----------------------------------- General * many javadoc refinements and clarifications * declared all internal ThreadLocal variables as final (to avoid class reloading issues) * overall startup/shutdown logging AbstractCachingViewResolver, for removing all cached view objects * optimized BeanNameViewResolver to avoid internal throwing and catching of NoSuchBeanDefinitionExceptions * "javaScriptEscape" feature of Spring correctly delegate to parent BeanFactory from "isFactoryBean" * optimized AbstractBeanFactory to avoid internal NoSuchBeanDefinitionException throw+catch as far as possible * reworked AbstractBeanFactory's

applies containing BeanFactory's configuration to internal BeanFactory * AbstractBeanFactoryBasedTargetSourceCreator creates an independent internal BeanFactory per target bean * deprecated ClassLoa synchronization * JtaTransactionManager consistently throws TransactionSystemException in case of unexpected internal transaction state * JtaTransactionManager detects JBoss 4.2 transaction rollbacks caused by a timeout lookups) * reworked "core.asm.ClassReaderFactory" into "core.classreading.MetadataReaderFactory" (with internal ASM usage only) * AspectJTypeFilter uses a given ClassLoader instead of the default ClassLoader

during XSLT processing to properly log compilation errors before an eventual fatal exception * moved internal TransformerUtils helper class to generic "org.springframework.util.xml" package Changes in version applies containing BeanFactory's configuration to internal BeanFactory * AbstractBeanFactoryBasedTargetSourceCreator creates an independent internal BeanFactory per target bean * deprecated ClassLoa synchronization * JtaTransactionManager consistently throws TransactionSystemException in case of unexpected internal transaction state * JtaTransactionManager detects JBoss 4.2 transaction rollbacks caused by a timeout

thread-bound Locale to child threads * fixed GenericApplicationContext to correctly propagate the internal parent BeanFactory in case of a "setParent" call * GenericApplicationContext detects a passed-in VelocityViewResolver, for creating VelocityToolboxView instances * removed "spring." prefix for internal access to variables in Spring's FreeMarker macro library (spring.ftl) * updated AbstractJasperReportsView * added "fetchSize" and "maxRows" bean properties to RdbmsOperation, passing the values to the internal JdbcTemplate * BatchSqlUpdate stores clones of passed-in argument arrays, to avoid side effects
