Provides a convenient mechanism for activating an additional profile
while preserving those that are already active, as opposed to
calling #setActiveProfiles with the contents of #getActiveProfiles plus
the new profile.

For consistency with all other constants representing default

Users may now work with command line arguments as a source of
properties for use with the PropertySource and Environment APIs.
An implementation based on the jopt library and a "simple"
implementation requiring no external libraries are are provided
out-of-the box.
See Javadoc for CommandLinePropertySource, JOptCommandLinePropertySource
and SimpleCommandLinePropertySource for details.

Prior to this change, the Property class introduced in 3.1 M2 validated
read/write property method pairs based on whether their parameter/return
types were equal to one another. This precluded the valid possibility
of read method that returns a subtype of the write method's parameter
type, and represented a regression against 3.1 M1 and earlier versions.
The implementation now uses isAssignableFrom rather than a straight
equals check against the types.

Attempt to access and modify the system environment works on OS X /
Linux but not under Windows. Does not represent any real failure for
production code - the need to modify the system environment is a
testing concern only, and one we can probably live without, considering
the losing battle necessary to make such a hack cross-platform.

ClassMetadata implementations can now introspect their member (nested)
classes. This will allow for automatic detection of nested
@Configuration types in SPR-8186.

AbstractEnvironment and subclasses now register a reserved default
profile named literally 'default' such that with no action on the part
of the user, beans defined against the 'default' profile will be
registered - if no other profiles are explicitly activated.
For example, given the following three files a.xml, b.xml and c.xml:
a.xml
-----
<beans> <!-- no 'profile' attribute -->
<bean id="a" class="com.acme.A"/>
</beans>
b.xml
-----
<beans profile="default">
<bean id="b" class="com.acme.B"/>
</beans>
c.xml
-----
<beans profile="custom">
<bean id="c" class="com.acme.C"/>
</beans>
bootstrapping all of the files in a Spring ApplicationContext as
follows will result in beans 'a' and 'b', but not 'c' being registered:
ApplicationContext ctx = new GenericXmlApplicationContext();
ctx.load("a.xml");
ctx.load("b.xml");
ctx.load("c.xml");
ctx.refresh();
ctx.containsBean("a"); // true
ctx.containsBean("b"); // true
ctx.containsBean("c"); // false
whereas activating the 'custom' profile will result in beans 'a' and
'c', but not 'b' being registered:
ApplicationContext ctx = new GenericXmlApplicationContext();
ctx.load("a.xml");
ctx.load("b.xml");
ctx.load("c.xml");
ctx.getEnvironment().setActiveProfiles("custom");
ctx.refresh();
ctx.containsBean("a"); // true
ctx.containsBean("b"); // false
ctx.containsBean("c"); // true
that is, once the 'custom' profile is activated, beans defined against
the the reserved default profile are no longer registered. Beans not
defined against any profile ('a') are always registered regardless of
which profiles are active, and of course beans registered
against specific active profiles ('c') are registered.
The reserved default profile is, in practice, just another 'default
profile', as might be added through calling env.setDefaultProfiles() or
via the 'spring.profiles.default' property. The only difference is that
the reserved default is added automatically by AbstractEnvironment
implementations. As such, any call to setDefaultProfiles() or value set
for the 'spring.profiles.default' will override the reserved default
profile. If a user wishes to add their own default profile while
keeping the reserved default profile as well, it will need to be
explicitly redeclared, e.g.:
env.addDefaultProfiles("my-default-profile", "default")
The reserved default profile(s) are determined by the value returned
from AbstractEnvironment#getReservedDefaultProfiles(). This protected
method may be overridden by subclasses in order to customize the
set of reserved default profiles.

Allows convenient creation of a Properties-based PropertySource from a
Spring Resource object or resource location string such as
"classpath:com/myco/app.properties" or "file:/path/to/file.properties"
Issue: SPR-8328
Users may now call #setRequiredProperties(String...) against the
Environment (via its ConfigurablePropertyResolver interface) in order
to indicate which properties must be present.
Environment#validateRequiredProperties() is invoked by
AbstractApplicationContext during the refresh() lifecycle to perform
the actual check and a MissingRequiredPropertiesException is thrown
if the precondition is not satisfied.
Issue: SPR-8323
This change is in support of certain polymorphism cases in
@Configuration class inheritance hierarchies. Consider the following
scenario:
@Configuration
public abstract class AbstractConfig {
public abstract Object bean();
}
@Configuration
public class ConcreteConfig {
@Override@Bean
public BeanPostProcessor bean() { ... }
}
ConcreteConfig overrides AbstractConfig's #bean() method with a
covariant return type, in this case returning an object of type
BeanPostProcessor. It is critically important that the container
is able to detect the return type of ConcreteConfig#bean() in order
to instantiate the BPP at the right point in the lifecycle.
Prior to this change, the container could not do this.
AbstractAutowireCapableBeanFactory#getTypeForFactoryMethod called
ReflectionUtils#getAllDeclaredMethods, which returned Method objects
for both the Object and BeanPostProcessor signatures of the #bean()
method. This confused the implementation sufficiently as not to
choose a type for the factory method at all. This means that the
BPP never gets detected as a BPP.
The new method being introduced here, #getUniqueDeclaredMethods, takes
covariant return types into account, and filters out duplicates,
favoring the most specific / narrow return type.
Additionally, it filters out any CGLIB 'rewritten' methods, which
is important in the case of @Configuration classes, which are
enhanced by CGLIB. See the implementation for further details.
Includes the introduction of AnnotationUtils#findAllAnnotationAttributes
to support iterating through all annotations declared on a given type
and interrogating each for the presence of a meta-annotation. See tests
for details.
