Can I use new spring 3.2 with older spring-security 3.0

问题

I want to upgrade Spring framework from 3.0 to 3.2, but would like to skip upgrading spring-security for a while.

Can I use new spring 3.2 with older spring-security 3.0 ?

Spring modules used are spring-core, spring-orm, spring-mvc (for web services only)

回答1:

We are successfully running an application based on Spring 3.2.1.RELEASE and Spring Security 3.1.3.RELEASE. We didn't have any particular problem while setting this up.

Unfortunately I don't have any source that show this is officially supported.

If you are using Maven in your project, you should force versions to avoid having the same jars with multiple versions in your classpath:

<properties>
    <spring.version>3.2.1.RELEASE</spring.version>
    <spring-security.version>3.1.3.RELEASE</spring-security.version>
</properties>

<dependencyManagement>
    <dependencies>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
            <artifactId>spring-context</artifactId>
            <version>${spring.version}</version>
        </dependency>

        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
            <artifactId>spring-context-support</artifactId>
            <version>${spring.version}</version>
        </dependency>

        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.springframework.security</groupId>
            <artifactId>spring-security-core</artifactId>
            <version>${spring-security.version}</version>
        </dependency>
        <!-- Etc. (specify a fixed version for each Spring jar) -->
    </dependencies>
</dependencyManagement>

I am running slightly different combination - Spring 3.1.4 with Spring Security 3.0.5 and it also works fine:

<properties>
    <spring.version>3.1.4.RELEASE</spring.version>
    <spring.security.version>3.0.5.RELEASE</spring.security.version>
</properties>
