x) * fixed spring-core.jar's manifest to contain correct OSGi Import-Package declaration * removed superfluous DynamicImport-Package declarations from OSGi manifests * all decorator proxies are using identity InvocationHandler hash code now Package org.springframework.aop * fixed various AspectJ expression evaluation bugs through upgrading aspectjweaver.jar to AspectJ 1.6 Package org.springframework.beans * added AbstractAutowireCapableBeanFactory only invokes "predictBeanType" post-processor method for non-null bean Class Package org.springframework.core * introduced InfrastructureProxy interface for resource proxies to be implemented

references * Spring reference documentation covers annotation-based controllers in Portlet chapter Package org.springframework.aop * deprecated ProxyFactoryBean's support for a target as last element in designator matches against bean name aliases as well, not just against the canonical bean name Package org.springframework.beans * CharacterEditor's "allowEmpty" only translates empty String to null, eanPostProcessor marks @Autowired bean properties as processed (for @Required to accept them) Package org.springframework.context * ReloadableResourceBundleMessageSource is able to detect updates for

distribution to iText 2.0.7 * updated POI jar in "-with-dependencies" distribution to POI 3.0.1 Package org.springframework.aop * ProxyFactory caches CGLIB proxies only when underlying (Smart)ClassLoader "logTargetClassInvocation" property to AbstractMonitoringInterceptor, for logging the target invocation trace Package org.springframework.beans * ConfigurablePropertyAccessor extends the TypeConverter interface (moved BeanWiringInfoResolver for each context refresh * fixed AutowiredAnnotationBeanPostProcessor to properly cache dependencies that do not correspond to a registered bean * annotation processors detect already managed

(annotation-based configuration etc) Package org.springframework.aop * fixed garbage collection problem with CGLIB proxies, using a strong reference map for the fixed interceptors Package org.springframework.context now * "context:load-time-weaver" correctly detects the use of the Spring VM agent on WebLogic 9 Package org.springframework.core * URL-to-File conversion for ClassPathResource/UrlResource performs URI-based level enum class (again) Package org.springframework.jdbc * added "registerDatabase" method to SQLErrorCodesFactory, for eager association of database names with DataSources Package org.springframework.jms
