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.

Consolidating internal bean name and aspect class name constats within
AnnotationConfigUtils to allow access from both the context.config
and context.annotation packages without creating a relationship between
the two of them (they are unrelated leaf nodes in the packaging
currently).
The .transaction module does not have a similar utils class and already
has a relationship from transaction.config -> transaction.annotation,
so placing the constants in .annotation.TransactionManagementCapability
to be referenced by .config.AnnotationDrivenBeanDefinitionParser

@Configuration classes may implement ImportAware in order to be injected
with the AnnotationMetadata of their @Import'ing class.
Includes the introduction of a new PriorityOrdered
ImportAwareBeanPostProcessor that handles injection of the
importing class metadata.

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.

Feature-related support such as @Feature, @FeatureConfiguration,
and FeatureSpecification types will be replaced by framework-provided
@Configuration classes and convenience annotations such as
@ComponentScan (already exists), @EnableAsync, @EnableScheduling,
@EnableTransactionManagement and others.

Previously errors were being raised when trying to inject @Value
annotated paramaters such as:
@Feature
public FeatureSpec feature(@Value("#{environment['foo']}") String foo) {
return new FeatureSpec(foo);
}
This is not so much because dependency resolution of @Value-annotated
types was failing, but rather because the 'early bean reference'
proxying mechanism was throwing an exception if any final type was
detected as a parameter. This is of course because final types are
non-subclassable by CGLIB. On review, however, it's obvious that
certain final types must be allowed for injection. @Value injection
is an obvious one, but the rarer case of a Spring bean of type String
or int is another.
The explicit guard against final types as parameters to @Feature methods
has been removed. Final types are still checked for, however, and if
found, no proxing is attempted. The dependency is immediately resolved
against the current BeanFactory and injected into the @Feature method.
This means that @Value injection, @Qualifier injection, etc all work
as expected, but does mean that premature bean instantiation may occur
if a user unwittingly injects non-String, non-primitive final bean types
as @Feature method parameters.

CGLIB-enhanced @Configuration subclasses now implement DisposableBean
such that Enhancer.registerStaticCallbacks(subclass, null) is invoked
on container shutdown. This ensures that garbage collection can work
properly and avoids memory consumption issues for applications that
create and destroy many application contexts within the same JVM.

Prove that injection of special container types such as ResourceLoader,
BeanFactory, etc already works with the current implementation of
@Feature methods.

Introduce FeatureSpecification interface and implementations
FeatureSpecification objects decouple the configuration of
spring container features from the concern of parsing XML
namespaces, allowing for reuse in code-based configuration
(see @Feature* annotations below).
* ComponentScanSpec
* TxAnnotationDriven
* MvcAnnotationDriven
* MvcDefaultServletHandler
* MvcResources
* MvcViewControllers
Refactor associated BeanDefinitionParsers to delegate to new impls above
The following BeanDefinitionParser implementations now deal only
with the concern of XML parsing. Validation is handled by their
corresponding FeatureSpecification object. Bean definition creation
and registration is handled by their corresponding
FeatureSpecificationExecutor type.
* ComponentScanBeanDefinitionParser
* AnnotationDrivenBeanDefinitionParser (tx)
* AnnotationDrivenBeanDefinitionParser (mvc)
* DefaultServletHandlerBeanDefinitionParser
* ResourcesBeanDefinitionParser
* ViewControllerBeanDefinitionParser
Update AopNamespaceUtils to decouple from XML (DOM API)
Methods necessary for executing TxAnnotationDriven specification
(and eventually, the AspectJAutoProxy specification) have been
added that accept boolean arguments for whether to proxy
target classes and whether to expose the proxy via threadlocal.
Methods that accepted and introspected DOM Element objects still
exist but have been deprecated.
Introduce @FeatureConfiguration classes and @Feature methods
Allow for creation and configuration of FeatureSpecification objects
at the user level. A companion for @Configuration classes allowing
for completely code-driven configuration of the Spring container.
See changes in ConfigurationClassPostProcessor for implementation
details.
See Feature*Tests for usage examples.
FeatureTestSuite in .integration-tests is a JUnit test suite designed
to aggregate all BDP and Feature* related tests for a convenient way
to confirm that Feature-related changes don't break anything.
Uncomment this test and execute from Eclipse / IDEA. Due to classpath
issues, this cannot be compiled by Ant/Ivy at the command line.
Introduce @FeatureAnnotation meta-annotation and @ComponentScan impl
@FeatureAnnotation provides an alternate mechanism for creating
and executing FeatureSpecification objects. See @ComponentScan
and its corresponding ComponentScanAnnotationParser implementation
for details. See ComponentScanAnnotationIntegrationTests for usage
examples
Introduce Default[Formatting]ConversionService implementations
Allows for convenient instantiation of ConversionService objects
containing defaults appropriate for most environments. Replaces
similar support originally in ConversionServiceFactory (which is now
deprecated). This change was justified by the need to avoid use
of FactoryBeans in @Configuration classes (such as
FormattingConversionServiceFactoryBean). It is strongly preferred
that users simply instantiate and configure the objects that underlie
our FactoryBeans. In the case of the ConversionService types, the
easiest way to do this is to create Default* subtypes. This also
follows convention with the rest of the framework.
Minor updates to util classes
All in service of changes above. See diffs for self-explanatory
details.
* BeanUtils
* ObjectUtils
* ReflectionUtils

PropertySourcesPlaceholderConfigurer accommodates recent changes in
Environment and PropertySource APIs, e.g. no longer assuming enumerability
of property names.
PSPC reuses as much functionality as possible from
AbstractPropertyPlaceholderConfigurer, but overrides
postProcessBeanFactory() and defines its own variation on
processProperties() in order to accept a PropertyResolver rather than
a PropertySource.
AbstractPropertyPlaceholderConfigurer introduces doProcessProperties()
method to encapsulate that which is actually common, such as the
visiting of each bean definition once a StringValueResolver has been
created in the subclass.

* Environment now extends PropertyResolver
* Environment no longer exposes resolver and sources
* PropertySource is String,Object instead of String,String
* PropertySource no longer assumes enumerability of property names
* Introduced EnumerablePropertySource for those that do have enumerable property names
