Subject: [Springframework-developer] BaseCommandController: setBeanName ->
setCommandName


Everybody,

In the old tradition of last minute changes before Spring releases ;-), I'd
like to finally change BaseCommandController's "setBeanName" method to
"setCommandName", as it has been bugging me for quite a while that
"setBeanName" is too generic and misleading. Now that we have a
BeanNameAware interface with the natural method name "setBeanName",
BaseCommandController's naming is even more confusing. "setCommandName"
would accompany the existing "setCommandClass" method nicely.

Of course, setBeanName is a *very* commonly called method in command/form
controller initialization. I consider this a reason to change it before 1.0
final, as we would have to stick with it else. I suggest to keep
"setBeanName" as deprecated method for the time being, but clearly recommend
to switch to "setCommandName".

The same applies to our various notions of XML bean references. I'd like to
drop support for the deprecated <ref external=".../> as of 1.0 RC1, and
suggest to proceed similarly with BaseCommandController's setBeanName. If we
communicate that clearly, we shouldn't cause any migration headaches.
