Dear Spring Community,

I am pleased to announce that Spring Modules (SM) 0.4 has been released. Downloads | Docs (Html , PDF) | JavaDocs

Released less then 1 month after 0.3, the new version contains the following notable features:
  • Validation Module - graduated from sandbox. It has gone through some major changes and several long standing bugs have been fixed. Reference documentation was also added.
  • JavaSpaces Module - a new module that adds Spring-style support (like template, callback and transaction manager) for JavaSpaces/Jini environments. Besides the generic API support, it contains a dedicated subpackage for GigaSpaces JavaSpaces implementation. The module is fully documented.
  • jBPM Module - has been documented.

See our changelog for more information.

The full roadmap can be found at:

The next version (0.5) is scheduled for July and will continue to add new features to the existing modules as well as aligning with Spring 2.0.

We are still looking to recruit more developers to work on more modules and any feedback on new or existing features will be much appreciated.

Cheers!
