Spring Framework 3.2 RC1 Released
The first release candidate toward Spring Framework 3.2 is now available from the SpringSource repository
See Juergen's blog post for complete details, but here are a few highlights from RC1:
- Inclusion of the formerly-standalone Spring MVC Test project, allowing for first-class testing of Spring MVC applications (stay tuned for Rossen's blog post on this later this week)
- Support for loading WebApplicationContexts in the TestContext framework (stay tuned for Sam's blog post on this later this week)
- Support for the HTTP PATCH method
- Support creation of custom injection annotations by allowing @Autowired and @Inject to be used as meta-annotations
- Overall, 42 bugs fixed, 8 new features and 40 improvements implemented
- ... and of course everything already included in the 3.2 M1 and M2 releases
As the release candidate name suggests, now is the time to take 3.2 for a spin in your dev and test environments if you haven't already been tracking the milestones. Let us know how it goes, thanks!
