Prior to this commit, the Gradle build issued the following warning.
- The deprecated "gradleEnterprise.buildScan.value" API has been
replaced by "develocity.buildScan.value"
This commit removes the `-PmainToolchain` option from our build, since
it was not broadly used. Instead, the language level is now configured
in the `JavaConventions` for JDK 17.
The `-PtestToolchain` option is still available for testing Spring
Framework with other JDKs (i.e., compiling and running tests with a JDK
that's not the baseline).
See gh-30339
After setting up a JDK 20 CI build pipeline, numerous tests involving
date/time parsing and formatting began to fail [0]. (The failing JPA
tests are not specific to JDK 20.)
For example, we encounter visually confusing assertion failures such as
the following.
org.opentest4j.AssertionFailedError:
expected: "12:00 PM"
but was: "12:00 PM"
The expected string contains a normal space (which has always been the
case prior to JDK 20); whereas, the actual string now contains a narrow
non-breaking space.
The cause of this is mentioned in the JDK 20 Release Notes [1] as "NBSP
prefixed to a, instead of a normal space". Note, however, that the
links for the first two bullet points in that section are mixed up.
"NBSP prefixed to a, instead of a normal space" should point to [2].
Furthermore, the new whitespace character is not a non-breaking space
(NBSP) but rather a narrow non-breaking space (NNBSP). In addition, the
second bullet point should technically read "NNBSP prefixed to `a`,
instead of a normal space" -- even though `a` provides limited value to
most readers.
The downside for the Java community is that this constitutes a breaking
change for parsing and formatting date/time values that include "AM"
and "PM" units (any may potentially apply to other date/time
parsing/formatting scenarios). In Spring Framework's test suite we have
witnessed this in conjunction with Spring's @DateTimeFormat and
DateTimeFormatterFactory infrastructure as well as with Google's
Gson-to-JSON support.
A colleague who works at Oracle graciously informed me that one can use
"legacy locale data" by supplying `-Djava.locale.providers=COMPAT` as a
JVM argument, noting however that this option limits some newer
functionalities (but without enumerating which new functionalities one
might be missing when using this option).
In any case, this commit adds that JVM argument to our Gradle toolchain
builds so that our test suite passes on JDK 20, and we will continue to
investigate further options for our builds and for our users.
Note, however, that one must manually configure the
`-Djava.locale.providers=COMPAT` JVM argument when running affected
tests within an IDE.

Kotlin currently only supports JDK17 language level, which is our
minimum requirement so far.
This commit simplifies the toolchain setup until this is needed again.

This commit introduces a new `spring-framework-6.0.x` CI pipeline with
JDK 17 baseline.
Note that Kotlin still uses a JDK11 baseline for now, this will be
addressed in gh-27413.
Closes gh-27409
Prior to this commit, we registered custom values in the build scan for
the main and test toolchains based on input values provided via the
mainToolchain and testToolchain project properties.
Beginning with this commit, the custom values we register are based on
the available metadata for the resolved JDK/JVM for each toolchain.
For example, instead of registering the following custom value...
Test toolchain : JDK11
... we now register the following which includes the vendor, version,
and installation path of the JDK/JVM.
Test toolchain : AdoptOpenJDK 11 (/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/adoptopenjdk-11.jdk/Contents/Home)
Once Gradle's JavaInstallationMetadata includes the exact version, we
will likely use that instead of the installation path.
See gh-25787
This commit fixes various issues with the configuration of the Gradle
Java toolchain in the build.
First, the configuration of build properties is fixed in the CI pipeline
because it wasn't properly checked.
The JMH plugin is also upgraded and we now configure its toolchain
support.
This commit also rewrites the XJC tasks in the spring-oxm module,
leveraging a Gradle plugin that creates actual compile tasks we can
configure.
See gh-25787
Prior to this commit, the Spring Framework build would rely on
setting a custom Java HOME for building all sources and tests
with that JDK.
This approach is not flexible enough, since we would be testing
the source compatibility against a recent JDK, but not a common
case experienced by the community: compiling and running
application code with a recent JDK and the official, JDK8-based
Framework artifacts.
This method is also limiting our choice of JDKs to the ones
currently supported by Gradle itself.
This commit introduces the support of Gradle JVM Toolchains in
the Spring Framework build.
We can now select a specific JDK for compiling the main
SourceSets (Java, Groovy and Kotlin) and another one for
compiling and running the test SourceSets:
`./gradlew check -PmainToolChain=8 -PtestToolchain=15`
Gradle will automatically find the JDKs present on the host or
download one automcatically. You can find out about the ones
installed on your host using:
`./gradlew -q javaToolchains`
Finally, this commit also refactors the CI infrastructure to:
* only have a single CI image (with all the supported JDKs)
* use this new feature to compile with JDK8 but test it
against JDK11 and JDK15.
