The following commit in 3.2.3 had a side effect on CNVR:
https://github.com/SpringSource/spring-framework/commit/aaded7e30b06cc70a354856a2288acd04045b673
It appears that CNVR doesn't treat a request for "*/*" differently
from a request that does not request content types. Both should be
interpreted as "any content type is acceptable". This fix ensures
that CNVR treats these two cases the same way.
Issue: SPR-10683
This change involves a modification of the "writeContent" template method to include the "jsonPrefix" String instead of the "prefixJson" boolean flag. Since said template method has only been introduced in 3.2.2, this change should hopefully not be a problem.
Issue: SPR-10567
Commit 5b1165 was an attempt to leave semicolon content in the URL path
while ignoring it for request mapping purposes. However, it becomes
quite difficult to manage and semicolon content should not always be
ignored (sometimes a semicolon is used as a separator of multiple items
in a path segment, rather than for matrix variables).
This change effectively reverts back to the original approach in 3.2
where a flag on AbstractHandlerMapping can be used to have semicolon
content removed or kept. If kept, path segments with matrix variables
must be represented with a path segment.
The main difference is that by default it is removed everywhere
including the MVC namespace and Java config.

A recent change in FormTag to prepend the context and servlet paths if
not present, causes issues when used in portlet applications.
This change introduces a servletRelativeAction form tag attribute that
must be used for the context and servlet paths to be prepended.

@InitBinder and @ModelAttribute methods in @ControllerAdvice classes
are now invoked first, allowing any such methods in the @Controller
class to override them.
Issue: SPR-10419
Change FrameworkServlet so that it can also be used as a bean within an
existing ApplicationContext. Primarily added to support use with
embedded servlet containers where Spring bootstraps the servlet
container, rather than the servlet container bootstrapping Spring.
Issue: SPR-10381
Use LinkedHashMaps/Sets wherever exposed to users, and code tests defensively in terms of expected Map/Set ordering. Otherwise, there'll be runtime order differences between JDK 7 and JDK 8 due to internal HashMap/Set implementation differences.

Update ResourcesBeanDefinitionParser to use ensure that location
attribute values remain in the order that they are specified. The
order was inadvertently changed in commit 3838d159f3 due to the use
of StringUtils.commaDelimitedListToSet which sorts items.
Issue: SPR-10355
In Spring 3.2 a fix was implemented for all Spring Freemarker form
macros so that generated form input fields have valid bracketless IDs.
In the fix a regression was introduced manifesting in formCheckbox
macro no longer generating appropriate names for checkbox and hidden
input field.
This change fixes mentioned regression issue.
Issue: SPR-8732
Refactor FrameworkServlet.doOptions() to capture the "Allow" header
by using a HttpServletResponseWrapper.
Prior to this commit the HttpServletResponse.getHeader() method was
used which is only available in Servlet 3.0 environments.
Issue: SPR-10341
Before this change the presence of path params (e.g. "/foo;q=1/bar")
expected the request mapping to contain a URI variable in the place of
semicolon content (e.g. either "/{foo}/bar" or "/{foo};{fooParams}").
The change ensures path params are ignored in @RequestMapping patterns
so that "/foo/bar" matches to "/foo;q=1/bar" as well as
"/foo;q=1;p=2/bar".
Along with this change, the RequestMappingHandlerMapping no longer
defaults to having semicolon content removed from the URL, which means
@MatrixVariable is supported by default without the need for any
further configuration.
Issue: SPR-10234
ConfigurableWebEnvironment was introduced in 3.2.0.M1 with SPR-9439 in
order to break a cyclic dependency. At the same time, certain signatures
such as AbstractRefreshableWebApplicationContext#getEnviroment and
GenericWebApplicationContext#getEnvironment were updated to take
advantage of covariant return types and return this newer, more narrow
type and providing cast-free calls to ConfigurableWebEnvironment methods
where necessary. Similar changes were made to HttpServletBean in
3.2.0.M2 with SPR-9763.
Narrowing #getEnvironment signatures in this fashion required enforcing
at the #setEnvironment level that any Environment instance provided
(explicitly or via the EnvironmentAware callback) must be an instance of
ConfigurableWebEnvironment. This is a reasonable assertion in typical
web application scenarios, but as SPR-10138 demonstrates, there are
valid use cases in which one may want or need to inject a non-web
ConfigurableEnvironment variant, e.g. during automated unit/integration
testing.
On review, it was never strictly necessary to narrow #getEnvironment
signatures, although doing so did provided convenience and type safety.
In order to maintain as flexible and backward-compatible an arrangement
as possible, this commit relaxes these #getEnvironment signatures back
to their original, pre-3.2 state. Namely, they now return
ConfigurableEnvironment as opposed to ConfigurableWebEnvironment, and in
accordance, all instanceof assertions have been removed or relaxed to
ensure that injected Environment instances are of type
ConfigurableEnvironment.
These changes have been verified against David Winterfeldt's Spring by
Example spring-rest-services project, as described at SPR-10138.
