Prior to this commit, it was only possible to register a
ContextCustomizerFactory in the TestContext framework (TCF) via the
SpringFactoriesLoader mechanism.
This commit introduces support for declarative registration of a
ContextCustomizerFactory local to a test class via a new
@ContextCustomizerFactories annotation.
Closes gh-26148
Prior to this commit, @BeforeTransaction and @AfterTransaction
methods could not accept any arguments. This is acceptable with testing
frameworks such as JUnit 4 and TestNG that do not provide support for
parameter injection. However, users of JUnit Jupiter have become
accustomed to being able to accept arguments in lifecycle methods
annotated with JUnit's @BeforeEach, @AfterEach, etc.
As a follow up to the previous commit (see gh-31199), this commit
introduces first-class support for parameter injection in
@BeforeTransaction and @AfterTransaction methods, as demonstrated in
the following example.
@BeforeTransaction
void verifyInitialDatabaseState(@Autowired DataSource dataSource) {
// Use the DataSource to verify the initial DB state
}
Closes gh-30736
Prior to this commit, it was unclear to users and third parties that it
is necessary to manually configure a StandardTypeLocator with a
specific ClassLoader to ensure that the SpEL expression parser is able
to reliably locate user types.
For example, the StandardBeanExpressionResolver in the spring-context
module configures a StandardTypeLocator using the bean ClassLoader of
the corresponding BeanFactory.
This commit improves the documentation to raise awareness of this fact.
Closes gh-26253
BlockingExecutionConfigurer#setExecutor takes an AsyncTaskExecutor
not an Executor as the documentation states. With this commit,
this has been corrected.
Closes gh-31150
Prior to this commit, the Spring Framework build would publish several
zip artifacts:
* a "*-schema.zip" containing all the XSD schemas produced
* a "*-docs.zip" containing the API docs
* a "*-dist.zip" containing all of the above, plus module jars
Since the reference docs are now produced by Antora in a separate
process, the "*-docs.zip" does not contain the reference docs anymore.
But it still contains the API docs which are automatically fetched from
the artifact repository and published on the docs.spring.io website.
This commit intends to update the current arrangement and optimize the
build.
First, the "*-dist.zip" is not published anymore, since it cannot be
consumed anyway by the community: repo.spring.io does not distribute
release artifacts publicly, developers are expected to get them from
Maven Central. This arrangement is quite dated anyway and is not really
useful in current application build setups.
The generation of API docs is moved to a new "framework-api" module,
separating it from the reference docs module ("framework-docs") which
contains Java, Kotlin and Asciidoctor sources. This removes the custom
javadoc aggregation task and instead uses a dedicated Gradle plugin.
This change also adds a new `-PskipDocs` Gradle project property that
skips entirely the documentation tasks (javadoc, kdocs) as well as the
"distrbution" tasks managed in the framework-api module.
This allows developers to publish locally a SNAPSHOT of Spring Framework
without creating the entire documentation distribution. This is
particularly useful for local testing.
For example, `$ ./gradlew pTML -PskipDocs`.
Closes gh-31049
Prior to this commit, `@Async` and `@EventListener` annotated methods
would lose the the logging and observation contexts whenever their
execution was scheduled on a different Thread.
The Context Propagation library supports this use case and can propagate
context values in ThreadLocals, Reactor Context and more.
This commit introduces a new `TaskDecorator` implementation that
leverages the Context Propagation library. When configured on a
`TaskExecutor`, this allows to properly propagate context value through
the execution of the task.
This implementation is completely optional and requires the
"io.micrometer:context-propagation" library on the classpath. Enabling
this feature must be done consciously and sometimes selectively, as
context propagation introduces some overhead.
