[Springframework-developer] FW: package dependency

[Keith D. <ke...@in...>]

Hey guys,

 

Juergen and discussed this: a dependency on util -> core is NOT acceptable.
"core" is intended for higher-level utilities used throughout Spring, for
generic, more complete abstractions like the Resource API.  It may depend on
util, but not the other way around.  Util is intended for low-level helpers,
and should not depend on any other package but stuff in JDK 1.3.  Both go in
spring-core.jar.

 

So in light of this, I'm relocating a good deal of packages from util to
core, the closure, enums, comparator, and string styler support,
respectively.  This seems much better and solves the problem I was facing:
that is, a class needing NestedRuntimeException, which is in the core.

Is a package dependency from "util" to "core" acceptable? I could really use
NestedRuntimeException there...
