Description

Drop Spring Boot 2.x support as it reached EOL a while ago (November 24, 2023)

Setting the option useSpringBoot3 to false will get you Spring Boot 2.x (and it may work) but there's no guarantee it will work moving forward. (eventually the useSpringBoot3 option will be deprecated)

Please reply below to let us know if you've any concern/question.
