FrameworkServlet does not need parent to be WebApplicationContext [SPR-6102]

[spring-projects-issues]

Dave Syer opened SPR-6102 and commented

FrameworkServlet does not need its parent to be WebApplicationContext, but the signature of createWebApplicationContext() mandates it. It would be a small change, but quite helpful to people embedding a servlet application (e.g. in a test) to allow that method to accept a plain ApplicationContext (as it says it does in the Javadocs)

Fixed. The method is now better aligned with FrameworkPortlet as well.
