Includes a change for factory methods that declare their return type as FactoryBean: When asked for a specific type match (e.g. LoadTimeWeaverAware), we do check early singleton instances as well (reusing the instances that we create for getObjectType checks). This is necessary in order to make @Bean method introspection as capable as XML bean definition introspection, even in case of the @Bean method using a generic FactoryBean declaration for its return type (instead of the FactoryBean impl class).
Issue: SPR-9857
This change fixes further cases under JDK 6 in which setting a bridged
(e.g. String-returning) read method can conflict with an existing
corresponding bridge write method that accepts an Object parameter.
This appears to be a implementation difference between JDKs 6 and 7,
where the JDK 6 Introspector adds bridge methods and JDK 7 does not.
The solution here is to consistently null-out any existing write method
before setting the read method. We were doing this elsewhere in
ExtendedBeanInfo already, but these two changes make the approach
consistent throuhout.
Issue: SPR-8806
Autowired methods might have been skipped on subsequent creation of further bean instances due to the 'skip' flag set to false outside of the synchronized block, with another thread entering the block and setting the flag to true in the meantime.

This commit refactors the BeanInfoFactory so that:
- supports() and getBeanInfo() are folded into one, so that getBeanInfo()
returns null if a given class is not supported.
- CachedIntrospectionResults now uses SpringFactoriesLoader
Prior to this change, CachedIntrospectionResults delegated to
ExtendedBeanInfo by default in order to inspect JavaBean
PropertyDescriptor information for bean classes.
Originally introduced with SPR-8079, ExtendedBeanInfo was designed to
go beyond the capabilities of the default JavaBeans Introspector in
order to support non-void returning setter methods, principally to
support use of builder-style APIs within Spring XML. This is a complex
affair, and the non-trivial logic in ExtendedBeanInfo has led to various
bugs including regressions for bean classes that do not declare
non-void returning setters.
This commit takes advantage of the new BeanInfoFactory mechanism
introduced in SPR-9677 to take ExtendedBeanInfo out of the default code
path for CachedIntrospectionResults. Now, the new
ExtendedBeanInfoFactory class will be detected and instantiated (per its
entry in the META-INF/spring.beanInfoFactories properties file shipped
with the spring-beans jar). ExtendedBeanInfoFactory#supports is invoked
for all bean classes in order to determine whether they are candidates
for ExtendedBeanInfo introspection, i.e. whether they declare non-void
returning setter methods.
If a class does not declare any such non-standard setter methods (the
99% case), then CachedIntrospectionResults will fall back to the
default JavaBeans Introspector. While efforts have been made to fix any
bugs with ExtendedBeanInfo, this change means that EBI will not pose
any future risk for bean classes that do not declare non-standard
setter methods, and also means greater efficiency in general.

- Ensure that ExtendedBeanInfoTests succeeds when building under JDK 7
- Improve handling of read and write method registration where
generic interfaces are involved, per SPR-9453
- Add repro test for SPR-9702, in which EBI fails to register
an indexed read method under certain circumstances
Issue: SPR-9702, SPR-9414, SPR-9453
Before this commit, the CachedIntrospectionResults was hard-coded to
create ExtendedBeanInfos for bean classes. The ExtendedBeanInfo support
the JavaBeans property contract only.
This commit introduces the BeanInfoFactory, a strategy for creating
BeanInfos. Through this strategy, it is possible to support
beans that do not necessarily implement the JavaBeans contract (i.e.
have a different getter or setter style).
BeanInfoFactories are are instantiated by the
CachedIntrospectionResults, which looks for
'META-INF/spring.beanInfoFactories' files on the class path. These files
contain one or more BeanInfoFactory class names. When a BeanInfo is to
be created, the CachedIntrospectionResults will iterate through the
factories, asking it to create a BeanInfo for the given bean class. If
none of the factories support it, an ExtendedBeanInfo is created as a
default.
This commit also contains a change to Property, allowing BeanWrapperImpl
to specify the property name at construction time (as opposed to using
Property#resolveName(), which supports the JavaBeans contract only).
Issue: SPR-9677
CGLIB 3 has been released in order to depend on ASM 4, which Spring now
depends on internally (see previous commit).
This commit eliminates spring-beans' optional dependency on cglib-nodep
v2.2 and instead repackages net.sf.cglib => org.springframework.cglib
much in the same way we have historically done with ASM.
This change is beneficial to users in several ways:
- Eliminates the need to manually add CGLIB to the application
classpath; especially important for the growing number of
@Configuration class users. Java-based configuration functionality,
along with proxy-target-class and method injection features now
work 'out of the box' in Spring 3.2.
- Eliminates the possibility of conflicts with other libraries that
may dependend on differing versions of CGLIB, e.g. Hibernate
3.3.1.ga and its dependency on CGLIB 2.1.3 would easily cause a
conflict if the application were depending on CGLIB 3 for
Spring-related purposes.
- Picks up CGLIB 3's changes to support ASM 4, meaning that CGLIB is
that much less likely to work well in a Java 7 environment due to
ASM 4's support for transforming classes with invokedynamic
bytecode instructions.
On CGLIB and ASM:
CGLIB's own dependency on ASM is also transformed along the way to
depend on Spring's repackaged org.springframework.asm, primarily to
eliminate unnecessary duplication of ASM classfiles in spring-core and
in the process save around 100K in the final spring-core JAR file size.
It is coincidental that spring-core and CGLIB currently depend on the
exact same version of ASM (4.0), but it is also unlikely to change any
time soon. If this change does occur and versions of ASM drift, then
the size optimization mentioned above will have to be abandoned. This
would have no compatibility impact, however, so this is a reasonable
solution now and for the forseeable future.
On a mysterious NoClassDefFoundError:
During the upgrade to CGLIB 3.0, Spring test cases began failing due to
NoClassDefFoundErrors being thrown from CGLIB's DebuggingClassWriter
regarding its use of asm-util's TraceClassVisitor type. previous
versions of cglib-nodep, particularly 2.2, did not cause this behavior,
even though cglib-nodep has never actually repackaged and bundled
asm-util classes. The reason for these NoClassDefFoundErrors occurring
now is still not fully understood, but appears to be due to subtle JVM
bytecode preverification rules. The hypothesis is that due to minor
changes in DebuggingClassWriter such as additional casts, access to
instance variables declared in the superclass, and indeed a change in
the superclass hierarchy, preverification may be kicking in on the
toByteArray method body, at which point the reference to the missing
TraceClassVisitor type is noticed and the NCDFE is thrown. For this
reason, a dummy implementation of TraceClassVisitor has been added to
spring-core in the org.springframework.asm.util package. This class
simply ensures that Spring's own tests never result in the NCDFE
described above, and more importantly that Spring's users never
encounter the same.
Other changes include:
- rename package-private Cglib2AopProxy => CglibAopProxy
- eliminate all 'cglibAvailable' checks, warnings and errors
- eliminate all 'CGLIB2' language in favor of 'CGLIB'
- eliminate all mention in reference and java docs of needing to add
cglib(-nodep) to one's application classpath

- renamed resolveParameterizedReturnType() to
resolveReturnTypeForGenericMethod()
- fleshed out Javadoc for resolveReturnType() and
resolveReturnTypeForGenericMethod() regarding declaration of formal
type variables
- improved wording in log statements and naming of local variables
within resolveReturnTypeForGenericMethod()
Issue: SPR-9493
Currently, if a factory method is parameterized and the corresponding
variable types are declared on the method itself instead of on the
enclosing class or interface, Spring always predicts the return type to
be Object, even if the return type can be explicitly inferred from the
method signature and supplied arguments (which are available in the bean
definition).
This commit introduces a new resolveParameterizedReturnType() method in
GenericTypeResolver that attempts to infer the concrete type for the
generic return type of a given parameterized method, falling back to the
standard return type if necessary. Furthermore,
AbstractAutowireCapableBeanFactory now delegates to
resolveParameterizedReturnType() when predicting the return type for
factory methods.
resolveParameterizedReturnType() is capable of inferring the concrete
type for return type T for method signatures similar to the following.
Such methods may potentially be static. Also, the formal argument list
for such methods is not limited to a single argument.
- public <T> T foo(Class<T> clazz)
- public <T> T foo(Object obj, Class<T> clazz)
- public <V, T> T foo(V obj, Class<T> clazz)
- public <T> T foo(T obj)
Issue: SPR-9493
The failure of the conversion service is not fatal, but the check that
was in there (line 248) was inadequate to detect the cases that could
already be handled by the default property editors. This code path
was also not tested anywhere in spring-beans tests until now.
Prior to this change, by-type lookups using DLBF#getBeanNamesForType
required traversal of all bean definitions within the bean factory
in order to inspect their bean class for assignability to the target
type. These operations are comparatively expensive and when there are a
large number of beans registered within the container coupled with a
large number of by-type lookups at runtime, the performance impact can
be severe. The test introduced here demonstrates such a scenario clearly.
This performance problem is likely to manifest in large Spring-based
applications using non-singleton beans, particularly request-scoped
beans that may be created and wired many thousands of times per second.
This commit introduces a simple ConcurrentHashMap-based caching strategy
for by-type lookups; container-wide assignability checks happen only
once on the first by-type lookup and are afterwards cached by type
with the values in the map being an array of all bean names assignable
to that type. This means that at runtime when creating and autowiring
non-singleton beans, the cost of by-type lookups is reduced to that of
ConcurrentHashMap#get.
Issue: SPR-6870
The following syntax is now supported
<beans profile="p1,!p2">
@Profile("p1", "!p2")
indicating that the <beans> element or annotated component should
be processed only if profile 'p1' is active or profile 'p2' is not
active.

Commit 096693c46fba6e09b346a498b7002abd4d6540a9 refactored and
deprecated TransactionAspectUtils, moving its #qualifiedBeanOfType
and related methods into BeanFactoryUtils. This created a package cycle
between beans.factory and beans.factory.annotation due to use of the
beans.factory.annotation.Qualifier annotation in these methods.
This commit breaks the package cycle by introducing
beans.factory.annotation.BeanFactoryAnnotationUtils and moving these
@Qualifier-related methods to it. It is intentionally similar in name
and style to the familiar BeanFactoryUtils class for purposes of
discoverability.
There are no backward-compatibilty concerns associated with this change
as the cycle was introduced, caught and now fixed before a release.
Issue: SPR-6847
TransactionAspectUtils contains a number of methods useful in
retrieving a bean by type+qualifier. These methods are functionally
general-purpose save for the hard coding of PlatformTransactionManager
class literals throughout.
This commit generifies these methods and moves them into
BeanFactoryUtils primarily in anticipation of their use by async method
execution interceptors and aspects when performing lookups for qualified
executor beans e.g. via @Async("qualifier").
The public API of TransactionAspectUtils remains backward compatible;
all methods within have been deprecated, and all calls to those methods
throughout the framework refactored to use the new BeanFactoryUtils
variants instead.
Previously, the <value> subelement of a map <entry> allowed one to
specify the type of a specific map entry value. This patch allows a
value-type attribute as well, such that instead of the following
syntax
<entry key="x-message-ttl">
<value type="java.lang.Long">100</value>
</entry>
<entry key="x-ha-policy" value="all" />
one can now use the more concise form
<entry key="x-message-ttl" value="100" value-type="java.lang.Long"/>
<entry key="x-ha-policy" value="all"/>
The new value-type attribute may be used at the <map> level as well,
indicating that all elements are of the same type.
Appropriate tests have been added exercising value-type at the <map> and
<entry> levels.
Issue: SPR-9249
This patch fixes several compiler warnings that do not point to code
problems. Two kinds of warnings are fixed. First in a lot of cases
@SuppressWarnings("unchecked") is used although there are no unchecked
casts happening. This seems to be a leftover from when the code base
was on Java 1.4, now that the code base was moved to Java 1.5 these are
no longer necessary. Secondly there some places where the raw types of
List and Class are used where there wildcard types (List<?> and
Class<?>) would work just as well without causing any raw type warnings.
These changes are beneficial particularly when working in Eclipse or
other IDEs because it reduces 'noise', helping to isolate actual
potential problems in the code.
The following changes have been made:
- remove @SuppressWarnings where no longer needed
- use wildcard types instead of raw types where possible
InjectionMetadata and LifecycleMetadata can end up having mostly empty
instance variables. In such cases memory usage can be improved a little
bit.
This patch addresses this in two ways:
- Creating a LinkedHashSet of the "right" size, the default capacity
is 16 but the exact capacity needed is known in advance.
- If the argument is empty then use Collections#emptySet which is a
constant so no additional memory is used. Since it's immutable there
is no need for the Collections#synchronizedSet wrapper.
Issue: SPR-9264
Prior to this change, AABPP#determineRequiredStatus never checked the
return value of ReflectionUtils#findMethod when searching for a
'#required' attribute. This call returns null for annotations such as
@Inject, @Value and @Resource, and subsequently causes a
NullPointerException to be thrown when ReflectionUtils#invokeMethod is
called. The NPE is caught immediately and #determineRequiredStatus
returns defaulting to true, but this this approach is inefficient. It
is also problematic for users who have set breakpoints on NPE -- they
end up debugging into Spring internals, which is a false positive.
This commit checks the return value of of ReflectionUtils#findMethod,
and in the case of null, eagerly returns true. There is no change to
external behavior, simply a more efficient and debugging-friendly
implementation.
Existing test cases already cover this change, given that it is purely
a refactoring.
Issue: SPR-9316
Before this change there were numerous javadoc warnings being reported
while building Spring framework API.
This commit resolves most of the javadoc warnings, reducing the total
number from 265 to 103.
Issue: SPR-9113
Copy spring-*-3.1.xsd => spring-*-3.2.xsd; this commit introduces no
substantive changes, but rather prepares for them by creating a clean
baseline. All internal references to 3.1 schemas (e.g. spring-tool) have
also been updated.
Each of these tests began failing during the Gradle build porting
process. None seem severe, many are likely due to classpath issues.
In the case of TestNG support, this needs to be added to the Gradle
build in order to execute these tests. See SPR-8116.txt
This renaming more intuitively expresses the relationship between
subprojects and the JAR artifacts they produce.
Tracking history across these renames is possible, but it requires
use of the --follow flag to `git log`, for example
$ git log spring-aop/src/main/java/org/springframework/aop/Advisor.java
will show history up until the renaming event, where
$ git log --follow spring-aop/src/main/java/org/springframework/aop/Advisor.java
will show history for all changes to the file, before and after the
renaming.
