Update MatchAlwaysTransactionAttributeSource.getTransactionAttribute
to allow a null method argument. Passing a null method is not
recommended and is not indicated as valid in the Javadoc, however,
this was allowed in previous versions of Spring.
Issue: SPR-11048
Update ResolvableType to check that the resolved component type from
a generic array is not null before attempting to use it to generate the
resolved array class.
Issue: SPR-11044
In particular, do not apply them to GroovyObject methods and other kinds of synthetic methods in language runtimes. The only exception are bridge methods since those do eventually point to a user-level generic method.
Issue: SPR-10803
Introduced a "setCachePatterns(boolean)" method for explicit configuration, a default turnoff threshold at 65536 entries (at which point we're deciding that caching isn't worthwhile because patterns are unlikely to be reoccurring often enough), and an "AntPathStringMatcher getStringMatcher(String pattern)" template method.
Issue: SPR-10803
Spring 3.0 already allows component stereotypes to be used in a
meta-annotation fashion, for example by creating a custom
@TransactionalService stereotype annotation which combines
@Transactional and @Service in a single, reusable, application-specific
annotation. However, the Spring TestContext Framework (TCF) currently
does not provide any support for test-related annotations to be used as
meta-annotations.
This commit overhauls the TCF with regard to how annotations are
retrieved and adds explicit support for the following annotations to be
used as meta-annotations in conjunction with the TCF.
- @ContextConfiguration
- @ContextHierarchy
- @ActiveProfiles
- @DirtiesContext
- @IfProfileValue
- @ProfileValueSourceConfiguration
- @BeforeTransaction
- @AfterTransaction
- @TransactionConfiguration
- @Rollback
- @TestExecutionListeners
- @Repeat
- @Timed
- @WebAppConfiguration
Note that meta-annotation support for @Transactional was already
available prior to this commit.
The following is a summary of the major changes included in this commit.
- Now using AnnotationUtils.getAnnotation() instead of
Class.getAnnotation() where appropriate in the TestContext Framework.
- Now using AnnotationUtils.findAnnotation() instead of
Class.isAnnotationPresent() where appropriate in the TestContext
Framework.
- Introduced findAnnotationPrefersInteracesOverLocalMetaAnnotations() in
AnnotationUtilsTests in order to verify the status quo.
- AnnotationUtils.findAnnotationDeclaringClass() and
AnnotationUtils.findAnnotationDeclaringClassForTypes() now support
meta annotations.
- Introduced MetaAnnotationUtils and AnnotationDescriptor in the
spring-test module.
- Introduced UntypedAnnotationDescriptor in MetaAnnotationUtils.
- Introduced findAnnotationDescriptorForTypes() in MetaAnnotationUtils.
- ContextLoaderUtils now uses MetaAnnotationUtils for looking up
@ActiveProfiles as a potential meta-annotation.
- TestContextManager now uses MetaAnnotationUtils for looking up
@TestExecutionListeners as a potential meta-annotation.
- DirtiesContextTestExecutionListener now uses AnnotationUtils for
looking up @DirtiesContext as a potential meta-annotation.
- Introduced DirtiesContextTestExecutionListenerTests.
- ProfileValueUtils now uses AnnotationUtils for looking up
@IfProfileValue and @ProfileValueSourceConfiguration as potential
meta-annotations.
- @BeforeTransaction and @AfterTransaction now support ANNOTATION_TYPE
as a target, allowing them to be used as meta-annotations.
- TransactionalTestExecutionListener now uses AnnotationUtils for
looking up @BeforeTransaction, @AfterTransaction, @Rollback, and
@TransactionConfiguration as potential meta-annotations.
- Introduced TransactionalTestExecutionListenerTests.
- @Repeat and @Timed now support ANNOTATION_TYPE as a target, allowing
them to be used as meta-annotations.
- SpringJUnit4ClassRunner now uses AnnotationUtils for looking up
@Repeat and @Timed as potential meta-annotations.
- Moved all remaining logic for building the MergedContextConfiguration
from the DefaultTestContext constructor to
ContextLoaderUtils.buildMergedContextConfiguration().
- Verified meta-annotation support for @WebAppConfiguration and
@ContextConfiguration.
Issue: SPR-7827
Add getSource() method to ResolvableType and TypeDescriptor allowing
access to the underlying source field or method parameter when possible.
Primarily added to provide access to additional type information or
meta-data that alternative JVM languages may provide.
Issue: SPR-10887
DefaultListableBeanFactory performs a fallback check for autowire candidates now, which GenericTypeAwareAutowireCandidateResolver implements to accept raw type matches if the target class has unresolvable type variables. Full generic matches are still preferred; the BeanFactory will only start looking for fallback matches if the first pass led to an empty result.
Issue: SPR-10993
Issue: SPR-11004
Support repeatable @PropertySource annotations in Java 8 and add
@PropertySources container annotation for Java 6/7. Also add an
ignoreResourceNotFound attribute to @PropertySource allowing missing
property resources to be silently ignored.
This commit also introduces some generally useful methods to
AnnotationUtils for working with @Repeatable annotations.
Issue: SPR-8371
The key contract is MvcUrls. An instance is automatically created with
the Spring MVC namespace and the MVC Java config but can also be easily
created in any configuration.
Some example tests can be found in DefaultMvcUrlsTests.
Issue: SPR-10665, SPR-8826
MvcUriComponentsBuilder allows creating URIs that point to Spring MVC
controller methods annotated with @RequestMapping. It builds them by
exposing a mock method invocation API similar to Mockito, records the
method invocations and thus builds up the URI by inspecting the mapping
annotations and the parameters handed into the method invocations.
Introduced a new SPI UriComponentsContributor that should be implemented
by HandlerMethodArgumentResolvers that actually contribute path segments
or query parameters to a URI. While the newly introduced
MvcUriComponentsBuilder looks up those UriComponentsContributor instances
from the MVC configuration.
The MvcUriComponentsBuilderFactory (name to be discussed - MvcUris maybe?)
prevents the multiple lookups by keeping the UriComponentsBuilder
instances in an instance variable. So an instance of the factory could
be exposed as Spring bean or through a HandlerMethodArgumentResolver to
be injected into Controller methods.
Issue: SPR-10665, SPR-8826
Refactor TypeDescriptor to use ResolvableType in order to retain full
generic type information, in the process fixing MultiValueMap support
in MapToMapConverter.
Issue: SPR-9499
- Support for serialization
- Allow programmatic creation of an array from a given component type
- Allow programmatic creation with given generics
- Extract generics from Class types using Class.getTypeParameters()
- Move TypeVariableResolver to an inner class (and make method private)
- Refine 'resolve()' algorithm
Issue: SPR-10973
- Now avoiding NullPointerExceptions in GenericTypeResolver's
resolveReturnTypeForGenericMethod() in case the supplied ClassLoader
is null.
- AutowireUtils.resolveReturnTypeForFactoryMethod() now properly
asserts that the supplied ClassLoader is not null.
- Fixed copy-n-paste errors in Javadoc for
AutowireUtils.resolveReturnTypeForFactoryMethod().
Issue: SPR-10411
Includes revisions of MethodParameter and DependencyDescriptor (in particular towards a reference to the containing class). Also refines several ResolvableType method signatures.
Issue: SPR-9965
We're consistently resolving class names now, and the entire algorithm moved from GenericTypeResolver to the internal AutowireUtils helper in the bean factory package.
Issue: SPR-10411
Refactor AbstractMessageConverterMethodArgumentResolver and
BridgeMethodResolver to use ResolvableType in preference to deprecated
GenericTypeResolver calls.
Issue: SPR-10980
Add a new ResolvableType Class which encapsulates java.lang.reflect.Type,
providing access to supertypes, interfaces and generic parameters along
with the ability to ultimately resolve to a java.lang.Class.
ResolvableTypes may be obtained from fields, method parameters, method
returns, classes or directly from a java.lang.reflect.Type. Most methods
will themselves return ResolvableTypes, allowing easy navigation.
For example:
private HashMap<Integer, List<String>> myMap;
public void example() {
ResolvableType t = ResolvableType.forField(
getClass().getDeclaredField("myMap"));
t.getSuperType(); // AbstractMap<Integer, List<String>>;
t.asMap(); // Map<Integer, List<String>>
t.getGeneric(0).resolve(); // Integer
t.getGeneric(1).resolve(); // List
t.getGeneric(1); // List<String>
t.resolveGeneric(1, 0); // String
}
Issue: SPR-10973
A few noteworthy minor changes: LocaleContext.getLocale() may return null in special cases (not by default), which our own accessing classes are able to handle now. If there is a non-null TimeZone user setting, we're exposing it to all collaborating libraries, in particular to JSTL, Velocity and JasperReports. Our JSR-310 and Joda-Time support falls back to checking the general LocaleContext TimeZone now, adapting it to their time zone types, if no more specific setting has been provided. Our DefaultConversionService has TimeZone<->ZoneId converters registered. And finally, we're using a custom parseTimeZoneString method now that doesn't accept the TimeZone.getTimeZone(String) GMT fallback for an invalid time zone id anymore.
Issue: SPR-1528
Added extension to Future with capabilities for registering callbacks
when the future is complete.
- Added ListenableFuture, ListenableFutureCallback,
ListenableFutureCallbackRegistry, and ListenableFutureTask.
- Using ListenableFuture in AsyncRestOperations/AsyncRestTemplate.
- Added AsyncListenableTaskExecutor, implemented in
SimpleAsyncTaskExecutor.
- Added FutureAdapter and ListenableFutureAdapter.
Update AntPathMatcher Comparator to treat `/**` in the same way as
`null` paths.
Prior to this commit the pattern `/**` would be picked in preference
to patterns with 3 or more PathVariable (e.g. `/matches/{matchId}/
periods/{periodId}/teams/{teamId}/results`).
Issue: SPR-10550
Refine AntPathMatcher.combine rules to allow direct concatenation of
patterns when pattern1 does not contain '*.'. Prior to this commit
direct concatenation was allowed when pattern1 did not contain '.',
this prevented calls of the form:
pathMatcher.combine("/1.0", "/foo/test")
from working as expected.
This commit also applies some general cleanup to the `combine` method.
Issue: SPR-10554
This turned into a rather huge affair since it led to the introduction of a new AutowireCandidateResolver implementation in the spring-context module. That ACR impl is now being set through AnnotationConfigUtils; GenericApplicationContext and co do not set a default QualifierAnnotationAutowireCandidateResolver anymore (which has always been a smell anyway). At the same time, dependency ordering has moved from AutowiredAnnotationBeanPostProcessor to DefaultListableBeanFactory itself through a "dependencyComparator" strategy, applying to constructor dependencies and lazy resolution proxies as well.
Issue: SPR-10353
Also, StandardReflectionParameterNameDiscoverer calls "Parameter.isNamePresent()" now to return null (and pass on to the next discoverer) if no JDK 8 parameters are available. Note that this requires OpenJDK 8 b100 or higher to compile now.
Issue: SPR-10532
MimeType is available in core-spring and does not include support
for quality parameters and media used in HTTP content negotiation.
The MediaType sub-class in org.springframework.http adds q-parameters.
The method returning query parameters now returns only query string
parameters as opposed to any Servlet request parameter.
This commit also adds a ReadOnlyMultiValueMap.
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.
Add ByteBufferConverter that is registered by default with the
DefaultConversionService. Allows conversion from/to a ByteBuffer and
byte[] or to any type that can be converted via a byte[].
Issue: SPR-10712
Prior to this commit the Spring Framework did not provide a public means
for scanning for available server ports. However, the Spring Framework
internally used a FreePortScanner in integration tests within its own
test suite. Furthermore, Spring Integration 2.2 provides similar support
in a SocketUtils class in the spring-integration-test module.
This commit introduces SocketUtils in spring-core to replace the
FreePortScanner which was previously only used internally within
Spring's test suite. This new implementation is inspired by both Spring
Framework's FreePortScanner and Spring Integration's SocketUtils and
consequently attempts to merge the best of both previous
implementations.
Issue: SPR-8032
Develop new org.springframework.core.io.Resource implementation
backed by java.nio.file.Path. Primarily developed to allow custom
file system implementations to be used with Spring.
Since the minimum requirement for Spring is still Java 6 the
existing FileSystemResource can't be retrofitted (and no #getPath
method can be added to the Resource interface).
Unlike FileSystemResource, PathResource delegates to the underlying
file system instead of StringUtils. It has therefore slightly
different semantics. First, when building relative resources via
createRelative the relative path will apply to this path (like URL or
Unix). Second, equality is delegated to the underlying file system
provider so it's case-insensitive on Windows.
Issue: SPR-10608
JOpt 4.4 has enumerable options, so this change can be made
if we upgrade. The only awkward thing is that JOpt allows
aliases for options, so we have to pick one to avoid double
counting. This implementation picks the last one in the list
which is the alphebtically last of the long options, if there
are any (e.g. "o1", "option1" returns "option1"). Most of the
time there will only be one or two aliases for each option so
it won't matter.
Issue: SPR-10579
Update AnnotationMetadata and MethodMetadata to extend from a new
AnnotatedTypeMetadata base interface containing the methods that are
common to both. Also introduce new getAllAnnotationAttributes methods
providing MultiValueMap access to both annotation and meta-annotation
attributes.
Existing classreading and standard implementations have been
refactored to support the new interface.
Add temporary Assume.canLoadNativeDirFonts() method allowing failing
jasper report tests to be bypassed on OSX.
This should be revisited when JDK 8 is released.
Issue: SPR-10537
Specifically, we need to avoid "... ? this.method : this.constructor" expressions since those potentially select java.lang.reflect.Executable (which is only available on JDK 8) as common type and hardcode this into the generated bytecode (which therefore becomes JDK 8 dependent).
Aiming for the JdkVersion class to support one generation ahead now, in order for the test suite to properly detect 1.7/1.8+ JVMs even when running against a JDK 1.9 preview at some point.
ASM has been patched to accept 1.8 bytecode simply through removing an assertion. As a consequence, we have an embedded copy of the ASM sources now instead of jarjar'ing the original ASM jar. The sources originate from ASM 4.1; for CGLIB 3.0 compatibility, a further assertion has been removed.
Issue: SPR-9639
In particular, avoid accidental usage of ASM for core JDK types - which will fail in case of a new bytecode version in the JDK, even if the application itself has been compiled with an earlier bytecode target.
