In general, the project has been moved to the latest dependency versions. Java 17 is still the baseline, but Java 25 is supported.
New Components
CloudEvents Support
The new spring-integration-cloudevents module has been introduced to support CloudEvents specification.
See CloudEvents Support for more information.
gRPC Support
The new spring-integration-grpc module has been introduced to support gRPC framework.
See gRPC Support for more information.
General Changes
The MessageTransformingHandler.requiresReply flag cannot be modified: an UnsupportedOperationException is thrown from the overridden setRequiresReply() method to indicate the transformer pattern cannot produce nulls for replies.
See Transformer for more information.
Web Services Support Changes
The Web Services Outbound Gateway now can rely on the provided WebServiceTemplate.defaultUri.
See Web Services Support for more information.
Testing Support Changes
The TestUtils.getPropertyValue() with a Class<?> argument has been deprecated in favor of the change on the overloaded method from an Object return type to the generic argument.
This gives a flexible casting of the extracted value to the expected type in tests logic.
See Testing support for more information.
Redis Support Changes
The RedisMessageStore.doRemove now uses GETDEL instead of GET + UNLINK for Redis 6.2+ by default.
Use RedisMessageStore.setUseUnlink(true) to use GET + UNLINK when atomicity is not required and GETDEL causes noticeable Redis latency.
See Redis Support for more information.
JMS Support Changes
JMS-backed message channels now map headers to JMS message properties and back. See JMS Support for more information.
HTTP Support Changes
The HttpRequestExecutingMessageHandler (its XML and Java DSL) now can be used with a RestClient.
The RestTemplate configuration is deprecated.
See HTTP Support for more information.
