Convert all docbook XML files to well-formed docbook 5 syntax:
- Include xsi:schemaLocation element for tools support
- Convert all id elements to xml:id
- Convert all ulink elements to link
- Simplify <lineannotation> mark-up
- Fix misplaced </section> tags
- Fix <interface> tags to <interfacename>
- Cleanup trailing whitespace and tabs
Issue: SPR-10032
Tiles 3 has modified packages and classes as well as additional
dependencies, notably "tiles-request-api", which is a request/response
abstraction independent of Servlet and JSP APIs.
In order to have both Tiles 2 and Tiles 3 integrations, the source for
the Tiles 3 integration is in a separate project spring-webmvc-tiles3.
The build process merges the compiled Tiles 3 integration classes into
the spring-webmvc module so in effect it contains both the Tiles 2 and
the Tiles 3 integrations.
This change originated as a pull request at spring-framework-issues:
https://github.com/SpringSource/spring-framework-issues/pull/30

Issue: SPR-8825
Jackson 2 uses completely new package names and new maven artifact ids.
This change adds Jackson 2 as an optional dependency and also provides
MappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter and MappingJackson2JsonView for use
with the new version.
The MVC namespace and the MVC Java config detect and use
MappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter if Jackson 2 is present.
Otherwise if Jackson 1.x is present,
then MappingJacksonHttpMessageConverter is used.

Problems
- Eliminate — in favor of —
— was causing 'no such entity' errors during docbook
processing; — produces the equivalent output.
- Fix column issues in appendices
column counts were set to 3, when they are in fact 4. This passed
under DocBook 4 and Spring Build for unknown reasons, but caused a
hard stop under DocBook 5 and the docbook-reference-plugin.
- Add jdbc callout section in docbook 5-friendly style
use <co/> tags as advertised in DocBook documentation.
- Set correct widths for PDF ref doc images
images were rendering larger than the PDF page; just set all to
width=400 and everything looks good.
Polish
- Update reference doc copyright to 2012
- Remove "work-in-progress" language from ref docs
- Update maven URLs to repo.springsource.org
- Update javadoc urls from 3.0.x/javadoc-api => current/api
- Replace hardcoded "3.1" with ${version} in ref doc
It was determined (through painful trial and error) that after the
upgrade to DocBook 5 and the gradle-docbook-reference plugin, that
<emphasis> elements embedded within <programlisting> elements causes
NullPointerExceptions during processing.
This change eliminates these <emphasis> elements to work around the
problem. This means a slight degradation in presentation for the
affected areas of the reference documentation. After some research,
it is not clear what other workarounds may be possible that leave
the text actually emphasized.
This change eliminates the spring-framework-reference subproject, moving
these sources into the root project's own src directory.
This makes sense because the reference docs span all submodules, and
also because api Javadoc is created at the root project level as well.
This means that both api and reference documentation output will now
reside in the root project's 'build' directory. This is more consistent
and easy to discover.
Since dynamic attributes were allowed in Spring 3, it raised the
possibility to specify a type attribute on a number of the form tags.
Where it makes sense (see below) that attribute is now rejected
and reversely where it makes sense it is accepted.
InputTag allows types other than "text" but rejects type="radio" or
type="checkbox" since there is a good reason for those to be used
only in conjunction with the appropriate form library tags.
Other HTML input tags such as PasswordTag, HiddenInputTag,
Checkbox(es)Tag and RadioBox(es)Tag check the dynamic attributes
and reject them if they contain a type attribute since.
* eliminated all usage of "the section entitled", because <xref> links already render including "the section called ". This was resulting in sentences like 'see also the section entitled the section called "@Autowired"'. This issue affected nearly all sections of the documentation, so went beyond just beans.xml
* fixed table overflow in the "Using filters to customize scanning" section (approx. p.90)
* fixed all code overflows in <programlisting/> elements
* corrected a couple minor syntax errors with SpEL examples (missing closing braces)
* added 'language="..."' element to <programlisting> elements where appropriate to enable syntax highlighting.
* normalized all code indention to four-space (some code listings were using one- and two-space)
* updated all code listings to use same-line opening braces.
* eliminated section regarding backward compatibility with Spring DTDs and singleton=true|false. This seems like cruft to me, and we shouldn't keep historical notes around forever.
* Added <note> regarding the new thread scope (SimpleThreadScope) to Section 3.5 Bean Scopes. Also updated the section on registering a custom Scope implementation to use the SimpleThreadScope as an example.
* updated the new-in-3.xml section to improve the @Configuration example
