Class org.springframework.core.annotation.AnnotatedElementUtils

Removed Methods
AnnotationAttributes findAnnotationAttributes(AnnotatedElement, Class<Annotation>) Find the first annotation of the specified {@code annotationType} within the annotation hierarchy above the supplied {@code element} and merge that annotation's attributes with matching attributes from annotations in lower levels of the annotation hierarchy.
AnnotationAttributes findAnnotationAttributes(AnnotatedElement, String) Find the first annotation of the specified {@code annotationType} within the annotation hierarchy above the supplied {@code element} and merge that annotation's attributes with matching attributes from annotations in lower levels of the annotation hierarchy.
AnnotationAttributes findAnnotationAttributes(AnnotatedElement, String, boolean, boolean) Find the first annotation of the specified {@code annotationType} within the annotation hierarchy above the supplied {@code element} and merge that annotation's attributes with matching attributes from annotations in lower levels of the annotation hierarchy.
 

Added Methods
Annotation findMergedAnnotation(AnnotatedElement, Class<A>) Find the first annotation of the specified {@code annotationType} within the annotation hierarchy above the supplied {@code element}, merge that annotation's attributes with matching attributes from annotations in lower levels of the annotation hierarchy, and synthesize the result back into an annotation of the specified {@code annotationType}.
Annotation findMergedAnnotation(AnnotatedElement, String) Find the first annotation of the specified {@code annotationName} within the annotation hierarchy above the supplied {@code element}, merge that annotation's attributes with matching attributes from annotations in lower levels of the annotation hierarchy, and synthesize the result back into an annotation of the specified {@code annotationName}.
AnnotationAttributes findMergedAnnotationAttributes(AnnotatedElement, String, boolean, boolean) Find the first annotation of the specified {@code annotationName} within the annotation hierarchy above the supplied {@code element} and merge that annotation's attributes with matching attributes from annotations in lower levels of the annotation hierarchy.
Annotation getMergedAnnotation(AnnotatedElement, Class<A>) Get the first annotation of the specified {@code annotationType} within the annotation hierarchy above the supplied {@code element}, merge that annotation's attributes with matching attributes from annotations in lower levels of the annotation hierarchy, and synthesize the result back into an annotation of the specified {@code annotationType}.
AnnotationAttributes getMergedAnnotationAttributes(AnnotatedElement, Class<Annotation>) Get the first annotation of the specified {@code annotationType} within the annotation hierarchy above the supplied {@code element} and merge that annotation's attributes with matching attributes from annotations in lower levels of the annotation hierarchy.
AnnotationAttributes getMergedAnnotationAttributes(AnnotatedElement, String) Get the first annotation of the specified {@code annotationName} within the annotation hierarchy above the supplied {@code element} and merge that annotation's attributes with matching attributes from annotations in lower levels of the annotation hierarchy.
AnnotationAttributes getMergedAnnotationAttributes(AnnotatedElement, String, boolean, boolean) Get the first annotation of the specified {@code annotationName} within the annotation hierarchy above the supplied {@code element} and merge that annotation's attributes with matching attributes from annotations in lower levels of the annotation hierarchy.
 

Changed Methods
AnnotationAttributes getAnnotationAttributes(AnnotatedElement, String) Now deprecated.
As of Spring Framework 4.2, use {@link #getMergedAnnotationAttributes(AnnotatedElement, String)} instead.
