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

This affects us heavily, but makes total sense (my +1).  Once this is
committed I'll start migrating/testing our code.

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 recomm=
end
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=3D".../> 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.
