Spring Framework 6.2 introduced support for an escape character for
property placeholders (by default '\'). However, as of Spring Framework
6.2.6, there was no way to either escape the escape character or disable
escape character support.
For example, given a `username` property configured with the value of
`Jane.Smith` and a `DOMAIN\${username}` configuration string, property
placeholder replacement used to result in `DOMAIN\Jane.Smith` prior to
6.2 but now results in `DOMAIN${username}`. Similarly, an attempt to
escape the escape character via `DOMAIN\\${username}` results in
`DOMAIN\${username}`.
In theory, one should be able to disable use of an escape character
altogether, and that is currently possible by invoking
setEscapeCharacter(null) on AbstractPropertyResolver and
PlaceholderConfigurerSupport (the superclass of
PropertySourcesPlaceholderConfigurer).
However, in reality, there are two hurdles.
- As of 6.2.6, an invocation of setEscapeCharacter(null) on a
PropertySourcesPlaceholderConfigurer applied to its internal
top-level PropertySourcesPropertyResolver but not to any nested
PropertySourcesPropertyResolver, which means that the `null` escape
character could not be effectively applied.
- Users may not have an easy way to explicitly set the escape character
to `null` for a PropertyResolver or
PropertySourcesPlaceholderConfigurer. For example, Spring Boot
auto-configures a PropertySourcesPlaceholderConfigurer with the
default escape character enabled.
This first issue above has recently been addressed by gh-34861.
This commit therefore addresses the second issue as follows.
- To allow developers to easily revert to the pre-6.2 behavior without
changes to code or configuration strings, this commit introduces a
`spring.placeholder.escapeCharacter.default` property for use with
SpringProperties which globally sets the default escape character that
is automatically configured in AbstractPropertyResolver and
PlaceholderConfigurerSupport.
- Setting the property to an empty string sets the default escape
character to `null`, effectively disabling the default support for
escape characters.
spring.placeholder.escapeCharacter.default =
- Setting the property to any other character sets the default escape
character to that specific character.
spring.placeholder.escapeCharacter.default = ~
- Setting the property to a string containing more than one character
results in an exception.
- Developers are still able to configure an explicit escape character
in AbstractPropertyResolver and PlaceholderConfigurerSupport if they
choose to do so.
- Third-party components that wish to rely on the same feature can
invoke AbstractPropertyResolver.getDefaultEscapeCharacter() to obtain
the globally configured default escape character.

This commit overrides containsProperty() in
FallbackEnvironmentPropertySource for consistency with the
implementation of ConfigurableEnvironmentPropertySource.
See gh-34861
Although it's unlikely that the implementation of getPropertySources()
in a ConfigurableEnvironment would be overridden to return a different
MutablePropertySources instance than the one that the
ConfigurableEnvironment typically acts on, it is in fact possible.
In light of that possibility, this commit refactors
ConfigurableEnvironmentPropertySource so that it always obtains a fresh
PropertySources reference.

Commit 3295289e17 fixed a number issues with placeholder resolution in
PropertySourcesPlaceholderConfigurer. However, in doing so, it replaced
a raw PropertySource with a CompositePropertySource which implements
EnumerablePropertySource.
Consequently, all property sources registered in the Environment must
now implement EnumerablePropertySource (which is not an actual
requirement). Otherwise, invocations of getPropertyNames() on the
CompositePropertySource result in an IllegalStateException, and that is
a breaking change which resulted in numerous build failures within the
Spring portfolio.
To address that regression, this commit introduces a private
ConfigurableEnvironmentPropertySource in
PropertySourcesPlaceholderConfigurer which is a "raw" PropertySource
that delegates directly to the PropertySources in a
ConfigurableEnvironment.
This commit also extracts the raw PropertySource for direct Environment
delegation into a new FallbackEnvironmentPropertySource.

Currently, the placeholder resolution algorithm in
PropertySourcesPlaceholderConfigurer fails in several scenarios, and
the root cause for this category of failures has actually existed since
PropertySourcesPlaceholderConfigurer was introduced in Spring Framework
3.1.
Specifically, PropertySourcesPlaceholderConfigurer creates its own
PropertySourcesPropertyResolver that indirectly delegates to another
"nested" PropertySourcesPropertyResolver to interact with
PropertySources from the Environment, which results in double
placeholder parsing and resolution attempts, and that behavior leads to
a whole category of bugs.
For example, #27947 was addressed in Spring Framework 5.3.16, and due
to #34315 and #34326 we have recently realized that additional bugs
exist with placeholder resolution: nested placeholder resolution can
fail when escape characters are used, and it is currently impossible
to disable the escape character support for nested resolution.
To address this category of bugs, we no longer indirectly use or
directly create a "nested" PropertySourcesPropertyResolver in
PropertySourcesPlaceholderConfigurer. Instead, properties from property
sources from the Environment are now accessed directly without
duplicate/nested placeholder resolution.

In commit 05ebca8677, the `public` modifier was removed from the
SpringAtInjectTckTests class, which prevents it from being run as a
JUnit 3 test class.
To address that, this commit adds the missing `public` modifier as well
as a a code comment to help prevent this from happening again.
In addition, this commit updates spring-context.gradle to ensure that
the JUnit Vintage test engine is always applied. However, that Gradle
configuration is unfortunately ignored due to how our TestConventions
class has been implemented. Thus, that issue will have to be addressed
separately.

Historically, @Configuration classes that did not declare @Bean
methods were allowed to be abstract. However, the changes made in
76a6b9ea79 introduced a regression that prevents such classes from
being abstract, resulting in a BeanInstantiationException. This change
in behavior is caused by the fact that such a @Configuration class is
no longer replaced by a concrete subclass created dynamically by CGLIB.
This commit restores support for abstract @Configuration classes
without @Bean methods by modifying the "no enhancement required" check
in ConfigurationClassParser.

Prior to this commit, if a String 'value' attribute of an annotation
was annotated with @AliasFor and explicitly configured to alias an
attribute other than @Component.value, the value was still used as the
@Component name, but the warning message that was logged stated that
the 'value' attribute should be annotated with
@AliasFor(annotation=Component.class). However, it is not possible to
annotate an annotation attribute twice with @AliasFor.
To address that, this commit revises the logic in
AnnotationBeanNameGenerator so that it issues a log message similar to
the following in such scenarios.
WARN o.s.c.a.AnnotationBeanNameGenerator - Although the 'value'
attribute in @example.MyStereotype declares @AliasFor for an
attribute other than @Component's 'value' attribute, the value is
still used as the @Component name based on convention. As of Spring
Framework 7.0, such a 'value' attribute will no longer be used as the
@Component name.

Prior to this commit, `CronExpression` would support Quartz-style
expressions with "Nth occurence of a dayOfWeek" semantics by using the
`TemporalAdjusters.dayOfWeekInMonth` JDK support. This method will
return the Nth occurence starting with the month of the given temporal,
but in some cases will overflow to the next or previous month.
This behavior is not expected for our cron expression support.
This commit ensures that when an overflow happens (meaning, the
resulting date is not in the same month as the input temporal), we
should instead have another attempt at finding a valid month for this
expression.
Fixes gh-34360
Due to changes in gh-19118, classes that contain @Lookup methods are
no longer required to be concrete classes for use with component
scanning; however, the reference documentation still states that such
classes must not be abstract.
This commit therefore removes the outdated reference documentation and
updates the corresponding Javadoc.
