FilePatternResourceHintsRegistrar is not used anywhere in the Spring Framework code base, but it is used in Spring Boot.
We should consider moving FilePatternResourceHintsRegistrar to Spring Boot or improve the documentation to make it clear what use cases it's suited for.

I am not sure I understand that. Shouldn't we rather focus on whether this can be useful as a framework utility like plenty of others we don't use ourselves? I agree that the current code is a bit specific to one use case at the moment but I'd rather revisit this that if we can.

I think you might have missed the second half of the last sentence:
"or improve the documentation to make it clear what use cases it's suited for."

I didn't. I was expressing a vote for the second option while questioning the first.
Comment From: sbrannen
OK. If you think it's worth keeping the feature in Framework, we can change the title to focus on improving the documentation.

Hi, Is this still open? I'm new to open source contribution and would like to start with documentation. Thank you!
Comment From: snicoll
@Lalitha333 sorry, I missed that. Like any documentation request, this often turns out to be quite tricky and not really the right thing to get started.

Reopening due to a request from the Spring Boot team to introduce List<String> overrides of the new var-args methods used with the builder.
