Spring

I was thinking about returning to springframework for .net DI, but I only noticed that there were no recent developments or announcements on their site . Can anyone confirm that they are still actively developing the .net version of the spring version, or is the project dead?

I know this was asked earlier ( spring.net is actively maintained / developed / documented? ), But it was more than 2 years ago. The last announcement on the website’s homepage is from December 2012.

Some evidence that he is dead:

  • The forums site does not work, for how long I do not know
  • On the page
  • Since May 2012, the build was unsuccessful on the jira website

I can only refer to this part of "I was thinking about returning to the spring calendar for .net DI." Definitely not worth it. There is a wide range of good DI frameworks in .NET. Compared to them, Spring.NET is deprecated. Mainly due to XML-based configuration. There is a subproject for providing configuration without XML, but it is not finished yet. It cannot be compared even with the original Spring Java configuration.

This suggests that I will use Spring.Net, even if it is an abandoned project. This is because he has other goodies:

  • AOP is integrated with DI;
  • libraries are easy to use DI, for example, when using WCF or ASP.MVC;
  • Transaction Processing ADO.NET; this allows us to write components that can later be configured to work in different transaction contexts, even with drivers that do not support TransactionScope.
