[esb-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Closed: (JBESB-3390) Update Spring dependency to version 2.5.6.SEC01 - version mismatches cause problems with RiftSaw

Update Spring dependency to version 2.5.6.SEC01 - version mismatches cause problems with RiftSaw ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Key: JBESB-3390 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/browse/JBESB-3390 Project: JBoss ESB Issue Type: Task Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Reporter: Aleksander Adamowski Currently, JBossESB deploys with spring jars for Spring 2.5.5. At the same time, the latest release of RiftSaw BPEL engine deploys with spring-aspects-2.5.6.SEC01.jar and spring-2.5.6.SEC01.jar. The version mismatch between ESB and RiftSaw causes problems when making use of some features of Spring Framework in Riftsaw's CXF web service endpoint configuration descriptors. E.g. if one tries to create a bean for accessing EJBs to be used by CXF interceptors: <bean id="ejbProxyBean" class="org.springframework.ejb.access.LocalStatelessSessionProxyFactoryBean"> <property name="jndiName" value="SomeSessionEJB"/> <property name="businessInterface" value="SomeSessionEJBInterface"/> </bean> The result is an exception in the logs: org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'ejbProxyBean' .... .... Caused by: java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: org.springframework.util.ReflectionUtils.isEqualsMethod(Ljava/lang/reflect/Method;)Z at org.springframework.aop.support.AopUtils.isEqualsMethod(AopUtils.java:118) at org.springframework.aop.framework.JdkDynamicAopProxy.findDefinedEqualsAndHashCodeMethods(JdkDynamicAopProxy.java:131) at org.springframework.aop.framework.JdkDynamicAopProxy.getProxy(JdkDynamicAopProxy.java:116) at org.springframework.aop.framework.ProxyFactory.getProxy(ProxyFactory.java:110) at org.springframework.ejb.access.LocalStatelessSessionProxyFactoryBean.afterPropertiesSet(LocalStatelessSessionProxyFactoryBean.java:89) at org.springframework.beans.factory.support.AbstractAutowireCapableBeanFactory.invokeInitMethods(AbstractAutowireCapableBeanFactory.java:1368) at org.springframework.beans.factory.support.AbstractAutowireCapableBeanFactory.initializeBean(AbstractAutowireCapableBeanFactory.java:1334) That's because there was no isEqualsMethod() in Spring 2.5.5's version of ReflectionUtils. The latest release of Spring is 2.5.6.SEC01, and JBoss ESB should update to that, especially considering that it's a security fix release.
