For your information, plexus-spring no handle plexus requirement without
filed-name set.

The -Dplexus-spring.debug=true option can be used to dump the translated
spring XML (using dom4j)

PlexusInSpringTestCase as been used as replacement for PlexusTestCase in
archiva-policies with no other change required in the test class (only a new
spring context file required to declare the LoggerManager)

Some debugging logs have been added to trace the filed-injection and
dependencies resolution.


.. but still not ready as
CacheFailuresTransferTest.testGetWithCacheFailuresOff pass run alone, but
not if ran after testGetWithCacheFailuresOn!
Seems there is some incomplete support on context cleanup / dispose

Please be patient, Rahul ;-)

Nico.
