Dear Spring Community,

We are pleased to announce that Spring CodeConfig for .NET 1.0.0 is now available.

Download | NuGet Package | Support | Documentation | Community

		<p>Note also that Spring CodeConfig for .NET is also available as <a href="http://nuget.org/List/Packages/Spring.CodeConfig" target="_new">a NuGet Package</a>.</p>

This release contains the following major features:

• Code-based configuration similar to the @Configuration support in Spring Java
• Declarative Assembly Scanning to detect Configuration Classes
• Support for mixing and matching Code-based and XML-based configuration metadata
• Extension Methods to support Code-Based Configuration on existing Application Contexts
• Bootstrapping the Context configuration from either Code-First or XML-First approaches

This project is hosted at GitHub and is the first step in the process of expanding Spring.NET's support for non-XML-dependent configuration scenarios.

The next steps for this project include the following:

• Definition of additional elements such as Aspects and ValueResolvers
• Convention/Rule-based Object Definitions, Registrations, Aspects, PointCuts, and JoinPoints
• Fluent Object Definition API

<p>As always, we encourage <a href="http://forum.springframework.net/" target="_new">feedback from the community</a> on this and all aspects of Spring.NET!</p>
