http://www.springframework.net/

1. INTRODUCTION

Spring.NET contains:

  • A full featured Inversion of Control container
  • An Aspect Oriented Programming framework
  • Expression Language for lightweight scripting
  • UI-agnostic validation framework
  • ASP.NET Framework
    • Dependency Injection for pages and user controls, bi-directional data binding, and more.
  • ASP.NET MVC and ASP.NET WebAPI Framework
    • Dependency Injection for MVC (includin WebAPI).
  • Declarative transaction management abstraction
    • Declarative transaction management via use of common XML configuration and attributes across different transaction APIs
  • ADO.NET framework
    • Simplifies use of ADO.NET. DAO support classes and integration with Spring's declarative transaction management functionality
  • Portable Service Abstractions
    • Export plain .NET objects via .NET Remoting, Web Service or .NET Serviced Component and create client side proxies based on endpoint URL and service interface.
  • NHibernate Integation
    • NHibernate 5 integration to simplify use of NHibernate and participate in Spring's declarative transaction management functionality.
  • ASP.NET AJAX Integration
    • Exporter to expose plain object on which Dependency Injection and AOP have been applied to JavaScript.
  • NUnit and MSTest integration

    • Provides Dependency Injection and applicatin of AOP advice to WCF services
  • Quartz integration
    • Configure Quartz jobs using dependency injection and Spring's transactional support to persist job details
  • MSMQ integration
    • Simplifies the use MSMQ by providing helper classes for message sending and receiving. Integrates with Spring's transaction management features.
  • NMS integration
    • Simplifies the use of NMS by providing helper classes for message sending and receiving.
  • TIBCO EMS integration
    • Simplifies the use of TIBCO EMS by providing helper classes for message sending and receiving.
  • NVelocity integration
    • Simplifies the use of configuring NVelocity

Spring.NET is a port of the Java based Spring Framework. In turn, the Java/J2EE Spring Framework is based on code published in "Expert One-on-One J2EE Design and Development" by Rod Johnson (Wrox, 2002).

2. SUPPORTED .NET FRAMEWORK VERSIONS

Spring.NET 3.0.0 supports .NET 4.5.2 and .NET Standard 2.0 and later.

7. How to build

VS.NET

Visual Studio 2019 is required to open and build the solution. The free community version of Visual Studio should suffice.

8. Support

The user forums at http://forum.springframework.net/ are available for you to submit questions, support requests, and interact with other Spring.NET users.

Bug and issue tracking can be found at https://jira.springsource.org/browse/SPRNET

A Fisheye repository browser is located at https://fisheye.springframework.org/browse/spring-net

To get the sources, fork us on github at https://github.com/SpringSource/spring-net

We are always happy to receive your feedback on the forums. If you think you found a bug, have an improvement suggestion or feature request, please submit a ticket in JIRA (see link above).

A word on bug reports: If at all possible, try to download one of the nightly snapshots at http://www.springframework.net/downloads/nightly/ and see, if this bug has already been fixed. If the problem still persists, don't forget to mention the version of Spring.NET you are using (check the file versions of Spring.NET dlls), the .NET version you are running on and a description how to reproduce the problem.
Ideally attach some sample code reproducing the problem to the JIRA ticket.
