with "If-None-Match"
headers. Other headers and state changing HTTP methods are not supported
here, as the filter only operates on the content of the response and has
no knowledge of the resource being served.
Closes gh-30517
