Spring Live 1.5 was released in early July 2005. The major feature in this release is the addition of Chapter 13 - which is titled Advanced Form Processing and covers nested objects, data binding, indexed properties, AbstractWizardFormController and Spring Web Flow. This release also updates Chapters 4 - 6 to be up-to-date for Spring 1.2. As part of this release (and future releases), we've put together a PDF that contains all the code listings in the book. Unlike the normal PDF, you are allowed to copy and paste from this version.

The list below contains all of the additional updates included in this release.
