Changes introduced in Spring 3.1 for Environment support inadvertently
established a cyclic dependency between the
org.springframework.web.context and
org.springframework.web.context.support packages, specifically through
web.context.ContextLoader's invocation of
web.context.support.WebApplicationContextUtils#initServletPropertySources.
This commit introduces ConfigurableWebEnvironment to break this cyclic
dependency. All web.context.ConfigurableWebApplicationContext types now
return web.context.ConfigurableWebEnvironment from their #getEnvironment
methods; web.context.support.StandardServletEnvironment now implements
ConfigurableWebEnvironment and makes the call to
web.context.support.WebApplicationContextUtils#initServletPropertySources
within its implementation of #initPropertySources. This means that
web.context.ContextLoader now invokes
web.context.ConfigurableWebEnvironment#initPropertySources instead of
web.context.support.WebApplicationContextUtils#initServletPropertySources
and thus the cycle is broken.

Prior to this change, AbstractApplicationContext#setParent replaced the
child context's Environment with the parent's Environment if available.
This has the negative effect of potentially changing the type of the
child context's Environment, and in any case causes property sources
added directly against the child environment to be ignored. This
situation could easily occur if a WebApplicationContext child had a
non-web ApplicationContext set as its parent. In this case the parent
Environment type would (likely) be StandardEnvironment, while the child
Environment type would (likely) be StandardServletEnvironment. By
directly inheriting the parent environment, critical property sources
such as ServletContextPropertySource are lost entirely.
This commit introduces the concept of merging an environment through
the new ConfigurableEnvironment#merge method. Instead of replacing the
child's environment with the parent's,
AbstractApplicationContext#setParent now merges property sources as
well as active and default profile names from the parent into the
child. In this way, distinct environment objects are maintained with
specific types and property sources preserved. See #merge Javadoc for
additional details.

As of Spring 3.1 URI variables can be used for data binding purposes in
addition to request parameters (including query string and form params)
In some cases URI variables and request params can overlap (e.g. form
contains a child entity with an entityId as hidden form input while the
URI contains the entityId of the parent entity) and that can lead to
surprises if the application already exists.
This change ensures that request parameters are used first and URI
vars are added only if they don't overlap. Ideally however an
application should not use the same uri variable name as the name of
a request parameter where they don't refer to the same value.

Jackson 2 uses completely new package names and new maven artifact ids.
This change adds Jackson 2 as an optional dependency and also provides
MappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter and MappingJackson2JsonView for use
with the new version.
The MVC namespace and the MVC Java config detect and use
MappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter if Jackson 2 is present.
Otherwise if Jackson 1.x is present,
then MappingJacksonHttpMessageConverter is used.

This was supported in DefaultAnnotationHandlerMapping but not in the
RequestMappingHandlerMapping. The specific scenario where this matters
is a controller decorated with a JDK proxy. In this scenario the
HandlerMapping looks at interfaces only to decide if the bean is a
controller. The @Controller annotation is better left (and required)
on the class.

Invalid Content-Type or Accept header values previously resulted in the
IllegalArgumentException getting propagated. After this change such
errors are detected and generally treated as a "no match", which
may for example result in a 406 in the case of the Accept header.

Ensure that both FlashMapManager methods - the one invoked at the
start of a request and the one invoked before a redirect, update
the underlying storage fully since it's not guaranteed that both
will be invoked on any given request.
Also move the logic to remove expired FlashMap instances to the
metohd invoked at the start of a request to ensure the check is
made frequently enough.

Prior to this commit, StandardServletEnvironment's servlet context
PropertySource remained stubbed out until it the ServletContext became
available and could be replaced during the refresh() of its enclosing
WebApplicationContext. This behavior is acceptable in most cases.
However, if the user has declared an ApplicationContextInitializer that
attempts to access servlet context-params via the Environment API, this
result in a kind of 'false negative', i.e. the context-param key and
value are actually present in the ServletContext, but the PropertySource
representing servlet context params is still a stub at this point,
meaning that it returns an empty result in all cases.
With this change, WebApplicationContextUtils#initServletPropertySources
is invoked eagerly by the ContextLoader if any ACI classes have been
declared. This swaps out the servlet context property source stub for
the real thing just in time for ACIs to use it if necessary.
Extra guard logic has been added to #initServletPropertySources to
ensure idempotency -- once the stub has been replaced, the method
never attempts the replacement again, e.g. during the normal context
refresh() when this method will be called again.
Issue: SPR-8991
- Perform early check whether any ACI classes have been declared and
exit immediately if not, avoiding any other processing
- Polish method names in ContextLoaderTests

The "default" FlashMapManager implementation added in 3.1 was invoked
after the redirect, which is too late in cases where the HTTP session
has not been yet been created since as the response is committed.
This change corrects the issue and makes other improvements to the
FlashMapManager implementation such as extracting a base
AbstractFlashMapManager class and making it easier for other
implementations to be added (for example cookie-based).
A direct path match with incorrect HTTP request method was causing another
request mapping with a pattern and a correct HTTP method to be ignored.
The bug affects the new @MVC support classes
(i.e. RequestMappingHandlerMapping).
It should be possible to progress from extending
WebMvcConfigurerAdapter (w/ @EnableWebMvc) to extending
WebMvcConfigurationSupport directly, to extending
DelegatingWebMvcConfigurationSupport. This change
makes that possible.
Previously flash attributes were automatically merged into the
model of annotated controllers only. This change extends the same
benefit to ParameterizableView- and UrlFilenameViewController,
both of which merely select a view without user controller logic
and (the views) would otherwise not have access to the flash
attributes.
When checking for an exact match of Accept header media types
additional parameters such as quality need to be excluded.
For example "*/*" matches "*/*;q=0.9".
- Eliminate trailing whitespace
- Update long method signatures to follow framework whitespace
conventions
Based on the following search,
$ git grep -A3 '^.public .* .*([^\{;]*$' */src/main
the strong convention throughout the framework when dealing with
methods having long signatures (i.e. many parameters) is to break
immediately after the opening paren, indent two tabs deeper and break
lines around 90 characters as necessary. Such signatures should also
be followed by a newline after the opening curly brace to break
things up visually.
The files edited in this commit had a particularly different style of
intenting arguments to align with each other vertically, but the
alignment only worked if one's tabstop is set at four spaces.
When viewed at a different tabstop value, the effect is is jarring,
both in that it is misaligned and significantly different from most
of the framework. The convention described above reads well at any
tabstop value.
Before this change, flash attributes could only be added if via
RedirectAttributes.addFlashAttribute(..) if the method returned
a view name or a View instance. With this change, the above is
supported with a ModelAndView return value as well.
Prior to this change, roughly 5% (~300 out of 6000+) of files under the
source tree had CRLF line endings as opposed to the majority which have
LF endings.
This change normalizes these files to LF for consistency going forward.
Command used:
$ git ls-files | xargs file | grep CRLF | cut -d":" -f1 | xargs dos2unix

Prior to this fix, ContextLoader(Listener)'s would overwrite any
value set directly against a WebApplicationContext's #setConfigLocation
method. This is a likely scenario when using Spring 3.1's new
WebApplicationInitializer support.
Now a check is performed to ensure that the ContextLoader init-param
value is non-null before doing the overwriting.
Added tests to ensure that all expected precedence, overwriting and
defaulting of context config locations works as expected.

In order to determine why classloading errors occur after
upgrading to 4.2.0.Final.
To demonstrate this error, uncomment the 4.2.0.Final dependency in
ivy.xml and run `ant test` within the .web.servlet module.
