This commit deprecates the `ws` starter in favour of a new `web-services`
starter. A deprecation warning auto-configuration has also been added to
the ws starter.
Closes gh-5711
Rename spring-boot-starter-webservices back to spring-boot-starter-ws.
Unfortunately the starter exists in Spring Boot 1.3 so we can't rename
it without consequence.
See gh-5711
Previously, the documentation included hand-written tables for the
application, production, and technical starters.
This commit replaces the hand-written tables with tables that are
generated automatically from all of the starter poms, thereby ensuring
that the documentation is automatically kept up-to-date as starters
are added and removed. An extra column provided a link to each
starter's pom on GitHub has also been added to the table. This makes
it easier for users to see exactly what each starter contains.
Closes gh-5267
This commit replaces Spring Boot's basic dependency management support
with separate dependency management plugin. This has a number of
benefits including:
1. A Maven bom can be used rather than a custom properties file
2. Dependency management is applied transitively rather than only to
direct dependencies
3. Exclusions are applied as they would be in Maven
4. Gradle-generated poms are automatically configured with the
appropriate dependency management
Closes gh-2133
Prior to this commit, when used with Gradle, spring-boot-starter-ws was
pulling in the versions of spring-jms, spring-oxm, and spring-tx that
Spring WS depends upon, rather than using the Boot’s Spring version.
It’s ok at the moment as both Boot and Spring WS depend on Spring 4.0.5
but will cause problems if we upgrade to 4.0.6 before Spring WS does.
This commit adds explicit dependencies on spring-jms and spring-oxm so
that Gradle pulls in the correct version (as long as a transitive
dependency doesn’t pull in a version that’s greater than the version
Boot’s using).
- upgraded Spring WS to 2.2.0.RELEASE
- replaced default MVC DispatcherServlet with MessageDispatcherServlet
- migrated XML based config with nww Spring WS Java config
Fixes: gh-412
