IntegrationMessageHeaderAccessor.CLOSEABLE_RESOURCE value typo

The closableResource typo in the IntegrationMessageHeaderAccessor.CLOSEABLE_RESOURCE constant value has been fixed to the proper closeableResource. If application doesn't use IntegrationMessageHeaderAccessor.CLOSEABLE_RESOURCE to access to an appropriate header, it is recommended to review any closableResource typo usage.

JMS Default Connection Factory Bean Name

JMS components can be configured using XML with no connection factory property; the framework uses a default bean name. Prior to version 5.0, this default bean name was connectionFactory. In order to align with Spring Boot's auto configuration, which configures a bean called jmsConnectionFacrory, Spring Integration now uses that bean name as the default. If your application relied on the previous behavior, you will need to rename your bean to jmsConnectionFactory or change the component definitions to explicitly reference your bean.

Reactor 3.0 support

The Reactor 2.0 isn't supported any more. The Messaging Gateway Promise return type from Reactor 2.0 has been replaced with the Mono type from Reactor 3.0. For all the Reactive Streams changes for new Mono type, please, refer to the Reactor Project Site.

Java DSL

The Spring Integration Java DSL has been merged to the Core project with Java 8 code base. The old project remains for the previous Spring Integration versions and isn't compatible with version 5.0. Although the project has been generally merged, some changes have happened:

The following classes have been moved :

  • All the classes from org.springframework.integration.dsl.core to org.springframework.integration.dsl.

  • From org.springframework.integration.dsl.support:

  • the Java 8 functions (Consumer, Function etc.) have been removed in favor of java.util.function package classes
  • Transformers to the org.springframework.integration.dsl;
  • BeanNameMessageProcessor to the org.springframework.integration.handler;
  • FunctionExpression to the org.springframework.integration.expression;
  • GenericHandler to the org.springframework.integration.handler;
  • MapBuilder, StringStringMapBuilder and PropertiesBuilder to the org.springframework.integration.support;
  • MessageProcessorMessageSource to the org.springframework.integration.endpoint;
  • org.springframework.integration.dsl.support.tuple classes have been replaced for usage for similar from the package reactor.util.function, which is now mandatory dependency Reactor 3.0.

  • Classes DslIntegrationConfigurationInitializer and IntegrationFlowBeanPostProcessor from the package org.springframework.integration.dsl.config have been moved to the org.springframework.integration.config.dsl.

  • Classes TransactionHandleMessageAdvice and TransactionInterceptorBuilder from the package org.springframework.integration.dsl.transaction have been moved to the org.springframework.integration.transaction.

All the protocol-specific Java DSL components, e.g. Jms and Jpa factories, have been moved to the appropriate Spring Integration Modules with straightforward package rename. For example classes from the org.springframework.integration.dsl.mail package are now in the spring-integration-mail module and in the package org.springframework.integration.mail.dsl. The org.springframework.integration.dsl.kafka content is now located in the Spring Integration Kafka extension project, in version 3.0 in the package org.springframework.integration.kafka.dsl.

Java DSL breaking changes

  • The protocol-specific factory methods in the Channels (e.g. amqp(ConnectionFactory connectionFactory)) have been removed in favor of appropriate factory methods in the target DSL components factory. For example jmsPollable() is now like Jms.pollableChannel().

  • The protocol-specific factory methods in the Transformers (e.g. fromMail()) have been removed in favor of appropriate factory methods in the target DSL components factory. For example fileToString() is now like Files.toStringTransformer().

  • The IntegrationFlowDefinition.handleWithAdapter(), together with its Adapters factory, has been removed to avoid modules tangle. Now you have to use target DSL components factory directly, for example:

.handle(Files.outboundGateway(m -> m.getHeaders().get("directory")))

instead of:

.handleWithAdapter(a -> a.fileGateway(m -> m.getHeaders().get("directory")))

STOMP Support and Reactor 3.0

The Reactor2TcpStompSessionManager has been renamed to the ReactorNettyTcpStompSessionManager and it is based on a new ReactorNettyTcpStompClient from Spring Framework 5.0. Reactor 2.x components aren't supported any more.

AMQP Header Mapping

The DefaultAmqpHeaderMapper now maps the AmqpHeaders.CORRELATION_ID (amqp_correlationId) to/from String. Previously, it mapped to/from byte[].

FileWritingMessageHandler Flush Predicates

The FlushPredicate and MessageFlushPredicate have an addition parameter firstWrite - the time a new (or previously closed) file was first written to.
