NEXT STOP: SPRING FRAMEWORK 4.0

Спрінг анонсував наступний крок в еволюції Spring.

For Spring Framework 4.0, our focus is on emerging enterprise themes in 2013 and beyond:

First-class support for Java SE 8 based Spring applications:
language features such as lambda expressions; APIs such as JSR-310 Date and Time
Configuring and implementing Spring-style applications using Groovy 2:
Groovy-based bean definitions; Groovy as the language of choice for an entire app
Support for key Java EE 7 technologies:
including JMS 2.0, JPA 2.1, Bean Validation 1.1, Servlet 3.1, and JCache
Enabling WebSocket-style application architectures:
support for JSR-356 compliant runtimes and related technologies
Fine-grained eventing and messaging within the application:
building on our existing application event and message listener mechanisms
Pruning and dependency upgrades:
removing deprecated features; raising minimum dependencies to Java 6+ etc
