Git Review

Git has indeed many nice features.

I really like ability to - compile readable commit history (git rebase) - review code with pull request review

Spring integration RouterSpec functions subflowMapping VS channelMapping

I find it unintuitive that two seemingly similar functions subFlowMapping and channelMapping are very different. The difference is not mentioned in the Javadoc. Difference is described in release announcement.

Quote

The channelMapping() continues to work as in regular Router mapping, but the subFlowMapping() tied that subflow with main flow. In other words, any router’s subflow returns to the main flow after .route().

cannot be extracted to 

Function<Object, String> ToStringFuction ...

DSL configuration has all relevant information colocated on one place in the code.
XML configuration has information scattered. Part is in the XML and part in the code.


DSL CONFIGURATION EXAMPLE

.<OrderItem, Boolean>route(OrderItem::isIced, mapping -> mapping // 16
  	    .subFlowMapping("true", routeIced())// 24
  	    .subFlowMapping("false", routeNotIced()))

Spring compared to JEE is much more complex and configurable. Spring also has kind of organic-growth feel. This is why I currently still prefer JEE.

Spring Singleton corresponds to either
- JEE stateless session bean
- or if it has internal state to JEE singleton

Spring Prototype corresponds to JEE stateful session bean.

Spring Scopes Session and Request correspond to CDI Scoped beans. However CDI does not support transactions in contrast to Spring Beans or JEE beans.
