Summary
Spring 2.0 introduced major enhancements in the Spring Framework making it both simpler to use and more powerful. In this session, Rod discusses some of the enhancements through code examples, focusing on: - Extensible XML configuration, support for dynamic languages in the Spring component model, and support for JPA.
Rod demonstrates how Spring 2.0 provides a launching pad for further developments in 2007, discussing the implications of OSGi integration for the Spring component model, and additional configuration options.
Finally Rod surveys the Spring Portfolio, and show how the ecosystem around Spring helps in many areas of enterprise development.
