Currently the combine method consolidates "/*" and "/hotel"
into "/hotel". However if the first pattern contains URI template
variables, the consolidation seems wrong. The fix is to prevent
the consolidation if the first pattern contains "{".
The UriComponentsBuilder instance passed into the method is initialized
with current request information including host, scheme, port, context
path, and the servlet mapping's literal part.
Also added shortcut methods to buildAndExpand in UriComponentsBuilder.
The initial solution kept these three in full sync at all times:
contentType field, characterEncoding field, 'Content-Type' header.
That is correct behavior, however it breaks existing tests that rely
on contentType and characterEncoding being equal to exactly what
they were set to.
For example, consider:
response.setContentType("text/plain");
response.setCharacterEncoding("UTF-8");
Ideally both contentType and the 'Content-Type' header would now be
"text/plain;charset=UTF-8". However, existing tests would expect
that contentType is equal to "text/plain".
To avoid breaking existing tests, contentType and characterEncoding
will continue to be equal to exactly what they were set to while
the 'Content-Type' header will always include both the content
type and the charset.
The only exception to this rule is when a 'Content-Type' header
is set explicitly, the contentType and characterEncoding fields will
be updated accordingly, possibly overriding the existing values.
The Content-Type header and the contentType field in HttpServletRequest/Response
are now always in sync. When a header is added the contentType field is updated
as well and vice versa.
Similarly when the Content-Type header or the contentType field includes a charset
field, the character encoding is updated and vice versa.
Since dynamic attributes were allowed in Spring 3, it raised the
possibility to specify a type attribute on a number of the form tags.
Where it makes sense (see below) that attribute is now rejected
and reversely where it makes sense it is accepted.
InputTag allows types other than "text" but rejects type="radio" or
type="checkbox" since there is a good reason for those to be used
only in conjunction with the appropriate form library tags.
Other HTML input tags such as PasswordTag, HiddenInputTag,
Checkbox(es)Tag and RadioBox(es)Tag check the dynamic attributes
and reject them if they contain a type attribute since.
Use of package private @Bean methods can cause issues if the class
is extended and the sub-class is in a different package. This is
covered in detail in SPR-8756.
When a @ModelAttribute is instantiated from a URI variable with type
conversion, if conversion fails allow the exception to propagate.
This is consistent with what happens on type conversion failure with
@PathVariable and other args that rely on type conversion.
Make it possible to hook in custom ServletRequestDataBinderFactory
by overriding RequestMappingHandlerAdapter.
Create ExtendedServletRequestDataBinder to add URI template vars
to the binding values taking advantage of a new extension hook in
ServletRequestDataBinder to provide additional values to bind.
RequestCondition types keep individual expression types (e.g. the
discrete header or param expressions) package private. Although the
implementation of these types should remain private, there is no
reason not to provide access to the underlying expression data --
e.g. for creating a REST endpoint documentation tool, or if you
want to know which of the "consumes"/"produces" media types
are negated.
This change ensures that all RequestCondition types have a public
getter that makes available the basic expression data.
1. Consider single-purpose return value types like HttpEntity, Model,
View, and ModelAndView ahead of annotations like @ResponseBody and
@ModelAttribute. And reversely consider multi-purpose return value
types like Map, String, and void only after annotations like
@RB and @MA.
2. Order custom argument resolvers and return value handlers after the
built-in ones also clarifying the fact they cannot be used to override
the built-in ones in Javadoc throughout.
3. Provide hooks in RequestMappingHandlerAdapter that subclasses can use
to programmatically modify the list of argument resolvers and return
value handlers, also adding new getters so subclasses can get access
to what they need for the override.
4. Make SessionStatus available through ModelAndViewContainer and
provide an argument resolver for it.
5. Init test and javadoc improvements.
When set to 'true' the flag makes RedirectAttributes the only way to add
attributes for a redirect thus ignoring the content of the default model
even if RedirectAttributes is not in the list of controller method args.
