Previously, when the configuration properties annotation processor
encountered a property that was the same as an outer type that had
already been processed, it would fail with a stack overflow error.
This commit introduces the use of a stack to track the types that
have been processed. Types that have been seen before are skipped,
thereby preventing a failure from occurring. We do not fail upon
encountering a recursive type to allow metadata generation to
complete. At runtime, the recursive property will not cause a problem
if it is not bound.
Fixes gh-18365
Previously, Maven's default behaviour was relied up which resulted
in the artifact ID being appended to each URL as it was inherited.
This behaviour can only be disabled in Maven 3.6 and later, a version
that we cannot use due to an incompatibility with the Flatten Plugin.
This commit works around Maven's default behaviour by defining
properties for the SCM URL, connection, and developer connection and
then explicitly defining the settings in each pom using these
properties. The explicit definition of the properties in each pom
prevents them being inherited from the parent, thereby disabling the
unwanted appending of the artifact ID to the URL.
Fixes gh-18328
This commit updates the annotation processor to write metadata in a
consistent way. Groups, properties and hints are written and each item
is ordered alphabetically based on its name.
Also, deprecated items are written last.
Closes gh-14347
This commit adds support for Spring Framework's `DataSize` allowing to
express a size in bytes and other convenient units.
Similar to the `Duration` support introduced previously, this commit
adds transparent binding support as well as detection of default values
in `@ConfigurationProperties`-annotated object.
Closes gh-13974
