This commit improves the builder to provide the message factory upfront
rather than setting it after the WebServiceTemplate has been
instantiated.
By providing the factory upfront (if it is set), it prevents the
default strategy to be created first to be then erased by the custom
factory.
Closes gh-48615
Simplify HTTP client configuration properties by sharing common
settings for both blocking and reactive clients.
The `ClientHttpRequestFactorySettings` and `ClientHttpConnectorSettings`
have been merged to a single `HttpClientSettings` class. Properties
to configure common settings are available under:
`spring.http.clients`
Blocking and reactive settings have been moved to
`spring.http.clients.blocking` and `spring.http.clients.reactive`. With
currently only the factory/connector being configurable.
HTTP Service Client properties have also been rationalized under a
`spring.http.serviceclient.<group-name>`. Support for properties that
apply to all service clients and all Rest/Web Clients have been removed.
Support for `ApiVerionInserter` beans has also been removed in favor of
configuring the service group or builders directly.
Closes gh-47398
Refactor `PropertyMapper` so that it no longer calls adapter or
predicate methods by default when the source value is `null`. This
effectively makes all default calls the same as using
`alwaysWhenNotNull` in the previous generation of the code.
For the limited times when you do need to deal with `null` values, the
new `always()` method can be used.
For example,
map.from(source::method).to(destination::method);
Will not call `destination.method(...)` if `source.method()` returns
`null`.
Where as:
map.from(source::method).always().to(destination::method);
Will call `destination.method(null)` if `source.method()` returns
`null`.
This update provides clearer semantics for the API and allows for better
JSpecify nullability annotations. It has also simplified much of our
existing property mapper code.
Closes gh-47024
