Dear Spring Community,

We are pleased to announce the general availability of Spring for Android 1.0!

Spring for Android supports usage of the Spring Framework in a Android environment.

This GA release includes minor fixes and improvements since the RC1 release. See the changelog and reference manual for more information.

A significant change in this release is that the default RestTemplate constructor no longer includes any message body converters. However, an alternate constructor allows you to include a standard set of message converters, similar to previous releases. See the API Javadoc and Reference Manual for more details on this change.

To retrieve the software, download the release distribution, or add the maven artifacts to your project. Sample apps are available at github.com/SpringSource/spring-android-samples

We want to thank the community for their contributions to this GA release, and we look forward to working with them on future releases. If you are building a native Android app, we encourage you to try out Spring for Android 1.0 and collaborate with us on the next iteration of the project.

The first milestone release toward Spring 3.2 is now available from the SpringSource repository at http://repo.springsource.org. See here for a quick tutorial on resolving these artifacts via Maven.

This release includes:

• initial support for asynchronous @Controller methods
• early support for JCache-based cache providers
• significant performance improvements in autowiring of non-singleton beans
• initial delay support for @Scheduled and <task:scheduled>
• ability to choose between multiple executuors with @Async
• enhanced bean profile selection using the not (!) operator
• 48 bugs fixed, 8 new features and 36 improvements implemented

This is also the first release since our move to GitHub and using our new Gradle build. A special thanks to the authors of the many pull requests submitted and merged during 3.2 M1! Keep them coming!

Hot on the heels of the 1.1.0 GA release of Spring Data JPA, I'm pleased to announce the milestone 2 release of Spring Data REST. Besides many bug fixes, this M2 release includes a major update of functionality for the Spring Data REST exporter.

New functionality includes:

• Query method support - Spring Data REST 1.0.0.M2 includes support for invoking query methods of Repository interfaces. Results are returned as links to top-level resources.
• Comprehensive validation support - In addition to JSR-303 validation, the Spring Data REST exporter recognizes Spring Validator beans declared in your ApplicationContext to provide rich validation support. Your Validator beans can do anything--even look up other data to verify the integrity of an object graph.
• ApplicationEvent handling - The exporter's validation support is built on top of the Spring ApplicationEvent mechanism. ApplicationEvents are emitted before and after each save or delete, allowing your code to tie into these lifecycle events and trigger other actions.
• Annotation-based URL configuration - There is a new annotation: @RestResource you can place on a Repository interface or on a Repository's query methods to influence both the URL under which the resource is exported and the "rel" attribute associated with the links generated to point to that resource.
