-### MultiRelease Jar
-
-The `org.springframework.build.multiReleaseJar` plugin configures the project with MultiRelease JAR support.
-It creates a new SourceSet and dedicated tasks for each Java variant considered.
-This can be configured with the DSL, by setting a list of Java variants to configure:
-
-```groovy
-plugins {
-    id 'org.springframework.build.multiReleaseJar'
-}
-
-multiRelease {
-	releaseVersions 21, 24
-}
-```
-
-Note, Java classes will be compiled with the toolchain pre-configured by the project, assuming that its
-Java language version is equal or higher than all variants we consider. Each compilation task will only
-set the "-release" compilation option accordingly to produce the expected bytecode version.

 If you want to force the use of CGLIB proxying (for example, to proxy every method

 you can do so. However, you should consider the following issues:

 [[aot.hints.reflective]]
 === `@Reflective`
 
 {spring-framework-api}/aot/hint/annotation/Reflective.html[`@Reflective`] provides an idiomatic way to flag the need for reflection on an annotated element.
 For instance, `@EventListener` is meta-annotated with `@Reflective` since the underlying implementation invokes the annotated method using reflection.
 
-Out-of-the-box, only Spring beans are considered, but you can opt-in for scanning using
-{spring-framework-api}/context/annotation/ReflectiveScan.html[`@ReflectiveScan`]. In the
-example below, all types in the `com.example.app` package and its subpackages are
-considered:
-
-include-code::./MyConfiguration[]
-
-Scanning happens during AOT processing, and the types in the target packages do not need to have a class-level annotation to be considered.
-This performs a _deep scan_, and the presence of `@Reflective`, either directly or as a meta-annotation, is checked on types, fields, constructors, methods, and enclosed elements.
-
-By default, `@Reflective` registers an invocation hint for the annotated element.
-This can be tuned by specifying a custom `ReflectiveProcessor` implementation via the `@Reflective` annotation.
+By default, only Spring beans are considered, and an invocation hint is registered for the annotated element.
+This can be tuned by specifying a custom `ReflectiveProcessor` implementation via the
+`@Reflective` annotation.
 
 Library authors can reuse this annotation for their own purposes.
-An example of such customization is covered in the next section.
+If components other than Spring beans need to be processed, a `BeanFactoryInitializationAotProcessor` can detect the relevant types and use `ReflectiveRuntimeHintsRegistrar` to process them.
 
-[[aot.hints.register-reflection]]
-=== `@RegisterReflection`
 
-{spring-framework-api}/aot/hint/annotation/RegisterReflection.html[`@RegisterReflection`] is a specialization of `@Reflective` that provides a declarative way to register reflection for arbitrary types.
+[[aot.hints.register-reflection-for-binding]]
+=== `@RegisterReflectionForBinding`
 
-NOTE: As a specialization of `@Reflective`, `@RegisterReflection` is also detected if you are using `@ReflectiveScan`.
-
-In the following example, public constructors and public methods can be invoked via reflection on `AccountService`:
-
-include-code::./MyConfiguration[tag=snippet,indent=0]
-
-`@RegisterReflection` can be applied to any target type at the class level, but it can also be applied directly to a method to better indicate where the hints are actually required.
-
-`@RegisterReflection` can be used as a meta-annotation to support more specific needs.
-{spring-framework-api}/aot/hint/annotation/RegisterReflectionForBinding.html[`@RegisterReflectionForBinding`] is a composed annotation that is meta-annotated with `@RegisterReflection` and registers the need for serializing arbitrary types.
+{spring-framework-api}/aot/hint/annotation/RegisterReflectionForBinding.html[`@RegisterReflectionForBinding`] is a specialization of `@Reflective` that registers the need for serializing arbitrary types.
 A typical use case is the use of DTOs that the container cannot infer, such as using a web client within a method body.
 
-The following example registers `Order` for serialization.
-
-include-code::./OrderService[tag=snippet,indent=0]
-
-This registers hints for constructors, fields, properties, and record components of `Order`.
-Hints are also registered for types transitively used on properties and record components.
-In other words, if `Order` exposes others types, hints are registered for those as well.
-
-[[aot.hints.convention-based-conversion]]
-=== Runtime Hints for Convention-based Conversion
-
-Although the core container provides built-in support for automatic conversion of many
-common types (see xref:core/validation/convert.adoc[Spring Type Conversion]), some
-conversions are supported via a convention-based algorithm that relies on reflection.
-
-Specifically, if there is no explicit `Converter` registered with the `ConversionService`
-for a particular source &#8594; target type pair, the internal `ObjectToObjectConverter`
-will attempt to use conventions to convert a source object to a target type by delegating
-to a method on the source object or to a static factory method or constructor on the
-target type. Since this convention-based algorithm can be applied to arbitrary types at
-runtime, the core container is not able to infer the runtime hints necessary to support
-such reflection.
-
-If you encounter convention-based conversion issues within a native image resulting from
-lacking runtime hints, you can register the necessary hints programmatically. For
-example, if your application requires a conversion from `java.time.Instant` to
-`java.sql.Timestamp` and relies on `ObjectToObjectConverter` to invoke
-`java.sql.Timestamp.from(Instant)` using reflection, you could implement a custom
-`RuntimeHintsRegitrar` to support this use case within a native image, as demonstrated in
-the following example.
+`@RegisterReflectionForBinding` can be applied to any Spring bean at the class level, but it can also be applied directly to a method, field, or constructor to better indicate where the hints are actually required.
+The following example registers `Account` for serialization.

+As a further example for externalized configuration metadata, bean definitions can also

+Typically, such configuration live in a ".groovy" file with the structure shown in the
+following example:
