We're pleased to announce the release of Spring Web Flow Preview 5 (PR5).

Download the release from Sourceforge.

All users of previous previews are encouraged to upgrade to this release.  Special thanks to the SWF forum community for being so helpful in readying the quality of this release.

This release addresses several issues introduced in PR4, notably restoring JDK 1.3 and Struts 1.1 compatibility.  It also adds the API JavaDocs to the release archive along with a considerable amount of general release documentation.  Last but not least, this release improves upon the one-step build process to building and deploying the sample applications.

We're pleased to announce that Spring 1.2.3 has just been released. This is a bugfix and minor enhancement release, fixing a number of issues related to the application context startup sequence and introducing various minor new features.

All Spring 1.2.2 users are encouraged to upgrade to Spring 1.2.3, in particular if using factory methods and/or auto-proxy creation (as used by the transaction annotation support). Full backwards compatibility with Spring 1.2.1 should be restored in that area.

As always, for a full list of enhancements and fixes, please see the changelog.

Dear Spring Community,

I'm pleased to announce the release of Spring Web Flow Preview 4 (PR4). This release aligns Spring Web Flow for use with Spring 1.2.2+.

This will be the last Web Flow preview release; the next release will be 1.0 RC1. To download, access: http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=73357&package_id=148517

Note: there are some incompatible changes between PR3 and PR4. This includes a root package rename from org.springframework.web.flow to org.springframework.webflow, noting Web Flow's status as a standalone module deserving of a top-level package.  For a complete list of changes, access the change log here: http://opensource.atlassian.com/confluence/spring/display/WEBFLOW/Change+Log

During the afternoon keynote of the JavaOne conference today, Mark Carges, CTO of  BEA Systems announced that, in a partnership with Interface21, BEA would be certifying the use of Spring Framework on BEA's WebLogic Server, and offering support to their customers in the use of Spring. Rod Johnson, Spring Framework founder and Interface21 CEO, was onstage as well.

From the BEA Press Release:

"Much of the innovation in programming models for the J2EE technology platform is happening in the open source community," said Carges.  "Developers already save a lot of time by using leading frameworks like Apache Beehive and Spring Framework, and the ability to mix and match the best components and deployment platforms give them optimal building blocks to get their jobs done."

We're pleased to announce that Spring 1.2.1 has just been released. This is a bugfix and refinement release, addressing a number of issues found in 1.2 final.

Furthermore, the PetClinic sample has been updated to serve as showcase for JMX export: the JDBC version exposes a cache refresh operation and a call monitor via JMX now.

We'd like to encourage all Spring 1.2 RC/final users to upgrade to Spring 1.2.1, in particular if using the Hibernate3 integration.
