Spring AMQP 3.2 Goes GA and 3.1.8 Available

On behalf of the team and everyone who contributed, I am pleased to announce the General Availability for Spring AMQP 3.2 generation. It can be used directly from Maven Central and will be included into upcoming Spring Boot 3.4.

The version 3.1.8 includes some bug fixes and dependency updates. This is the last Open Source version. From now on fixes into 3.1.x generation will be available only via commercial support.

Some notable changes in 3.2 release:

• The server side retry logic (manual DLX) has been improved for a new retry-count header to make Spring AMQP compatible with recently released RabbitMQ 4.0.x.

The MessageProperties.incrementRetryCount() has to be called before re-publishing message to DLX. The previous logic based on the x-death header does not work anymore since RabbitMQ 4.0.x ignored any x-* headers sent from the client;

• More Open Telemetry semantic tags are exposed via Rabbit Listener and Template observations;
• The Consistent Hash exchange declaration API.

See more info in the Release Notes.

Many thanks to community for feedback and prompt fixes!

Next year we are going to concentrate on new 4.0 generation.

Cheers, 
Artem
