Some servlet containers (iPlanet) parse the Accept header and return
multiple values from request.getHeader("Accept"). The HttpHeaders
getAccept method has been updated to accommodate that hopefully
without causing any other issues.
The extra functionality is in effect only if we find only one
MediaType and there is more than one value for the 'Accept' header.

Previously UriComponentsBuilder used a regular expression for parsing
query name-value pairs where both name and value were expected to not
contain neither '&', not '='. The idea is that the presence of reserved
characters makes it impossible to guess correctly how to parse the
query string (e.g. a=b&c).
This change relaxes the constraint on query param values, allowing them
to contain '='. In effect '&' is the ultimate separator of name-value
pairs, and any '=' in values is ignored. For example "q=1USD=?EUR" is
interpreted as "q equals '1USD=?EUR'".

The ErrorsMethodArgumentResolver expects the preceding @ModelAttribute
in the controller method signature to be the last one added in the
model -- an assumption that can break if a model attribute is added
earlier (e.g. through a @ModelAttribute method) and more attributes
are added as well. This fix ensures when an @ModelAttribute is resolved
as a controller method argument it has the highest index in the model.

Prior to this commit spring-web's dependence on spring-aop was marked
optional, however spring-web's required dependence on spring-context
transitively forces a required dependence on spring-aop anyway.
This change marks spring-aop as a required dependency of spring-web,
which a) reflects the poms created by the 3.2 Gradle build and b) helps
solve dependency issues when using higher-level Spring projects such as
Spring Security.
Issue: SPR-9573
Previously, the spring-web pom still depended on the EBR-style
com.springsource artifactId for hessian.
It now depends on Maven Central-style com.caucho:hessian:3.2.1 naming.
Note that Hessian 3.2.1 acutally does not exist in Maven Central, but is
present in the SpringSource repository at http://repo.springsource.org.
In any case, the dependency is optional, so should not cause issues at
build time for applications dependent on spring-web.

An additional update (after the last commit) of the "includes" and
"isCompatibleWith" methods of MediaType to accomodate wildcards
in media types with a suffix.
Issue: SPR-9841
The "includes" and "isCompatibleWith" methods of MediaType take into
account media types with suffices (e.g. application/soap+xml) including
wildcards with suffices (e.g. application/*+xml). However before this
change, the isWildcardSubtype() method returned true only for subtype
"*". Now a media type such as application/*+xml is also recognized as
having a wildcard subtype.

Before this change the StringHttpMessageConverter used a fixed charset "ISO-8859-1" if the requested content type did not specify one. This change adds a defaultCharset field and a constructor to configure it in StringHttpMessageConverter.

Changes introduced in Spring 3.1 for Environment support inadvertently
established a cyclic dependency between the
org.springframework.web.context and
org.springframework.web.context.support packages, specifically through
web.context.ContextLoader's invocation of
web.context.support.WebApplicationContextUtils#initServletPropertySources.
This commit introduces ConfigurableWebEnvironment to break this cyclic
dependency. All web.context.ConfigurableWebApplicationContext types now
return web.context.ConfigurableWebEnvironment from their #getEnvironment
methods; web.context.support.StandardServletEnvironment now implements
ConfigurableWebEnvironment and makes the call to
web.context.support.WebApplicationContextUtils#initServletPropertySources
within its implementation of #initPropertySources. This means that
web.context.ContextLoader now invokes
web.context.ConfigurableWebEnvironment#initPropertySources instead of
web.context.support.WebApplicationContextUtils#initServletPropertySources
and thus the cycle is broken.

HttpStatus cannot be created with an unknown status code. If a server
returns a status code that's not in the HttpStatus enum values, an
IllegalArgumentException is raised. Rather than allowing it to

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.

Since the introduction of the AnnotationConfig(Web)ApplicationContext
types in Spring 3.0, it has been possible to specify a custom
bean name generation strategy via the #setBeanNameGenerator methods
available on each of these classes.
If specified, that BeanNameGenerator was delegated to the underlying
AnnotatedBeanDefinitionReader and ClassPathBeanDefinitionScanner. This
meant that any @Configuration classes registered or scanned directly
from the application context, e.g. via #register or #scan methods would
respect the custom name generation strategy as intended.
However, for @Configuration classes picked up via @Import or implicitly
registered due to being nested classes would not be aware of this
strategy, and would rather fall back to a hard-coded default
AnnotationBeanNameGenerator.
This change ensures consistent application of custom BeanNameGenerator
strategies in the following ways:
- Introduction of AnnotationConfigUtils#CONFIGURATION_BEAN_NAME_GENERATOR
singleton
If a custom BeanNameGenerator is specified via #setBeanNameGenerator
the AnnotationConfig* application contexts will, in addition to
delegating this object to the underlying reader and scanner, register
it as a singleton bean within the enclosing bean factory having the
constant name mentioned above.
ConfigurationClassPostProcessor now checks for the presence of this
singleton, falling back to a default AnnotationBeanNameGenerator if
not present. This singleton-based approach is necessary because it is
otherwise impossible to parameterize CCPP, given that it is
registered as a BeanDefinitionRegistryPostProcessor bean definition
in AnnotationConfigUtils#registerAnnotationConfigProcessors
- Introduction of ConfigurationClassPostProcessor#setBeanNameGenerator
As detailed in the Javadoc for this new method, this allows for
customizing the BeanNameGenerator via XML by dropping down to direct
registration of CCPP as a <bean> instead of using
<context:annotation-config> to enable @Configuration class
processing.
- Smarter defaulting for @ComponentScan#beanNameGenerator
Previously, @ComponentScan's #beanNameGenerator attribute had a
default value of AnnotationBeanNameGenerator. The value is now the
BeanNameGenerator interface itself, indicating that the scanner
dedicated to processing each @ComponentScan should fall back to an
inherited generator, i.e. the one originally specified against the
application context, or the original default provided by
ConfigurationClassPostProcessor. This means that name generation
strategies will be consistent with a single point of configuration,
but that individual @ComponentScan declarations may still customize
the strategy for the beans that are picked up by that particular
scanning.
Issue: SPR-9124
ServletServerHttpRequest now falls back on the contentType and the
the characterEncoding of the ServletRequest, if the headers of the
incoming request don't specify one. Similary ServletServerHttpResponse
sets the contentType and the characterEncoding of the ServletResponse
if not already set.
This allows using the CharacterEncodingFilter to set a character
encoding where the request doesn't specify one and have it be used
in HttpMessageConverter's.

Although the reference documentation listed the new @MVC support
classes and their benefits, it did not explicitly mention a few
use cases that are no longer supported. There is now a specific
section on the new support classes listing exactly what is not
supported.
Similary the @RequestMapping annotation never refered explicitly
to the existence of old and new support and never made it clear
exactly what the differences are.
Both have not been corrected.

Prior to this commit, StandardServletEnvironment's servlet context
PropertySource remained stubbed out until it the ServletContext became
available and could be replaced during the refresh() of its enclosing
WebApplicationContext. This behavior is acceptable in most cases.
However, if the user has declared an ApplicationContextInitializer that
attempts to access servlet context-params via the Environment API, this
result in a kind of 'false negative', i.e. the context-param key and
value are actually present in the ServletContext, but the PropertySource
representing servlet context params is still a stub at this point,
meaning that it returns an empty result in all cases.
With this change, WebApplicationContextUtils#initServletPropertySources
is invoked eagerly by the ContextLoader if any ACI classes have been
declared. This swaps out the servlet context property source stub for
the real thing just in time for ACIs to use it if necessary.
Extra guard logic has been added to #initServletPropertySources to
ensure idempotency -- once the stub has been replaced, the method
never attempts the replacement again, e.g. during the normal context
refresh() when this method will be called again.
Issue: SPR-8991
- Perform early check whether any ACI classes have been declared and

A list of "known" session attributes (listed in @SessionAttributes)
was gradually built as attributes get added to the model. In a
failover scenario that knowledge is lost causing session attributes
to be potentially re-initialized via @ModelAttribute methods.
With this change @SessionAttributes listed by name are immediately
added to he list of "known" session attributes thus this knowledge
is not lost after a failover. Attributes listed by type however
still must be discovered as they get added to the model.
