Dear Spring community,

I’m pleased to announce that Spring Framework 5.0.5 and 4.3.15 are available now, as another pair of refinement releases which are recommended as immediate upgrades for all users. Our 5.0.5 release is the foundation for the upcoming Spring Boot 2.0.1 release later this week, and 4.3.15 will be picked up by Boot 1.5.11 around the same time.

Both framework releases come with plenty of bug fixes but also with a wide selection of refinements, wrapping up before we branch towards Spring Framework 5.1 and turn the 5.0.x and 4.3.x lines into low-volume maintenance mode. Our 5.…

Since the first release of Spring Boot, it has been possible to bind properties to classes by using the @ConfigurationProperties annotation. It has also been possible to specify property names in different forms. For example, person.first-name, person.firstName and PERSON_FIRSTNAME can all be used interchangeably. We call this feature “relaxed binding”.

Unfortunately, in Spring Boot 1.x, “relaxed binding” turned out to be a little bit too relaxed. It was quite hard to define exactly what the binding rules were and when specific formats could be used. We also started to get reports of issues that were very hard to fix with our 1.x implementation. For example, in Spring Boot 1.x it is not possible to bind items to a java.util.Set…

Spring Cloud Open Service Broker 2.0.0.M2 is now available. Spring Cloud Open Service Broker is a framework for building Spring Boot applications that implement the Open Service Broker API. This second milestone adds more polish and improvements as we continue toward a release candidate. The following list includes some of the updates:

• Update JavaDoc, reference docs, some more JavaDoc, and more reference docs

• Rename the spring-cloud-open-service-broker artifact to spring-cloud-open-service-broker-core

• Add support for externalized configuration of the Catalog in YAML or Java properties

• Add support to disable API version checking via a configuration property

• Improve exception handling and logging
