- Cache interceptor internals now operate on collections of
<? extends Cache> instead of <Cache>.
- Deleted unused imports.
- Deleted dead code.
- Suppressed warnings for resource leaks related to not closing
ApplicationContexts in tests.
- Suppressed further non-issue warnings in tests.
@Bean method metadata is always being picked from the most concrete subclass; @Bean method overloads are allowed within the same config class as well; and @Bean overrides and overloads work with 'allowBeanDefinitionOverriding'=false now.

This new get variant not only allows for generically specifying the required value type; it also skips the ValueWrapper that the standard get method returns. Note that it is not possible to differentiate between non-existing cache entries and cached null values that way; for that purpose, the standard get variant needs to be used.
Issue: SPR-11061
Since @Bean methods are never used with externally specified constructor argument values but rather just with autowiring, the non-lenient constructor resolution mode is appropriate in case of an overloaded @Bean method, not performing any type difference weight checks. This change includes a refinement of Spring's existing non-lenient constructor resolution (which needs to be explicitly turned on and is therefore not well tested), narrowing the conditions for the ambiguity check (only in case of the same number of arguments and not for overridden methods).
Issue: SPR-10988
Including ScriptEvaluator implementations for JSR-223, Groovy and BeanShell. BeanShell consistently receives the bean ClassLoader now. Also revised ScriptFactory and its implementations for varargs.
Issue: SPR-11007
Introduce base class AbstractMethodMessageHandler for
HandlerMethod-based message handling.
Add MessageCondition interface for mapping conditions to messages
with support for combining type- and method-level annotation
conditions, the ability to match conditions to messages, and also
comparing matches to select the best match.
Issue: SPR-11024
Support repeatable @PropertySource annotations in Java 8 and add
@PropertySources container annotation for Java 6/7. Also add an
ignoreResourceNotFound attribute to @PropertySource allowing missing
property resources to be silently ignored.
This commit also introduces some generally useful methods to
AnnotationUtils for working with @Repeatable annotations.
Issue: SPR-8371
Ensure that property source locations are processed in the same order
regardless if the 'name' attribute is set or not.
Prior to this commit multiple locations from a `@PropertySource` with
a name were added to a `CompositePropertySource` in such a way that
the first location would take precedence. This has now been reversed
for consistence with unnamed `@PropertySource`s
Issue: SPR-10820
Update `AbstractApplicationEventMulticaster` to support `EventObjects`
with a null source (which can happen if they have been serialized).
Issue: SPR-10945
Includes revisions of MethodParameter and DependencyDescriptor (in particular towards a reference to the containing class). Also refines several ResolvableType method signatures.
Issue: SPR-9965
Update `CacheAspectSupport` to expand any var-arg parameters before
calling `KeyGenerator` implementations. Prior to this commit var-args
would be passed to `KeyGenerator` implementations as a nested array,
often causing the same key to be generated regardless of the arguments.
Issue: SPR-10870
Extended DefaultAopProxyFactory to create Objenesis based proxies if the
library is on the classpath. This allows classes without a default
constructor being CGLib proxied. We're now falling back to original CGLib
based behavior in case the proxy creation using Objenesis fails.
Objenesis 2.0 is now inlined into spring-core to avoid interfering with
other Objenesis versions on the classpath.
Issue: SPR-10594
Also, DefaultListableBeanFactory logs a warning when overriding an application definition with a framework-generated definition now, which is expected to be an accident.
Issue: SPR-10607
We're using the same subtle PriorityOrdered/Ordered/non-ordered separation as for regular BeanFactoryPostProcessors and BeanPostProcessors now. Additionally, we're re-detecting BeanDefinitionRegistryPostProcessor bean names after every invocation phase, up until no further ones appear.
Issue: SPR-10630
This turned into a rather huge affair since it led to the introduction of a new AutowireCandidateResolver implementation in the spring-context module. That ACR impl is now being set through AnnotationConfigUtils; GenericApplicationContext and co do not set a default QualifierAnnotationAutowireCandidateResolver anymore (which has always been a smell anyway). At the same time, dependency ordering has moved from AutowiredAnnotationBeanPostProcessor to DefaultListableBeanFactory itself through a "dependencyComparator" strategy, applying to constructor dependencies and lazy resolution proxies as well.
Issue: SPR-10353
Fix @Condition evaluation to also consider super classes for both
@Configuration classes and regular @Components. This change allows
@Conditional annotations to be inherited and restores the previous
behavior of @Profile.
Issue: SPR-10840
Also fixing an old XmlBeanFactory test that relies on "ref local" which is gone in the 4.0 xsd now, redeclaring the affected file to an older xsd version.
