| Annotation that binds a method parameter or method return value
to a named model attribute, exposed to a web view. Supported
for
RequestMapping annotated handler classes.
Can be used to expose command objects to a web view, using
specific attribute names, through annotating corresponding
parameters of a
RequestMapping annotated handler method).
Can also be used to expose reference data to a web view
through annotating accessor methods in a controller class which
is based on
RequestMapping annotated handler methods,
with such accessor methods allowed to have any arguments that
RequestMapping supports for handler methods, returning
the model attribute value to expose.
