framework and makes use of asynchronous assertions in order to make
tests for asynchronous events more robust.

Introduces getBeanProvider(Class) and getBeanProvider(ResolvableType), also narrowing getBean(String, Class) and isTypeMatch(String, Class) to a non-null Class argument and enriching NoUniqueBeanDefinitionException with a full ResolvableType. In addition, ObjectProvider supports iterable/stream access for collection-style resolution of multiple matching beans now, and collection injection falls back to an empty collection in a single-constructor case with non-null arguments.

This commit introduces a deferred initialization of the declared beans
in order to make it possible to access to the environment (and even
to the context for advanced use-cases) in the beans { } Kotlin DSL.
Issues: SPR-16269, SPR-16412
Spring's CGLIB fork is patched with local copies of affected files here, introducing the notion of a "contextClass" (e.g. the proxy superclass) which gets passed through to ReflectUtils.defineClass for delegating to MethodHandles.Lookup.defineClass eventually, against a privateLookupIn(contextClass) lookup context on JDK 9/10/11.
Issue: SPR-15859
This commit allows several DeferredImportSelector instances to be
grouped and managed in a centralized fashion. This typically allows
different instances to provide a consistent ordered set of imports to
apply.
Issue: SPR-16589
Autowiring implicitely Kotlin primary constructors
when there are secondary constructors has side effects
on ConstructorResolver. It seems reasonable to
require explicit @Autowired annotation in such case.
With this commit, implicit autowiring of Kotlin
primary constructors is only performed when there
is a primary constructor defined alone or with
a default constructor (define explicitly or
generated via the kotlin-noarg compiler plugin
or via optional constructor parameters with default
values).
Issue: SPR-16022
Includes unified detection of Kotlin's optional parameters in MethodParameter.isOptional(), reduces BeanUtils.findPrimaryConstructor to Kotlin semantics (for reuse in AutowiredAnnotationBeanPostProcessor), and finally introduces a common KotlinDetector delegate with an isKotlinType(Class) check.

Issue: SPR-16020
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
Bean-derived null values may still get passed into bean properties and injection points but only if those are declared as non-required. Note that getBean will never return null; a manual bean.equals(null) / "null".equals(bean.toString()) check identifies expected null values now. This will only ever happen with custom FactoryBeans or factory methods returning null - and since all common cases are handled by autowiring or bean property values in bean definitions, there should be no need to ever manually check for such a null value received from getBean.
Issue: SPR-15829
By using function literals with receiver, we can avoid requiring
lambda parameters for a shorter and nicer syntax. Based on a
proposal from Joseph Taylor.
Issue: SPR-15815
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
As a follow-up of the ApplicationContext Kotlin extensions, close to
the Kotlin functional WebFlux DSL and partially inspired of the
Groovy/Scala bean configuration DSL, this commit introduces a
lightweight Kotlin DSL for functional bean declaration.
It allows declaring beans as following:
beans {
bean<Foo>()
profile("bar") {
bean<Bar>("bar", scope = Scope.PROTOTYPE)
}
environment({ it.activeProfiles.contains("baz") }) {
bean { Baz(it.ref()) }
bean { Baz(it.ref("bar")) }
}
}
Advantages compared to Regular ApplicationContext API are:
- No exposure of low-level ApplicationContext API
- Focused DSL easier to read, but also easier to write with a fewer
entries in the auto-complete
- Declarative syntax instead of functions with verbs like registerBeans
while still allowing programmatic registration of beans if needed
- Such DSL is idiomatic in Kotlin
- No need to have an ApplicationContext instance to write how you
register your beans since beans { } DSL is conceptually a
Consumer<GenericApplicationContext>
This DSL effectively replaces ApplicationContext Kotlin extensions as
the recommended way to register beans in a functional way with Kotlin.

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
This commit introduces LocaleContextResolver interface, which is used
at ServerWebExchange level to resolve Locale, TimeZone and other i18n
related informations.
It follows Spring MVC locale resolution patterns with a few differences:
- Only LocaleContextResolver is supported since LocaleResolver is less
flexible
- Support is implemented in the org.springframework.web.server.i18n
package of spring-web module rather than in spring-webflux in order
to be able to leverage it at ServerWebExchange level
2 implementations are provided:
- FixedLocaleContextResolver
- AcceptHeaderLocaleContextResolver
It can be configured with both functional or annotation-based APIs.
Issue: SPR-15036
This commit also removes nullability from two common spots: ResolvableType.getType() and TargetSource.getTarget(), both of which are never effectively null with any regular implementation. For such scenarios, a non-null empty type/target is the cleaner contract.
Issue: SPR-15540
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
Defining nullability of some API like EnvironmentCapable
or ConditionContext causes issues in Spring Boot because
in the context where they are used, it is known for sure
they will return non-null values even if their API can in
other context return null values.
It is better in this case for both Java and Kotlin to
not define at all the nullabity of such API.
In practice, this is achieved by removing the package level
@NonNullApi annotation and adding it only on the
relevant classes.
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.
Issue: SPR-15540
This commit improves `AbstractValueAdaptingCache` to throw a dedicated
exception if `allowNullValues` is `false` and a `null` value is provided
anyway. This avoid a lower-level exception from the cache library that
will miss some context.
Issue: SPR-15173
Put the lambda parameter at the end and use a function
instead of a supplier to be able to register beans like this:
val context = GenericApplicationContext()
context.registerBean(Foo::class)
context.registerBean{ Bar(it.getBean(Foo::class)) }
Issue: SPR-15118
Based on an idea from Mario Arias, we can avoid requiring specifying
explicitly Supplier lambda type in Kotlin API by declaring the supplier
parameter as "crossinline supplier: () -> T" instead of
"supplier: Supplier<T>".
Issue: SPR-15118
This commit further refines 240f254 to also support java.util.Optional
for synchronized cache access (i.e. when the `sync` attribute on
`@Cacheable` is set to `true`).
Issue: SPR-14853
This commit makes sure that the `unregister` order of registered
application contexts has no incidence on the removal of the LiveBeansView
MBean.
Rather than using the last application context's name to compute the
identity of the MBean to remove, the identity is stored when the MBean is
created.
This commit also adds missing tests.

This is not a blind search and replace. The following occurrences
remain unchanged:
* references to old J2EE releases, most notably 1.3 and 1.4.
* references to "Expert One-On-One J2EE Design and Development"
* references to "Core J2EE patterns"

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
This commit adds a "spring-context-indexer" module that can be added to
any project in order to generate an index of candidate components defined
in the project.
`CandidateComponentsIndexer` is a standard annotation processor that
looks for source files with target annotations (typically `@Component`)
and references them in a `META-INF/spring.components` generated file.
Each entry in the index is the fully qualified name of a candidate
component and the comma-separated list of stereotypes that apply to that
candidate. A typical example of a stereotype is `@Component`. If a
project has a `com.example.FooService` annotated with `@Component` the
following `META-INF/spring.components` file is generated at compile time:
```
com.example.FooService=org.springframework.stereotype.Component
```
A new `@Indexed` annotation can be added on any annotation to instructs
the scanner to include a source file that contains that annotation. For
instance, `@Component` is meta-annotated with `@Indexed` now and adding
`@Indexed` to more annotation types will transparently improve the index
with additional information. This also works for interaces or parent
classes: adding `@Indexed` on a `Repository` base interface means that
the indexed can be queried for its implementation by using the fully
qualified name of the `Repository` interface.
The indexer also adds any class or interface that has a type-level
annotation from the `javax` package. This includes obviously JPA
(`@Entity` and related) but also CDI (`@Named`, `@ManagedBean`) and
servlet annotations (i.e. `@WebFilter`). These are meant to handle
cases where a component needs to identify candidates and use classpath
scanning currently.
If a `package-info.java` file exists, the package is registered using
a "package-info" stereotype.
Such files can later be reused by the `ApplicationContext` to avoid
using component scan. A global `CandidateComponentsIndex` can be easily
loaded from the current classpath using `CandidateComponentsIndexLoader`.
The core framework uses such infrastructure in two areas: to retrieve
the candidate `@Component`s and to build a default `PersistenceUnitInfo`.
Rather than scanning the classpath and using ASM to identify candidates,
the index is used if present.
As long as the include filters refer to an annotation that is directly
annotated with `@Indexed` or an assignable type that is directly
annotated with `@Indexed`, the index can be used since a dedicated entry
wil be present for that type. If any other unsupported include filter is
specified, we fallback on classpath scanning.
In case the index is incomplete or cannot be used, The
`spring.index.ignore` system property can be set to `true` or,
alternatively, in a "spring.properties" at the root of the classpath.
Issue: SPR-11890
Commit 240f254 has introduced support for `java.util.Optional` in the
cache abstraction. If such type is present, the contained value is cached
if it is present.
This new feature slightly changed the semantic of `#result` that was
documented up till this commit as the "return value of the method
invocation". This is no longer true as `#result` for `Optional<T>`
refers to the `T` instance and not the `Optional` instance.
This commit clarifies both the javadoc and the documentation.
Issue: SPR-14587
This commit removes `GuavaCache` and support classes. Caffeine supersedes
the caching support in the Google Guava library with an actively maintained
Java 8+ version in standalone form.
As it is the only Guava feature Spring framework integrates with, this
commit removes effectively any reference to Guava.

This commit also removes the corresponding deprecated Servlet MVC variant and updates DispatcherServlet.properties to point to RequestMappingHandlerMapping/Adapter by default.
Issue: SPR-14129
Prior to Java 8 it never really made much sense to author integration
tests using interfaces. Consequently, the Spring TestContext Framework
has never supported finding test-related annotations on interfaces in
its search algorithms.
However, Java 8's support for interface default methods introduces new
testing use cases for which it makes sense to declare test
configuration (e.g., @ContextConfiguration, etc.) on an interface
containing default methods instead of on an abstract base class.
This commit ensures that all non-repeatable, class-level test
annotations in the Spring TestContext Framework can now be declared on
test interfaces. The only test annotations that cannot be declared on
interfaces are therefore @Sql and @SqlGroup.
Issue: SPR-14184
It's handy to know in advance whether or not expression that is
passed to CronSequenceGenerator or CronTrigger constructor would
not results in IllegalArgumentException. The only way to do it
now is to try\catch an instance creation but it's kinda ugly.
This commit makes sure to reject an `@EventListener` annotated method
that also uses `@Async`. In such scenario, the method is invoked in a
separate thread and the infrastructure has no handle on the actual reply,
if any.
The documentation has been improved to refer to that scenario.
Issue: SPR-14113
This commit reverts the recently added merged annotation support for
Spring's JMX annotations by once again using the simpler searches for
repeatable annotations in AnnotationUtils.
Issue: SPR-13973
Prior to this commit, @Cacheable, @CacheEvict, @CachePut, and @Caching
could be used to create custom stereotype annotations with hardcoded
values for their attributes; however, it was not possible to create
composed annotations with attribute overrides.
This commit addresses this issue by refactoring
SpringCacheAnnotationParser to use the newly introduced
findAllMergedAnnotations() method in AnnotatedElementUtils. As a
result, @Cacheable, @CacheEvict, @CachePut, and @Caching can now be
used to create custom composed annotations with attribute overrides
configured via @AliasFor.
Issue: SPR-13475
Previously, a package private `@ManagedResource` annotated bean was
registered to the JMX domain even if any attempt to invoke an operation
on it will fail since it has to be public.
This commit validates that any `@ManagedResource` annotated bean is
public and throws an InvalidMetadataException otherwise. Note that the
actual bean type does not have to be public as long as the class
annotated with `@ManagedResource` in the hierarchy is pubic and no extra
operations or attributes are defined on the child.
Issue: SPR-14042
Previously, the generic type of a simple pojo event implementing
ResolvableTypeProvider wasn't detected properly. This commit fixes the
logic when the generic type is not provided to reuse what
PayloadApplicationEvent is already doing anyway.
Issue: SPR-14029
Previously, a ConfigurationClass created from AnnotationMetadata
and a ConfigurationClass created from a class would have subtly
different descriptions. Given a class named com.example.Foo, the
former’s description would be “com.example.Foo”, whereas the latter’s
description would be “class com.example.Foo”.
This commit updates ConfigurationClass to make the description
consistent, preferring the description without “class” in it.
Closes gh-970
This turned into the extraction of a common AbstractResourceBasedMessageSource base class which not only features addBasenames but also getBasenameSet and setCacheMillis.

Prior to this change SpEL did not have an syntactic

This change updates all cases where callbacks are invoked to catch and
suppress errors (since there is not match to do with and error from
a callback be it success or failure).
Also updated is the contract itself to clarify this and emphasize the
callbacks are really notifications for the outcome of the
ListenableFuture not the callbacks themselves.
Issue: SPR-13785
ConcurrentMapCacheManager and ConcurrentMapCache now support the
serialization of cache entries via a new `storeByValue` attribute. If it is
explicitly enabled, the cache value is first serialized and that content
is stored in the cache.
The net result is that any further change made on the object returned
from the annotated method is not applied on the copy held in the cache.
Issue: SPR-13758
Previously, if a `@Cacheable` method was accessed with the same key by
multiple threads, the underlying method was invoked several times instead
of blocking the threads while the value is computed. This scenario
typically affects users that enable caching to avoid calling a costly
method too often. When said method can be invoked by an arbitrary number
of clients on startup, caching has close to no effect.
This commit adds a new method on `Cache` that implements the read-through
pattern:
```
<T> T get(Object key, Callable<T> valueLoader);
```
If an entry for a given key is not found, the specified `Callable` is
invoked to "load" the value and cache it before returning it to the
caller. Because the entire operation is managed by the underlying cache
provider, it is much more easier to guarantee that the loader (e.g. the
annotated method) will be called only once in case of concurrent access.
A new `sync` attribute to the `@Cacheable` annotation has been addded.
When this flag is enabled, the caching abstraction invokes the new
`Cache` method define above. This new mode bring a set of limitations:
* It can't be combined with other cache operations
* Only one `@Cacheable` operation can be specified
* Only one cache is allowed
* `condition` and `unless` attribute are not supported
The rationale behind those limitations is that the underlying Cache is
taking care of the actual caching operation so we can't really apply
any SpEL or multiple caches handling there.
Issue: SPR-9254
Previously, if a managed bean had only one non-default constructor, we
should still annotate it with `@Autowired` to properly use constructor
injection. Not doing so resulted in an error as the container was
trying to call the default (non-existing) constructor.
This commit updates this behaviour to automatically applyed the
autowiring semantic to any bean that has only one constructor. As
before, if more than one constructor is defined, `@Autowired` must be
specified to teach the container the constructor it has to use.
Issue: SPR-12278

With this change the MapAccessor now extends CompilablePropertyAccessor
rather than just PropertyAccessor. This means that any expression that
ends up using the MapAccessor is now compilable for fast performance.
Issue: SPR-13638
Even though the JSR-107 spec forbids to store null values, our cache
abstraction allows that behaviour with a special handled (and this is
the default behaviour).
While this was working fine with our own set of annotations, the
JSR-107 interceptor counterpart was interpreting the spec sensu strictu.
We now allow for that special case as well.

Issue: SPR-13475
SPR-11512 introduced support for annotation attribute aliases via
@AliasFor, requiring the explicit declaration of the 'attribute'
attribute. However, for aliases within an annotation, this explicit
declaration is unnecessary.
This commit improves the readability of alias pairs declared within an
annotation by introducing a 'value' attribute in @AliasFor that is an
alias for the existing 'attribute' attribute. This allows annotations
such as @ContextConfiguration from the spring-test module to declare
aliases as follows.
public @interface ContextConfiguration {
@AliasFor("locations")
String[] value() default {};
@AliasFor("value")
String[] locations() default {};
// ...
}
Issue: SPR-13289
In addition to specifying the event type to listen to via a method
parameter, any @EventListener annotated method can now alternatively
define the event type(s) to listen to via the "classes" attributes (that
is aliased to "value").
Something like
@EventListener({FooEvent.class, BarEvent.class})
public void handleFooBar() { .... }
Issue: SPR-13156
Prior to this commit, the implementation of getRepeatableAnnotation()
in Spring's AnnotationUtils complied neither with the contract of
getAnnotationsByType() nor with the contract of
getDeclaredAnnotationsByType() as defined in AnnotatedElement in Java 8.
Specifically, unexpected results can be encountered when using Spring's
support for @Repeatable annotations: either annotations show up in the
returned set in the wrong order, or annotations are returned in the set
that should not even be found based on the semantics of @Repeatable.
This commit remedies this problem by deprecating the existing
getRepeatableAnnotation() methods and replacing them with new
getRepeatableAnnotations() and getDeclaredRepeatableAnnotations()
methods that comply with the contracts of Java's getAnnotationsByType()
and getDeclaredAnnotationsByType(), respectively.
Issue: SPR-13068
In AnnotatedElementUtils, all methods pertaining to merging annotation
attributes have been renamed to "getMerged*()" and "findMerged*()"
accordingly. Existing methods such as getAnnotationAttributes(..) have
been deprecated in favor of the more descriptive "merged" variants.
This aligns the naming conventions in AnnotatedElementUtils with those
already present in AnnotationReadingVisitorUtils.
The use of "annotationType" as a variable name for the fully qualified
class name of an annotation type has been replaced with
"annotationName" in order to improve the readability and intent of the
code base.
In MetaAnnotationUtils.AnnotationDescriptor, getMergedAnnotation() has
been renamed to synthesizeAnnotation(), and the method is now
overridden in UntypedAnnotationDescriptor to always throw an
UnsupportedOperationException in order to avoid potential run-time
ClassCastExceptions.
Issue: SPR-11511
Provide a mean to detect the actual ResolvableType based on a instance as
a counter measure to type erasure.
Upgrade the event infrastructure to detect if the event (or the payload)
implements such interface. When this is the case, the return value of
`getResolvableType` is used to validate its generic type against the
method signature of the listener.
Issue: SPR-13069
While working on SPR-12532, an extra IdentityWrapper was added to work
around a backward compatible issue between commons pool 1.x and 2.x. This
issue (POOL-283) has actually been fixed in 2.4 and their IdentityWrapper
is using object equality so our wrapper is in the way.
Looking retrospectively, the code looks all fine without the workaround
and commons pool 2.4 or later so it has been removed.
Since Spring 4.1, a CacheResolver may be configured to customize the way
the cache(s) to use for a given cache operation are retrieved. Since a
CacheResolver implementation may not use the cache names information at
all, this attribute has been made optional.
However, a fix was still applied, preventing a Cache operation without a
cache name to be defined properly. We now allow this valid use case.
Issue: SPR-13081
This commit introduces new 'cacheNames' attributes (analogous to the
existing attribute of the same name in @CacheConfig) as aliases for the
'value' attributes in @Cacheable, @CachePut, and @CacheEvict.
In addition, SpringCacheAnnotationParser.getAnnotations() has been
refactored to support synthesized annotations.
Issue: SPR-11393
Prior to this commit, @ComponentScan already had a value/basePackages
alias pair; however, the semantics were not properly enforced.
This commit addresses this issue by refactoring
ComponentScanAnnotationParser to ensure that it is not possible to
declare both of the aliased attributes. In addition, the 'value' and
'basePackages' attributes are now annotated with @AliasFor in order to
make the semantics clearer.
Issue: SPR-11393
Spring Framework 4.2 RC1 introduced support for synthesizing an
annotation from an existing annotation in order to provide additional
functionality above and beyond that provided by Java. Specifically,
such synthesized annotations provide support for @AliasFor semantics.
As luck would have it, the same principle can be used to synthesize an
annotation from any map of attributes, and in particular, from an
instance of AnnotationAttributes.
The following highlight the major changes in this commit toward
achieving this goal.
- Introduced AnnotationAttributeExtractor abstraction and refactored
SynthesizedAnnotationInvocationHandler to delegate to an
AnnotationAttributeExtractor.
- Extracted code from SynthesizedAnnotationInvocationHandler into new
AbstractAliasAwareAnnotationAttributeExtractor and
DefaultAnnotationAttributeExtractor implementation classes.
- Introduced MapAnnotationAttributeExtractor for synthesizing an
annotation that is backed by a map or AnnotationAttributes instance.
- Introduced a variant of synthesizeAnnotation() in AnnotationUtils
that accepts a map.
- Introduced findAnnotation(*) methods in AnnotatedElementUtils that
synthesize merged AnnotationAttributes back into an annotation of the
target type.
The following classes have been refactored to use the new support for
synthesizing AnnotationAttributes back into an annotation.
- ApplicationListenerMethodAdapter
- TestAnnotationUtils
- AbstractTestContextBootstrapper
- ActiveProfilesUtils
- ContextLoaderUtils
- DefaultActiveProfilesResolver
- DirtiesContextTestExecutionListener
- TestPropertySourceAttributes
- TestPropertySourceUtils
- TransactionalTestExecutionListener
- MetaAnnotationUtils
- MvcUriComponentsBuilder
- RequestMappingHandlerMapping
In addition, this commit also includes changes to ensure that arrays
returned by synthesized annotations are properly cloned first.
Issue: SPR-13067
This commit introduces first-class support for aliases for annotation
attributes. Specifically, this commit introduces a new @AliasFor
annotation that can be used to declare a pair of aliased attributes
within a single annotation or an alias from an attribute in a custom
composed annotation to an attribute in a meta-annotation.
To support @AliasFor within annotation instances, AnnotationUtils has
been overhauled to "synthesize" any annotations returned by "get" and
"find" searches. A SynthesizedAnnotation is an annotation that is
wrapped in a JDK dynamic proxy which provides run-time support for
@AliasFor semantics. SynthesizedAnnotationInvocationHandler is the
actual handler behind the proxy.
In addition, the contract for @AliasFor is fully validated, and an
AnnotationConfigurationException is thrown in case invalid
configuration is detected.
For example, @ContextConfiguration from the spring-test module is now
declared as follows:
public @interface ContextConfiguration {
@AliasFor(attribute = "locations")
String[] value() default {};
@AliasFor(attribute = "value")
String[] locations() default {};
// ...
}
The following annotations and their related support classes have been
modified to use @AliasFor.
- @ManagedResource

Similarly, support for AnnotationAttributes has been reworked to
support @AliasFor as well. This allows for fine-grained control over
exactly which attributes are overridden within an annotation hierarchy.
In fact, it is now possible to declare an alias for the 'value'
attribute of a meta-annotation.
For example, given the revised declaration of @ContextConfiguration
above, one can now develop a composed annotation with a custom
attribute override as follows.
@ContextConfiguration
public @interface MyTestConfig {
@AliasFor(
annotation = ContextConfiguration.class,
attribute = "locations"
)
String[] xmlFiles();
// ...
}
Consequently, the following are functionally equivalent.
- @MyTestConfig(xmlFiles = "test.xml")
- @ContextConfiguration("test.xml")
- @ContextConfiguration(locations = "test.xml").

Previously, a Bean implementing `AutoCloseable` (or `Closeable`) was
always destroyed regardless of its bean definition. In particular, the
documented way of disabling the destruction callback via an empty String
did not work.
AutoCloseable beans are now treated pretty much as any other bean: we
still use the presence of the interface to optimize the check of a
destroy method and we only auto-discover the method name to invoke if
the inferred mode is enabled.

In general, the Spring Framework aims to construct error message
strings only if an actual error has occurred. This seems to be the
common pattern in the codebase and saves both CPU and memory. However,
there are some places where eager error message formatting occurs
unnecessarily.
This commit addresses this issue in the following classes:
AdviceModeImportSelector, AnnotationAttributes, and
ReadOnlySystemAttributesMap.
The change in ReadOnlySystemAttributesMap also avoids a potential
NullPointerException.

Making sure that `GenericApplicationListenerAdapter` implements
`SmartApplicationListener` again as older code may try to cast an
instance to `SmartApplicationListener`.

This commit introduces support for finding annotations on abstract,
bridge, and interface methods in AnnotatedElementUtils.
- Introduced dedicated findAnnotationAttributes() methods in
AnnotatedElementUtils that provide first-class support for
processing methods, class hierarchies, interfaces, bridge methods,
etc.
- Introduced find/get search algorithm dichotomy in
AnnotatedElementUtils which is visible in the public API as well as
in the internal implementation. This was necessary in order to
maintain backwards compatibility with the existing API (even though
it was undocumented).
- Reverted all recent changes made to the "get semantics" search
algorithm in AnnotatedElementUtils in order to ensure backwards
compatibility, and reverted recent changes to
JtaTransactionAnnotationParser and SpringTransactionAnnotationParser
accordingly.
- Documented internal AnnotatedElementUtils.Processor<T> interface.
- Enabled failing tests and introduced
findAnnotationAttributesFromBridgeMethod() test in
AnnotatedElementUtilsTests.
- Refactored ApplicationListenerMethodAdapter.getCondition() and
enabled failing test in TransactionalEventListenerTests.
- AnnotationUtils.isInterfaceWithAnnotatedMethods() is now package
private.
