Default formView for SimpleFormController?

When you do not specify The logical view name, Spring relies on DefaultRequestToViewNameTranslator which is installed by default . So if your request is something like.

Firstly I would like to say that I am quite new to Spring (in particular the MVC framework), and just trying to understand how everything works so please go easy on me. I'm playing around with a dummy application that I've created, and I've created a simple login form that users can access via the /login. Html bean.

The bean definition is as follows: (the Login class is a simple object containing a username and password field with appropriate getters and setters). The LoginController class does virtually nothing for now: public class LoginController extends SimpleFormController { @Override protected ModelAndView onSubmit(Object command, BindException errors) throws Exception { return new ModelAndView(new RedirectView(getSuccessView())); } } Now I have one view resolver in my bean definition file, which goes as follows: To support my Login form I have a login. Jsp file in my jsp directory.

My question is as follows: why does accessing /login. Html redirect me to login. Jsp?

I have not specified a formView property for my form, so how does the view resolver know to redirect me to login. Jsp? Thanks in advance for any help!

When you do not specify The logical view name, Spring relies on DefaultRequestToViewNameTranslator, which is installed by default. So if your request is something like http://127.0.0.1:8080/app/. Html Have you seen?

So if your request is http://127.0.0.1:8080/app/login. Html The logical name extracted by ViewNameTranslator is login which is supplied To viewResolver and Translated To /jsp/login. Jsp Nothing else.

Makes perfect sense - thanks! – Joseph Paterson Jul 20 '10 at 6:47.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
