SPRING FRAMEWORK AND BOOT PURGE DEPRECATION WARNINGS AHEAD OF GRADLE 10

By RepoJournal · Filed · About Spring

Spring Framework is systematically eliminating deprecation warnings across the codebase as Gradle 9.6 forces the migration to modern APIs.

The framework team addressed internal and public deprecations spanning deprecated Locale constructors, URL constructors, and Thread#getId calls [1]. This cleanup is tied to a Gradle upgrade that's already emitting warnings of its own. The Gradle 9.6.0/9.6.1 jump deprecated Project.getProperties() and will remove it entirely in Gradle 10.0, forcing Spring Framework to migrate TestConventions and build scripts to use findProperty() instead [2]. Over in Boot land, the team is squashing a trio of bugs where Actuator fails to refresh on Jersey and Cloud Foundry when spring-boot-health is absent [3] [4]. The fix moves health-specific beans into nested configurations so management endpoints can load without the health module present [5]. Meanwhile, OpenTelemetry documentation got clarified on service.name and service.namespace defaults [6].
