This commit introduces the following changes.
1) It adds a new Spring @NonNull annotation which allows to apply
@NonNullApi semantic on a specific element, like @Nullable does.
Combined with @Nullable, it allows partial null-safety support when
package granularity is too broad.
2) @Nullable and @NonNull can apply to ElementType.TYPE_USE in order
to be used on generic type arguments (SPR-15942).
3) Annotations does not apply to ElementType.TYPE_PARAMETER anymore
since it is not supported yet (applicability for such use case is
controversial and need to be discussed).
4) @NonNullApi does not apply to ElementType.FIELD anymore since in a
lot of use cases (private, protected) it is not part for the public API
+ its usage should remain opt-in. A dedicated @NonNullFields annotation
has been added in order to set fields default to non-nullable.
5) Updated Javadoc and reference documentation.
Issue: SPR-15756
As of Gradle 4.0, project SourceSets can have multiple output
directories (one per programming language).
This commit fixes warnings that are logged when a single output dir
is considered by tasks.
Issue: SPR-15885
The main `build.gradle` file contains now only the common build
infrastructure; all module-specific build configurations have
been moved to their own build file.
Issue: SPR-15885
This commit ensure that null-safety is consistent between
getters and setters in order to be able to provide beans
with properties with a common type when type safety is
taken in account like with Kotlin.
It also add a few missing property level @Nullable
annotations.
Issue: SPR-15792
This commits extends nullability declarations to the field level, formalizing the interaction between methods and their underlying fields and therefore avoiding any nullability mismatch.
Issue: SPR-15720
Beyond just formally declaring the current behavior, this revision actually enforces non-null behavior in selected signatures now, not tolerating null values anymore when not explicitly documented. It also changes some utility methods with historic null-in/null-out tolerance towards enforced non-null return values, making them a proper citizen in non-null assignments.
Some issues are left as to-do: in particular a thorough revision of spring-test, and a few tests with unclear failures (ignored as "TODO: NULLABLE") to be sorted out in a follow-up commit.
Issue: SPR-15540
This commit introduces 2 new @Nullable and @NonNullApi
annotations that leverage JSR 305 (dormant but available via
Findbugs jsr305 dependency and already used by libraries
like OkHttp) meta-annotations to specify explicitly
null-safety of Spring Framework parameters and return values.
In order to avoid adding too much annotations, the
default is set at package level with @NonNullApi and
@Nullable annotations are added when needed at parameter or
return value level. These annotations are intended to be used
on Spring Framework itself but also by other Spring projects.
@Nullable annotations have been introduced based on Javadoc
and search of patterns like "return null;". It is expected that
nullability of Spring Framework API will be polished with
complementary commits.
In practice, this will make the whole Spring Framework API
null-safe for Kotlin projects (when KT-10942 will be fixed)
since Kotlin will be able to leverage these annotations to
know if a parameter or a return value is nullable or not. But
this is also useful for Java developers as well since IntelliJ
IDEA, for example, also understands these annotations to
generate warnings when unsafe nullable usages are detected.

xmlunit 2.1.0 is the latest release for xmlunit.
Most of the xmlunit functionality used within spring-framework
was done through the xmlunit 1.x helper class
`org.custommonkey.xmlunit.XMLAssert`.
As of xmlunit 2.0.0 most of the XML comparison methods are done
through hamcrest matchers exposed by the xmlunit-matchers
library. In some cases during the migration, the matchers
had to be customized with custom `NodeMatcher` or
`DifferenceEvaluator` instances in order to keep the assertions
correct (they were performed with xmlunit 1.x previously).
Issue: SPR-14043
This commit adds a test runtime dependency on log4j 2 for every project
and migrates all log4j.properties files to log4j2-test.xml files.
Issue: SPR-14431
This commit migrates all remaining tests from JUnit 3 to JUnit 4, with
the exception of Spring's legacy JUnit 3.8 based testing framework that
is still in use in the spring-orm module.
Issue: SPR-13514
Improved the SAX to StAX (and vice-versa) bridge exposed via StaxUtils.
The old integration had some issues with namespace declaration
attributes, brought to light in a XMLUnit upgrade.
Issue: SPR-11549
Prior to this commit, the codebase was using a mix of log4j.xml
and log4j.properties for test-related logging configuration. This
can be an issue as log4j takes the xml variant first when looking
for a default bootstrap configuration.
In practice, some modules declaring the properties variant were
taking the xml variant configuration from another module.
The general structure of the configuration has also been
harmonized to provide a standard console output as well as an
easy way to enable trace logs for the current module.
- Consistent importing of org.junit.Assert.*;
- Proper declaration of expected exceptions via @Test(expected).
- Renamed SpEL ExpressionTestCase to AbstractExpressionTests.
- Formatting and test method naming conventions.
XStream 1.4.5 doesn't check a given ConverterLookup for a ConverterRegistry implementation anymore, so we have to manually perform that check and assignment.
Issue: SPR-11147
Fix a variety of typos throughout the project, primarily in
comments (javadoc or otherwise) but also in a handful of log messages
and a couple exception messages.
ISSUE: SPR-11123
Fix remaining Java compiler warnings, mainly around missing
generics or deprecated code.
Also add the `-Werror` compiler option to ensure that any future
warnings will fail the build.
Issue: SPR-11064
Added "target-package" to the jibx-marshaller element. Also fixed "context-path" and "binding-name" to follow Spring's usual attribute naming convention.
Issue: SPR-10882
Also fixing an old XmlBeanFactory test that relies on "ref local" which is gone in the 4.0 xsd now, redeclaring the affected file to an older xsd version.
Added XStream CatchAllConverter that supports all classes, but throws
exceptions for (un)marshalling.
Main purpose of this class is to register this converter as a catchall
last converter with a normal or higher priority in addition to
converters that explicitly support the domain classes that should be
supported. As a result, default XStream converters with lower
priorities and possible security vulnerabilities do not get invoked.
Update ClassPathJaxb2TypeScanner to scan for @XmlRegistry classes.
Prior to this commit explicitly configured @XmlRegistry annotated classes
were not registered with the JAXBContext when using the 'packagesToScan'
property of the Jaxb2Unmarshaller.
Issue: SPR-10714
Previously the Jibx binding was commented out which caused failures when
using the TestGroup.CUSTOM_COMPILATION
Now the Jibx bindings are enabled when the CUSTOM_COMPILATION is enabled.
Issue: SPR-10558
Previously building with JDK > 1.8 b88 caused test failures due to errors
with custom compilers like Jibx and Jasper reports.
This commit adds a new TestGroup named CUSTOM_COMPILATION that allows the
CI server to continue to run these tests but allow committers to ignore
these tests.
Added 'processExternalEntities' property to the JAXB2Marshaller, which
indicates whether external XML entities are processed when
unmarshalling.
Default is false, meaning that external entities are not resolved.
Processing of external entities will only be enabled/disabled when the
Source} passed to #unmarshal(Source) is a SAXSource or StreamSource. It
has no effect for DOMSource or StAXSource instances.
Removed spring-beans.dtd (the 1.x variant) and spring-oxm-1.5.xsd (pre-Spring-Framework variant), in order to raise the backwards compatibility limit a little bit at least. We'll keep supporting the 2.0 and 2.5 xsd versions for the time being, as well as spring-beans-2.0.dtd.
Removed the ref 'local' attribute in spring-beans-4.0.xsd since 'local' lost its differentiating role to a regular bean ref back in the 3.1 days when we started allowing for the same bean id to reappear in a different beans section of the same configuration file (with a different profile).
Issue: SPR-10437
Swap the following EBR-specific dependencies for their equivalents at
Maven Central:
- atinject-tck
- jaxb
- xmlbeans
Remove the /ebr-maven-external repository from the build script entirely
such that all dependencies are now resolved against a single repository:
http://repo.springsource.org/libs-release
Fix deprecation compiler warnings by refactoring code or applying
@SuppressWarnings("deprecation") annotations. JUnit tests of
internally deprecated classes are now themselves marked as
@Deprecated.
Numerous EasyMock deprecation warnings will remain until the
migration to mockito can be completed.
"test" source and target compatibility has been upgraded to 1.7 except
where noted, allowing us to use 1.7 language features such as
diamond-style (<>) generics declarations, automatic resource management
and multi-catch. More importantly, we will be able to upgrade to 1.8
once it is available in order to make use of lambda expressions, etc in
our test cases.
IDE configurations must be relaxed to allow 1.7 across the board, as
neither Eclipse nor IDEA are clever enough to allow for different
language levels across production and test resources. See [1] for a
feature request on that front.
spring-oxm is a special case here, and has been pinned at 1.6
compatibility even for its test sources in order to avoid a class
verification error that JibX throws when encountering 1.7-level
bytecode [2].
Likewise with spring-orm, toplink encounters a similar class
verification error, so has been pinned to 1.6 for the time being.
When we remove the (already deprecated since 3.2) Toplink support
we can restore compatibility to 1.7.

Issue: SPR-10129
Fix serialization warnings by applying @SuppressWarnings("serial")
when appropriate.
In certain cases and for unknown reasons, a correctly-placed
@SuppressWarnings("serial") annotation will fix the warning at the
javac level (i.e. the Gradle command-line), but will produce an
"unnecessary @SuppressWarnings" warning within Eclipse. In these
cases, a private static final serialVersionUID field has been added
with the default value of 1L.
