Alfresco Community 4.0.d and Spring 3.0.5 PropertyConfigurer

[abarisone]

Hi all,
we are currently migrating from Alfresco Community 3.3g to 4.0.d
We are experiencing a problem when using Spring's 3.0.5RELEASE PropertyPlaceHolderConfigurer, shipped with Alfresco Communiuty 4.0.d
It comes out that when starting the context the properties placeholders are not resolved.
This seems due to a bug present in Spring 3.0.5RELEASE version, which has been fixed with 3.0.6RELEASE version.
Note that on 3.3g the Spring's release is 3.0 everything works fine.

We are trying to replace the 3.0.5 version when applying our amp to alfresco.war
Is planned an outcoming new release or is there a workaround for this problem?

Thanks,
Andrea

Going on with the migration, we progressively "switched on" all the modules that build up our AMP.
One of them uses Apache CXF 2.5 for interaction with other external systems (in the way I show in this thread https://forums.alfresco.com/en/viewtopic.php?f=53&t=38576).
We found another little issue about the use of

<context:annotation-config /> ‍

inside our contexts.
It seems to trigger some other thing inside Alfresco and causes the context bootstrap to fail during startup.
We could remove that line since we don't actually use that feature in our code, (but it obviously could have been a problem if we had to) and everything works fine.

Hi,
I noticed that Spring 3.0.5RELEASE libs are always shipped with Alfresco Community 4.2.a distribution.
Is there a reason for that and it is planned an upgrade?
