This commit reinstates support for the legacy JSR-250
@javax.annotation.ManagedBean and JSR-330 @javax.inject.Named
annotations with regard to component name lookups and component
scanning.
Closes gh-31090
Spring Framework 6.0 GA introduced a regression in the component index
support for Jakarta annotations such as @Named and @ManagedBean.
Prior to this commit, @Named and @ManagedBean components were
registered in the component index at build time; however, component
scanning failed to find those component at run time.
This commit updates ClassPathScanningCandidateComponentProvider so that
`jakarta.*` annotation types are once again supported for component
scanning via the component index at run time.
Closes gh-29641
Spring Framework 5.0 introduced a regression in ASM-based annotation
processing. Specifically, nested annotations were no longer supported,
and component scanning resulted in an exception if a candidate
component was annotated with an annotation that contained nested
annotations.
This commit fixes this regression by introducing special handling in
AnnotationTypeMapping that supports extracting values from objects of
type TypeMappedAnnotation when necessary.
Closes gh-24375
Update ASM based metadata readers so that only RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME
annotations are exposed. This aligned behavior with the reflection based
implementation.
Closes gh-22886
This commit adds a "spring-context-indexer" module that can be added to
any project in order to generate an index of candidate components defined
in the project.
`CandidateComponentsIndexer` is a standard annotation processor that
looks for source files with target annotations (typically `@Component`)
and references them in a `META-INF/spring.components` generated file.
Each entry in the index is the fully qualified name of a candidate
component and the comma-separated list of stereotypes that apply to that
candidate. A typical example of a stereotype is `@Component`. If a
project has a `com.example.FooService` annotated with `@Component` the
following `META-INF/spring.components` file is generated at compile time:
```
com.example.FooService=org.springframework.stereotype.Component
```
A new `@Indexed` annotation can be added on any annotation to instructs
the scanner to include a source file that contains that annotation. For
instance, `@Component` is meta-annotated with `@Indexed` now and adding
`@Indexed` to more annotation types will transparently improve the index
with additional information. This also works for interaces or parent
classes: adding `@Indexed` on a `Repository` base interface means that
the indexed can be queried for its implementation by using the fully
qualified name of the `Repository` interface.
The indexer also adds any class or interface that has a type-level
annotation from the `javax` package. This includes obviously JPA
(`@Entity` and related) but also CDI (`@Named`, `@ManagedBean`) and
servlet annotations (i.e. `@WebFilter`). These are meant to handle
cases where a component needs to identify candidates and use classpath
scanning currently.
If a `package-info.java` file exists, the package is registered using
a "package-info" stereotype.
Such files can later be reused by the `ApplicationContext` to avoid
using component scan. A global `CandidateComponentsIndex` can be easily
loaded from the current classpath using `CandidateComponentsIndexLoader`.
The core framework uses such infrastructure in two areas: to retrieve
the candidate `@Component`s and to build a default `PersistenceUnitInfo`.
Rather than scanning the classpath and using ASM to identify candidates,
the index is used if present.
As long as the include filters refer to an annotation that is directly
annotated with `@Indexed` or an assignable type that is directly
annotated with `@Indexed`, the index can be used since a dedicated entry
wil be present for that type. If any other unsupported include filter is
specified, we fallback on classpath scanning.
In case the index is incomplete or cannot be used, The
`spring.index.ignore` system property can be set to `true` or,
alternatively, in a "spring.properties" at the root of the classpath.
Issue: SPR-11890
Prior to this change, @ComponentScan required the declaration of
exactly one of the #value, #basePackage or #basePackageClasses
attributes in order to determine which package(s) to scan.
This commit introduces support for base package inference, relaxing the
above requirement and falling back to scanning the package in which the
@ComponentScan-annotated class is declared.
Issue: SPR-9586
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.
