Phillip Webb a27d1a28ff Bypass conversion when possible
Prior to this commit conversion between like types would often result in
a copy of the object. This can be problematic in the case of large byte
arrays and objects that do not have a default constructor.

The ConversionService SPI now includes canBypassConvert methods that can
be used to deduce when conversion is not needed. Several existing
converters have been updated to ensure they only apply when source and
target types differ.

This change introduces new methods to the ConversionService that will
break existing implementations. However, it anticipated that most users
are consuming the ConversionService interface rather then extending it.

Spring Framework

The Spring Framework provides a comprehensive programming and configuration model for modern Java-based enterprise applications - on any kind of deployment platform. A key element of Spring is infrastructural support at the application level: Spring focuses on the "plumbing" of enterprise applications so that teams can focus on application-level business logic, without unnecessary ties to specific deployment environments.

The framework also serves as the foundation for Spring Integration, Spring Batch and the rest of the Spring family of projects. Browse the repositories under the SpringSource organization on GitHub for a full list.

.NET and Python variants are available as well.

Downloading artifacts

See downloading Spring artifacts for Maven repository information. Unable to use Maven or other transitive dependency management tools? See building a distribution with dependencies.

Documentation

See the current Javadoc and reference docs.

Getting support

Check out the Spring forums and the spring and spring-mvc tags on Stack Overflow. Commercial support is available too.

Issue Tracking

Report issues via the Spring Framework JIRA. Understand our issue management process by reading about the lifecycle of an issue. Think you've found a bug? Please consider submitting a reproduction project via the spring-framework-issues GitHub repository. The readme there provides simple step-by-step instructions.

Building from source

The Spring Framework uses a Gradle-based build system. In the instructions below, ./gradlew is invoked from the root of the source tree and serves as a cross-platform, self-contained bootstrap mechanism for the build. The only prerequisites are Git and JDK 1.6+.

check out sources

git clone git://github.com/SpringSource/spring-framework.git

compile and test, build all jars, distribution zips and docs

./gradlew build

install all spring-* jars into your local Maven cache

./gradlew install

import sources into your IDE

Run ./import-into-eclipse.sh or read import-into-idea.md as appropriate.

... and discover more commands with ./gradlew tasks. See also the Gradle build and release FAQ.

Contributing

Pull requests are welcome; see the contributor guidelines for details.
