Posted by: Russell Miles on 11/13/2008

Just a quick post to say that Spring for .NET 1.2.0 is now official out of the bag and available for download.

The team and community have worked incredibly hard to get things ready for GA and we're all really pleased that we now have a fresh set of features for you to use in your own .NET development.

Highlights of 1.2.0 (from the official release announcement) include:

  • WCF Integration - Configure WCF services using dependency injection.Apply AOP advice to WCF services.
  • MSMQ integration - MSMQ helper classes to increase your productivity developing messaging applications. Provides integration with Spring's transaction management features.
  • Apache ActiveMQ integration - Helper classes to increase your productivity developing messaging applications with ActiveMQ/NMS
  • Quartz integration -Configure Quartz jobs, schedulers, triggers using dependency injection. Convenience classes for implementing Quartz Jobs.
  • AOP -  New inheritance based AOP proxy generation
  • NHibernate 2.0.1 support.

If you'd like to see some of these features in action, and are in London next week, then sign up for my "In the brain..." talk at Skills Matter where I'll be demonstrating these and more.

Fantastic work guys! Onwards and upwards towards 2.0.
