On behalf of the team and everyone who contributed, I’m pleased to announce the availability of the first round of milestones of the Spring Data 2022.0 and 2021.2 release trains.

2021.x vs. 2022.x

You might now ask why is there a new release in the calver 2021.x version and why is there already a 2022.x release?

In parallel to working on Spring Data 3.x, aka 2022.0.0, we continue to invest in the support of the Spring Data 2.x development line. We already expect Spring Data 2.7 and 2.8 releases. So, if you want to continue using Spring Boot 2 for an extended period of time, stick to the 2021.x release trains (which are based on Spring Framework 5.3 and Java 8). That's the reason we chose to continue with calver 2021.x, which, hopefully, makes understanding version compatibilities easier. Our Spring Data 3.x development line will be based on Java 17 and Spring Framework 6 and be compatible with …

On behalf of the community, I am pleased to announce that the 0.4.0 release of Spring Cloud Square is available today. The release can be found in Maven Central. You can check out the 0.4.0 release notes for more information.

Dear Spring community,

On behalf of the team and all the contributors, it’s my pleasure to wish you a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year and present you a fresh Spring Integration 5.5.7 release.

It can be obtained from Maven Central and it is recommended to upgrade your projects or just pull it transitively from respective latest Spring Boot patch version!

compile 'org.springframework.integration:spring-integration-core:5.5.7'

The notable changes and important bug fixes are:

• JDBC message store SQL scripts now quote a CONDITION column name for those RDBMS vendors which have this word as reserved. It is likely in the next major 6.0 version we will rename it to GROUP_CONDITION. So, it is recommended to upgrade to this 5.5.7 version if you deal with JdbcMessageStore for your aggregators.

• Not mentioned previously, but high demanded by Community and introduced in version 5.5.5, the MQTT v5 channel adapters are present now in the spring-integration-mqtt module. They are Mqttv5PahoMessageDrivenChannelAdapter and Mqttv5PahoMessageHandler, respectively. See Reference Manual for more information.
