Due to the deprecation of the TYPE_HIERARCHY_AND_ENCLOSING_CLASSES
search strategy (see gh-28079), this commit introduces a way for users
to provide a Predicate<Class<?>> that is used to decide when the
enclosing class for the class supplied to the predicate should be
searched.
This gives the user complete control over the "enclosing classes"
aspect of the search algorithm in MergedAnnotations.
- To achieve the same behavior as TYPE_HIERARCHY_AND_ENCLOSING_CLASSES,
a user can provide `clazz -> true` as the predicate.
- To limit the enclosing class search to inner classes, a user can
provide `ClassUtils::isInnerClass` as the predicate.
- To limit the enclosing class search to static nested classes, a user
can provide `ClassUtils::isStaticClass` as the predicate.
- For more advanced use cases, the user can provide a custom predicate.
For example, the following performs a search on MyInnerClass within the
entire type hierarchy and enclosing class hierarchy of that class.
MergedAnnotations mergedAnnotations =
MergedAnnotations.search(TYPE_HIERARCHY)
.withEnclosingClasses(ClassUtils::isInnerClass)
.from(MyInnerClass.class);
In addition, TestContextAnnotationUtils in spring-test has been
revised to use this new feature where feasible.
Closes gh-28207
