The build now compiles with Servlet API 3.0 and JPA 2.0 both of which
are required with Spring Framework 4.0. However there are no hard
dependencies in Web Flow on either.
Issue: SWF-1600
Update JsfView to ensure that saveState() called when processing
events. This is required to ensure that the Mojarra StateContext
will unsubscribe listeners from the UIViewRoot.
Issue: SWF-1577
Convert all docbook XML files to well-formed docbook 5 syntax:
- Include xsi:schemaLocation element for tools support
- Convert all id elements to xml:id
- Convert all ulink elements to link
- Cleanup trailing whitespace and tabs
Use the Spring propdeps gradle plugin to handle all 'provided' and
'optional' dependencies. Maven dependencies are now also sorted to
to ease diff comparisons against older POMs.
Change JsfView.userEventQueued() to check for 'javax.faces.ViewState'
via the FacesContext rather than the RequestContext. This allows
potential multi-part request submissions to be processed by JSF rather
than Spring.
Issue: SWF-1482
The spring-binding BeanWrapperExpressionParser now supports the
setAutoGrowNestedPaths and setAutoGrowCollectionLimit properties, which
are in turn transfered to the underlying BeanWrapperImpl used in each
created and evaluated expression.
Issue: SWF-1566
This change makes it possible to use validation hints in conjunction
with declarative, JSR-303 validation. Such hints may be defined in an
attribute of the view state where the view state id itself is also
interpeted as a hint. A custom ValidationHintResolver can be plugged
in if necessary.
Issue: SWF-1453
Refactor JsfViewFactory to only attempt a restoreView when state is
available. This prevents a NullPointerException from being thrown
when using Mojarra with partial state saving disabled. This change
also makes Web Flow behave in a similar way to the standard
FacesServlet.
Issue: SWF-1571
Update SerializableListDataModel to extend the JSF ListDataModel
class. This is primarily to allow sorting operations to work with
PrimeFaces
Issue: SWF-1510
Recent updates to Mojarra added a SKIP_ITERATION hint when delivering
the PostRestoreStateEvent. Web Flow should follow the same logic.
Issue: SWF-1549
Moved all non-java files from src/main/java to src/main/resources.
Primarily to ensure resources are packaged into released jars but
also to conform with standard layout conventions.
ScopeSearchingPropertyAccessor.read() now returns a TypedValue
representing null rather than null itself. This prevents a
NullPointerException from being thrown from deeper within the Spring
SpEL code
Issue: SWF-1572
Introduce PortletFacesContextFactory that will be used to create the
FacesContext when running in a portlet environment. This moves logic
from the FacesContextHelper preventing the package tangle that would
otherwise occur.
Output from a flow can now be saved to the flash scope of Spring MVC
when the 'saveOutputToFlashScopeOnRedirect' property of the
FlowHandlerAdapter is 'true'.
For backwards compatibility this is an opt-in feature that must be
configured by the user.
Issues: SWF-1561
