Before this change the getHttpEntityType method in
HttpEntityMethodProcessor raised an ISE if the generic type cannot be
detected. That made sense for resolving a controller method argument
where the target body type is crucial. However for a return value
the generic type should not be required since we either have an
actual body or no body at all in which case it doesn't even matter.
This change relaxes the checks and defaults to Object.class for the
ResponseEntity generic type on the return value side.

Prior to this commit, `ResourceTransformer` implementations would
resolve internal links to other resources: both relative and absolute
request paths.
For relative request paths, those transformers would call
`ResourceTransformerSupport.resolveUrlPath` with the resource path,
as provided in the original file. This can cause problems when a
`CachingResourceResolver` is configured in the resolver chain, because
this resolver is caching resources, deriving the cache key from the
given resource path — this can cause collisions for cases like this:
resources/
|--foo/
| |--foo.css (imports style.css)
| |--style.css
|--bar/
| |--bar.css (imports style.css)
| |--style.css
The first "style.css" resolved resource is then cached and will be given
to any request asking for "style.css".
To avoid those issues, this commit improves the `ResourceTransformer`
implementations to calculate the absolute request path before asking the
chain to resolve the resource URL, thus avoiding duplications.
The resource chain will be then asked to resolve "/foo/style/css" or
"/bar/style.css".

Prior to this commit, the `HttpEntityMethodProcessor` would avoid
writing ETag/Last-Modified response headers before calling
`ServletWebRequest` to process conditional requests. This was done to
avoid duplicate response header values due to headers being already
written to the underlying servlet response.
This is still necessary for GET/HEAD requests, since this is properly
handled by `ServletWebRequest` for those cases. But
`HttpEntityMethodProcessor` should not make that decision for
PUT/PATCH/POST responses since developers are adding response headers on
purpose and should be in control of the situation — whereas
`ServletWebRequest` does not write those headers in those cases.
Issue: SPR-14767
This commit overrides the `checkResource` implementation in
`ScriptTemplateView` in order to check if the template file resource is
available and if the resolver can then proceed with rendering the
template.

Cherry-picked from: 66b370e10
In order to simplify configuration for use cases involving @Bean where
only a bean name or aliases are supplied as an attribute, this commit
introduces a new 'value' attribute that is an @AliasFor 'name' in @Bean.
Issue: SPR-14728
Since appcache manifests can have various file extensions, developers
should register the (file extension, media type) mapping in their Spring
MVC / Reactive Web configuration.
This commit adds javadoc on both `AppCacheManifestTransformer` variants
to explain how to do that.
Issue: SPR-14510
Rather than setting the status to 503 directly from the timeout
interceptor which no longer seems to work reliably with Servlet
containers like Jetty even performing an additional ERROR dispatch back
to the original URL, we know rather set the DeferredResult to an
AsyncTimeoutException, which results in a dispatch and standard
handling within Spring MVC. This should be a more reliable way of
dealing with timeouts.
Issue: SPR-14669
This commit changes the default file extension configured with
`AppCacheManifestTranformer`. This ResourceTransformer was previously
considering `.manifest` files by default, but this has been changed in
the official spec to `appcache`, in order not to clash with Microsoft's
unregistered application/manifest type.
Issue: SPR-14687
`ResolvedResource` is a rather generic name - changing the extended
interface to something more meaningful: `HttpResource`.
For now, implementations are linked with the resource handling chain,
but this aspect has been removed from the interface documentation.
Issue: SPR-14264
Prior to this commit, the resource handling chain and its
`ResourceResolvers` would use specific `Resource` implementations in
order to add resource metadata to the HTTP response. For example,
`VersionedResource` and `EncodedResource` are both adding specific HTTP
response headers.
This commit aims at making this mechanism more stable and reusable,
since the previous implementation would fail in case a resolved resource
would be both a `VersionedResource` wrapping a `EncodedResource` (or the
other way arount). Only one of the specific implementations would
contribute its metadata since the code supporting that in
`ResourceHttpRequestHandler` would only check for `instanceof` tests,
whereas those implementations are acutally delegating calls to
the wrapped resource.
Now both `VersionedResource` and `EncodedResource` have been replaced by
specific implementations of `ResolvedResource`, which directly provides
those HTTP response headers as part of `getResponseHeaders()`.
This commit applies the same changes for the web reactive
implementations and its `ResourceWebHandler`.

Since SPR-14522, the web reactive framework supports checkNotModified
features. This commit aligns the existing MVC infrastructure with
web reactive's behavior.
Because of the new Servlet 3.0 baseline, some constraints
aren't relevant anymore and duplicate code has been removed in
`HttpEntityMethodProcessor`.
Issue: SPR-14659
This commit documents the regexp support in `AntPathMatcher` when
matching for URL patterns. This support is also mentioned in places
where developers can register patterns for ViewControllers or resource
handlers.
Issue: SPR-14652
This is a follow-up on commit 3b95e0b relaxing the expectation that a
ServletContext is present. Instead we check defensively and fall back
on PathExtensionContentNegotiationStrategy which can use JAF.
Issue: SPR-14577
This commit adds Smile and CBOR Jackson HttpMessageConverters
and make it possible to create Smile and CBOR ObjectMapper via
Jackson2ObjectMapperBuilder, which now allows to specify any
custom JsonFactory.
Like with JSON and XML Jackson support, the relevant
HttpMessageConverters are automaticially configurered by
Spring MVC WebMvcConfigurationSupport if jackson-dataformat-smile
or jackson-dataformat-cbor dependencies are found in the classpath.
Issue: SPR-14435
HttpEntityMethodProcessor should not throw IllegalArgumentExceptions for
invalid If-None-Match headers.
For those cases, this commit makes sure that both
`HttpEntityMethodProcessor` and `ServletWebRequest` have a consistent
behavior and stop processing the request as conditional and leave the
handler handle it.

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).

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 also removes the corresponding deprecated Servlet MVC variant and updates DispatcherServlet.properties to point to RequestMappingHandlerMapping/Adapter by default.
Issue: SPR-14129
Originally handleNoMatch looked for partial matches based on URL
pattern, HTTP method, consumes, produces, and params in that order
but without narrowing down the set of partial matches resulting in
potentially inaccruate response status codes
Commit 473de0 added an improvement to narrow the set with partial
matches for URL pattern and HTTP method matches.
This commit overhauls handleNoMatch so that the narrowing down of
matches happens at each stage resulting in more accurate error
reporting for request mappings with fine-grained conditions.
Issue: SPR-14397
As of 4.3 ResourceHttpRequestHandler delegates to the configured
ContentNegotiationManager, or one created internally, to look up
the media type for are resource.
This commit ensures the internally created ContentNegotiationManager is
correctly injected with the ServletContext through which it can perform
lookups as before.
Also the ServletPathContentNegotiationStrategy now checks the
ServletContext first and then delegates to its parent the
PathContentNegotiationStrategy and not vice versa. This is
consistent with how handleNoMatch (also in the same class) works
and also matches how ResourceHttpRequestHandler worked before 4.3.
Issue: SPR-14368
This commit sets the response content type to
"text/event-stream;charset=UTF-8". Even if the SSE spec says that the
encoding should always be UTF-8 and that specifying the charset is
optional, we're setting it in all cases, since some containers might use
the default encoding "ISO-8859-1" and confuse HTTP clients.
Issue: SPR-14407
This commit updates AbstractHandlerExceptionResolver to only log at the
WARN level exceptions that are actually resolved by the
ExceptionResolver.
In case developers wish to log each time an ExceptionResolver is called,
a DEBUG level log is still available.
Issue: SPR-14392
When comparing multiple matching @RequestMapping's, the HTTP method
condition has the lowest precedence. It's mainly about ensuring an
explicit mapping wins over an implicit (i.e. no method) one.
As of 4.3 HTTP HEAD is handled automatically for controller methods
that match to GET. However an explicit mapping HTTP HEAD allows an
application to take control.
This commit ensures that for HTTP HEAD requests the HTTP method
condition is checked first which means that an explicit HEAD mapping
now trumps all other conditions.
Normally we look for the most specific matching @RequestMapping.
For HTTP HEAD we now look for the most specific match among
@RequestMapping methods with a HEAD mapping first.
