I was wondering what would be necessary to move the Spring support
out of samples into the core of Controls.
There has been talk of supporting non-Tomcat containers and I think
the Spring support is the closest thing out there now. It'd provide
the ability to support transactions, timers (Quartz or CommonJ), AOP
and other J2EE goodies across multiple containers.
I'd really like to see Controls made available to Grails using Spring
service injection (perhaps via their plugin mechanism, but that's a
patch for Grails...).
I am not sure what the criteria would be to transition the Spring
support out of samples. I think a full set of unit tests and
documentation would be in order. Would this be a good thing?
