Replace reference to aspectjrt.jar with aspectjweaver.jar since
aspectjrt is a subset of aspectjweaver and the full jar is required
by Spring.

Update reference manual with details of Java configuration @Enable*
annotations. Examples of Java style @Configuration is provided
when appropriate alongside existing XML samples.
Several existing @Configuration samples have been changed to placing
the @Enable annotation below the @Configuration annotation.
This has been done to provide consistency with existing Javadoc.

Tiles 3 has modified packages and classes as well as additional
dependencies, notably "tiles-request-api", which is a request/response
abstraction independent of Servlet and JSP APIs.
In order to have both Tiles 2 and Tiles 3 integrations, the source for
the Tiles 3 integration is in a separate project spring-webmvc-tiles3.
The build process merges the compiled Tiles 3 integration classes into
the spring-webmvc module so in effect it contains both the Tiles 2 and
the Tiles 3 integrations.
This change originated as a pull request at spring-framework-issues:
https://github.com/SpringSource/spring-framework-issues/pull/30
And was additionally updated:

This commit increases the sleep time in
ScheduledAndTransactionalAnnotationIntegrationTests with the hope of
improving the robustness of the test suite on the CI build server.
This is more specific exception raised instead of RestClientException
when the raw HTTP status code received from the server is not one of
the HttpStatus enum values.

The MVC namespace and the MVC Java config now allow configuring
CallableProcessingInterceptor and DeferredResultProcessingInterceptor
instances.

Moving @EnableMBeanExport and its MBeanExportConfiguration
@Configuration class into context.annotation caused a side effect with
ComponentScanningWithLTWTests, which component scans context.annotation
in order to test LTW behavior. Picking up MBeanExportConfiguration
without proper MBean configuration resulted in a NullPointerException
during test execution.
This commit simply filters out all @Configuration classes from the LTW
test's component-scanning directive.

Before this change View implementations set the response content type
to the fixed value they were configured with.
This change makes it possible to configure a View implementation with
a more general media type, e.g. "application/*+xml", and then set the
response type to the more specific requested media type, e.g.
"application/vnd.example-v1+xml".

Class#getDeclaredMembers returns arbitrary results under JDK7. This
results in non-deterministic execution of JUnit test methods, often
revealing unintended dependencies between methods that rely on a
specific order to succeed.
JUnit 4.11 contains support for predictable test ordering [1], but at
the time of this commit, JUnit 4.11 has not yet been released.
Therefore we are testing against a snapshot version [2], which has been
uploaded to repo.springsource.org [3] for easy access. Note that this
artifact may be removed when JUnit 4.11 goes GA.
- Care has been taken to ensure that spring-test's compile-time
dependency on JUnit remains at 4.10. This means that the spring-test
pom.xml will continue to have an optional <dependency> on JUnit
4.10, instead of the 4.11 snapshot.
- For reasons not fully understood, the upgrade to the 4.11 snapshot
of junit-dep caused NoSuchMethodErrors around certain Hamcrest
types, particularly CoreMatchers and Matchers. import statements
have been updated accordingly throughout affected test cases.
- Runtime errors also occurred around uses of JUnit @Rule and
ExpectedException. These have been reverted to use simpler
mechanisms like @Test(expected) in the meantime.
- Some test methods with order-based dependencies on one another have
been renamed in order to fall in line with JUnit 4.11's new method
ordering (as opposed to actually fixing the inter-test
dependencies). In other areas, the fix was as simple as adding a
tearDown method and cleaning up state.
- For no apparent reason, the timeout in AspectJAutoProxyCreatorTests'
testAspectsAndAdvisorNotAppliedToPrototypeIsFastEnough method begins
to be exceeded. Prior to this commit the timeout value was 3000 ms;
on the CI server under Linux/JDK6 and JDK7, the test begins taking
anywhere from 3500-5500 ms with this commit. It is presumed that
this is an incidental artifact of the upgrade to JUnit 4.11. In any
case, there are no changes to src/main in this commit, so this
should not actually represent a performance risk for Spring
Framework users. The timeout has been increased to 6000 ms to
accommodate this situation.

The AbstractDispatcherServletInitializer now provides support for
the registration of filters to be mapped to the DispatcherServlet.
It also sets the asyncSupported flag by default on the
DispatcherServlet and all registered filters.
Issue: SPR-9696
A new @MatrixVariable annotation allows injecting matrix variables
into @RequestMapping methods. The matrix variables may appear in any
path segment and should be wrapped in a URI template for request
mapping purposes to ensure request matching is not affected by the
order or the presence/absence of such variables. The @MatrixVariable
annotation has an optional "pathVar" attribute that can be used to
refer to the URI template where a matrix variable is located.
Previously, ";" (semicolon) delimited content was removed from the
path used for request mapping purposes. To preserve backwards
compatibility that continues to be the case (except for the MVC
namespace and Java config) and may be changed by setting the
"removeSemicolonContent" property of RequestMappingHandlerMapping to
"false". Applications using the MVC namespace and Java config do not
need to do anything further to extract and use matrix variables.

Rename ExceptionHandlerSupport to ResponseEntityExceptionHandler and
emphasize the contrast to DefaultHandlerExceptionResovler -- i.e.
one returns a ResponseEntity and relies on message converters while
the other returns a ModelAndView and relies on view resolution.
Issue: SPR-9290
An @RequestBody or an @RequestPart argument can now be followed by an
Errors/BindingResult argument making it possible to handle validation
errors (as a result of an @Valid annotation) locally within the
@RequestMapping method.
Issue: SPR-7114
The new class is functionally equivalent to the
DefaultHandlerExceptionResolver (i.e. it translates Spring MVC
exceptions to various status codes) but uses an @ExceptionHandler
returning a ResponseEntity<Object>, which means it can be customized to
write error content to the body of the response.

Starting with Spring 3.1 applications can specify
contextInitializerClasses via context-param and init-param in web.xml;
however, there is currently no way to have such initializers invoked in
integration testing scenarios without writing a custom
SmartContextLoader. For comprehensive integration testing it should
therefore be possible to re-use ApplicationContextInitializers in the
Spring TestContext Framework as well.
This commit makes this possible at the @ContextConfiguration level by
allowing an array of ACI types to be specified, and the out-of-the-box
SmartContextLoader implementations invoke the declared initializers at
the appropriate time.
- Added initializers and inheritInitializers attributes to
@ContextConfiguration.
- Introduced support for ApplicationContextInitializers in
ContextConfigurationAttributes, MergedContextConfiguration, and
ContextLoaderUtils.
- MergedContextConfiguration stores context initializer classes as a
Set and incorporates them into the implementations of hashCode() and
equals() for proper context caching.
- ApplicationContextInitializers are invoked in the new
prepareContext(GenericApplicationContext, MergedContextConfiguration)
method in AbstractGenericContextLoader, and ordering declared via the
Ordered interface and @Order annotation is honored.
- Updated DelegatingSmartContextLoader to support initializers.
Specifically, a test class may optionally declare neither XML
configuration files nor annotated classes and instead declare only
application context initializers. In such cases, an attempt will
still be made to detect defaults, but their absence will not result
an an exception.
- Documented support for application context initializers in Javadoc
and in the testing chapter of the reference manual.
Issue: SPR-9011
Classes with this annotation can contain @ExceptionHandler,
@InitBinder, and @ModelAttribute methods that apply to all controllers.
The new annotation is also a component annotation allowing
implementations to be discovered through component scanning.

Prior to this change, the repackaged spring-asm and spring-cglib jars
were being included wholesale in the spring-core jar, whereas the
intention was to include the unzipped classfiles.
This change ensures that spring-asm and spring-cglib jars are unzipped
on the fly when creating the spring-core jar.

CGLIB 3 has been released in order to depend on ASM 4, which Spring now
depends on internally (see previous commit).
This commit eliminates spring-beans' optional dependency on cglib-nodep
v2.2 and instead repackages net.sf.cglib => org.springframework.cglib
much in the same way we have historically done with ASM.
This change is beneficial to users in several ways:
- Eliminates the need to manually add CGLIB to the application
classpath; especially important for the growing number of
@Configuration class users. Java-based configuration functionality,
along with proxy-target-class and method injection features now
work 'out of the box' in Spring 3.2.
- Eliminates the possibility of conflicts with other libraries that
may dependend on differing versions of CGLIB, e.g. Hibernate
3.3.1.ga and its dependency on CGLIB 2.1.3 would easily cause a
conflict if the application were depending on CGLIB 3 for
Spring-related purposes.
- Picks up CGLIB 3's changes to support ASM 4, meaning that CGLIB is
that much less likely to work well in a Java 7 environment due to
ASM 4's support for transforming classes with invokedynamic
bytecode instructions.
On CGLIB and ASM:
CGLIB's own dependency on ASM is also transformed along the way to
depend on Spring's repackaged org.springframework.asm, primarily to
eliminate unnecessary duplication of ASM classfiles in spring-core and
in the process save around 100K in the final spring-core JAR file size.
It is coincidental that spring-core and CGLIB currently depend on the
exact same version of ASM (4.0), but it is also unlikely to change any
time soon. If this change does occur and versions of ASM drift, then
the size optimization mentioned above will have to be abandoned. This
would have no compatibility impact, however, so this is a reasonable
solution now and for the forseeable future.
On a mysterious NoClassDefFoundError:
During the upgrade to CGLIB 3.0, Spring test cases began failing due to
NoClassDefFoundErrors being thrown from CGLIB's DebuggingClassWriter
regarding its use of asm-util's TraceClassVisitor type. previous
versions of cglib-nodep, particularly 2.2, did not cause this behavior,
even though cglib-nodep has never actually repackaged and bundled
asm-util classes. The reason for these NoClassDefFoundErrors occurring
now is still not fully understood, but appears to be due to subtle JVM
bytecode preverification rules. The hypothesis is that due to minor
changes in DebuggingClassWriter such as additional casts, access to
instance variables declared in the superclass, and indeed a change in
the superclass hierarchy, preverification may be kicking in on the
toByteArray method body, at which point the reference to the missing
TraceClassVisitor type is noticed and the NCDFE is thrown. For this
reason, a dummy implementation of TraceClassVisitor has been added to
spring-core in the org.springframework.asm.util package. This class
simply ensures that Spring's own tests never result in the NCDFE
described above, and more importantly that Spring's users never
encounter the same.
Other changes include:
- rename package-private Cglib2AopProxy => CglibAopProxy
- eliminate all 'cglibAvailable' checks, warnings and errors
- eliminate all 'CGLIB2' language in favor of 'CGLIB'
- eliminate all mention in reference and java docs of needing to add
cglib(-nodep) to one's application classpath
