Dear Spring community,

I am pleased to announce that Spring 2.0 M2 has been released.

Download it here.

Spring 2.0 M2 is the second milestone of the next generation of Spring. This release includes enhancements and new features, including refined AspectJ support and Java Persistence API (draft) support.  It also contains fixes for issues discovered since 2.0 M1.

Please see the changelog for details.

Spring 1.2.7 will also be released shortly, backporting a number of fixes and minor enhancements from 2.0 M1/M2, and providing the 1.2 series basis for the upcoming Spring Web Flow 1.0 release candidate.  The next Spring release in the 2.0 series will be 2.0 M3. Please review the roadmap for more detailed information.

Cheers,

Juergen

Building Spring 2.0 from source

Submitted by Ken Carroll on Thu, 2006-02-02 18:14.

Juergen -- is it correct, as in the changelog, that spring 2.0 must be built using jdk 1.5 ? We use websphere, so still on JDK 1.4, and have a company policy of building all open source from source for reuse in applications. If spring 2.0 needs to be built with jdk 1.5 we would need to do some special things with our build procedures to have just this project built with jdk 1.5 -- so I'm interested to know the answer.

If spring is built with jdk 1.5 are there any known issues with running this in a jdk 1.4 vm ?

Need Lighweight Documentation

Standard reference in PDF contains 10 Hibernate-related pages . Only 4 pages indeed are Spring-Hibernate-specific; the rest is Transaction management, isolated from Hibernate, thanks to Spring! It should be in a different chapter.

IBM announced a new product, WebSphere Application Server Community Edition based on Apache Geronimo.

However... Simply unzip geronimo-tomcat-j2ee-1.0.zip, and find spring-1.2.5.jar inside...
