On behalf of the Spring Integration team I am pleased to announce that the fifth milestone for the Spring Integration 5.0 release (5.0.0.M5) is now available.

21 JIRAs (and some GitHub issues) made into this release, including bug fixes and a number of new features. Some highlights of features in M4 and M5, since the previously announced Milestone 3:

• The Splitter now can deal with the Java Stream and Reactor Flux payloads. If the output channel is a ReactiveStreamsSubscribableChannel, splitting supports back-pressure.

• A ErrorMessagePublisher together with the ErrorMessageStrategy have been introduced to pursue better error handling experience with the inception message for the ErrorMessage. The MessageListenerContainer in Spring Kafka 2.0 and Spring AMQP 2.0 are supplied with their own ErrorMessageStrategy to represent the original data in the ErrorMessage for the error handling flow.

• The new MockMessageHandler has been added to Spring Integration Test framework for replacing real `MessageHandler`s for unit testing:

  MessageHandler mockMessageHandler = mockMessageHandler() .handleNextAndReply(m -> m.getPayload().toString().toUpperCase());

  this.mockIntegrationContext .substituteMessageHandlerFor("myServiceActivator", mockMessageHandler);

  this.pojoServiceChannel.send(new GenericMessage<>("foo")); receive = this.results.receive(10000);

  assertEquals("FOO", receive.getPayload());

Dear Spring community,

It is my pleasure to announce that our second Spring Framework 5.0 release candidate is available now. This is a major revision of RC1, with refactorings in our new reactive facilities and in our new path pattern parser, as well as code style refinements all over the framework.

This release introduces a formal non-null API declaration for all of our packages, with explicitly nullable arguments and return values annotated as such now (instead of just javadoc'ed). Our nullability annotations are compliant with JSR 305 and specifically supported by IntelliJ IDEA and…
