| Trivial controller that always returns a named view. The view
can be configured using an exposed configuration property. This
controller offers an alternative to sending a request straight to a view
such as a JSP. The advantage here is that the client is not exposed to
the concrete view technology but rather just to the controller URL;
the concrete view will be determined by the ViewResolver.
Workflow
(and that defined by superclass):
- Render request is received by the controller
- call to
ParameterizableViewController.handleRenderRequestInternal handleRenderRequestInternal which
just returns the view, named by the configuration property
viewName. Nothing more, nothing less
This controller does not handle action requests.
Exposed configuration properties
(and those defined by superclass):
| name |
default |
description |
| viewName |
null |
the name of the view the viewResolver will use to forward to
(if this property is not set, an exception will be thrown during
initialization) |
