Spring Boot 1.4.0 M3 Release Notes

Upgrading from Spring Boot 1.4.0 M2

See instructions in the 1.4.0.M1 release notes for upgrading from v1.3.

Remote Shell

The CRaSH properties have moved from the shell. namespace to the management.shell. namespace. Also, the authentication type should now be defined via management.shell.auth.type.

Multipart support

The multipart properties have moved from the multipart. namespace to the spring.http.multipart. namespace.

Integration Starter

spring-boot-starter-integration has been streamlined by removing four modules that are not necessarily used by a typical Spring Integration application. The four modules are:

spring-integration-file
spring-integration-http
spring-integration-ip
spring-integration-stream

If your application relies on any of these four modules, you should add an explicit dependency to your pom or build.gradle.

Additionally, spring-integration-java-dsl has been added to the starter. Using the DSL is the recommended way to configure Spring Integration in your application.
