Class UrlBasedViewResolver

java.lang.Object
  org.springframework.context.support.ApplicationObjectSupport
      org.springframework.web.context.support.WebApplicationObjectSupport
          org.springframework.web.servlet.view.AbstractCachingViewResolver
              org.springframework.web.servlet.view.UrlBasedViewResolver

All Implemented Interfaces:: ApplicationContextAware, ViewResolver

Direct Known Subclasses:: AbstractTemplateViewResolver, InternalResourceViewResolver, JasperReportsViewResolver

public class UrlBasedViewResolver
extends AbstractCachingViewResolver
extends AbstractCachingViewResolver

Simple implementation of ViewResolver that allows for direct resolution of symbolic view names to URLs, without explicit mapping definition. This is appropriate if your symbolic names match the names of your view resources in a straightforward manner, without the need for arbitrary mappings.

Supports AbstractUrlBasedView subclasses like InternalResourceView, VelocityView and FreeMarkerView. The view class for all views generated by this resolver can be specified via the "viewClass" property.

View names can either be resource URLs themselves, or get augmented by a specified prefix and/or suffix. Exporting an attribute that holds the RequestContext to all views is explicitly supported.

Example: prefix="/WEB-INF/jsp/", suffix=".jsp", viewname="test" -> "/WEB-INF/jsp/test.jsp"

As a special feature, redirect URLs can be specified via the "redirect:" prefix. E.g.: "redirect:myAction.do" will trigger a redirect to the given URL, rather than resolution as standard view name. This is typically used for redirecting to a controller URL after finishing a form workflow.

Furthermore, forward URLs can be specified via the "forward:" prefix. E.g.: "forward:myAction.do" will trigger a forward to the given URL, rather than resolution as standard view name. This is typically used for controller URLs; it is not supposed to be used for JSP URLs - use logical view names there.

Note: This class does not support localized resolution, i.e. resolving a symbolic view name to different resources depending on the current locale.

Note: When chaining ViewResolvers, a UrlBasedViewResolver always needs to be last, as it will attempt to resolve any view name, no matter whether the underlying resource actually exists.

Field Detail

REDIRECT_URL_PREFIX

public static final String REDIRECT_URL_PREFIX

Prefix for special view names that specify a redirect URL (usually to a controller after a form has been submitted and processed). Such view names will not be resolved in the configured default way but rather be treated as special shortcut.

See Also:: Constant Field Values

FORWARD_URL_PREFIX

public static final String FORWARD_URL_PREFIX

Prefix for special view names that specify a forward URL (usually to a controller after a form has been submitted and processed). Such view names will not be resolved in the configured default way but rather be treated as special shortcut.

See Also:: Constant Field Values

Constructor Detail

UrlBasedViewResolver

public UrlBasedViewResolver()

Method Detail

setViewClass

public void setViewClass(Class viewClass)

Set the view class that should be used to create views.

Parameters:: viewClass - class that is assignable to the required view class (by default, AbstractUrlBasedView)
See Also:: AbstractUrlBasedView

getViewClass

protected Class getViewClass()

Return the view class to be used to create views.

requiredViewClass

protected Class requiredViewClass()

Return the required type of view for this resolver. This implementation returns AbstractUrlBasedView.

See Also:: AbstractUrlBasedView

setPrefix

public void setPrefix(String prefix)

Set the prefix that gets prepended to view names when building a URL.

getPrefix

protected String getPrefix()

Return the prefix that gets prepended to view names when building a URL.

setSuffix

public void setSuffix(String suffix)

Set the suffix that gets appended to view names when building a URL.

getSuffix

protected String getSuffix()

Return the suffix that gets appended to view names when building a URL.

setContentType

public void setContentType(String contentType)

Set the content type for all views.

May be ignored by view classes if the view itself is assumed to set the content type, e.g. in case of JSPs.

getContentType

protected String getContentType()

Return the content type for all views, if any.

setRedirectContextRelative

public void setRedirectContextRelative(boolean redirectContextRelative)

Set whether to interpret a given redirect URL that starts with a slash ("/") as relative to the current ServletContext, i.e. as relative to the web application root.

Default is "true": A redirect URL that starts with a slash will be interpreted as relative to the web application root, i.e. the context path will be prepended to the URL.

Redirect URLs can be specified via the "redirect:" prefix. E.g.: "redirect:myAction.do"

See Also:: RedirectView.setContextRelative(boolean), REDIRECT_URL_PREFIX

isRedirectContextRelative

protected boolean isRedirectContextRelative()

Return whether to interpret a given redirect URL that starts with a slash ("/") as relative to the current ServletContext, i.e. as relative to the web application root.

setRedirectHttp10Compatible

public void setRedirectHttp10Compatible(boolean redirectHttp10Compatible)

Set whether redirects should stay compatible with HTTP 1.0 clients.

In the default implementation, this will enforce HTTP status code 302 in any case, i.e. delegate to HttpServletResponse.sendRedirect. Turning this off will send HTTP status code 303, which is the correct code for HTTP 1.1 clients, but not understood by HTTP 1.0 clients.

Many HTTP 1.1 clients treat 302 just like 303, not making any difference. However, some clients depend on 303 when redirecting after a POST request; turn this flag off in such a scenario.

Redirect URLs can be specified via the "redirect:" prefix. E.g.: "redirect:myAction.do"

See Also:: RedirectView.setHttp10Compatible(boolean), REDIRECT_URL_PREFIX

isRedirectHttp10Compatible

protected boolean isRedirectHttp10Compatible()

Return whether redirects should stay compatible with HTTP 1.0 clients.

setRequestContextAttribute

public void setRequestContextAttribute(String requestContextAttribute)

Set the name of the RequestContext attribute for all views.

Parameters:: requestContextAttribute - name of the RequestContext attribute
See Also:: AbstractView.setRequestContextAttribute(java.lang.String)

getRequestContextAttribute

protected String getRequestContextAttribute()

Return the name of the RequestContext attribute for all views, if any.

setAttributes

public void setAttributes(Properties props)

Set static attributes from a java.util.Properties object, for all views returned by this resolver.

This is the most convenient way to set static attributes. Note that static attributes can be overridden by dynamic attributes, if a value with the same name is included in the model.

Can be populated with a String "value" (parsed via PropertiesEditor) or a "props" element in XML bean definitions.

See Also:: PropertiesEditor, AbstractView.setAttributes(java.util.Properties)

setAttributesMap

public void setAttributesMap(Map attributes)

Set static attributes from a Map, for all views returned by this resolver. This allows to set any kind of attribute values, for example bean references.

Can be populated with a "map" or "props" element in XML bean definitions.

Parameters:: attributes - Map with name Strings as keys and attribute objects as values
See Also:: AbstractView.setAttributesMap(java.util.Map)

getAttributesMap

public Map getAttributesMap()

Allow Map access to the static attributes for views returned by this resolver, with the option to add or override specific entries.

Useful for specifying entries directly, for example via "attributesMap[myKey]". This is particularly useful for adding or overriding entries in child view definitions.

initApplicationContext

protected void initApplicationContext()

Description copied from class: ApplicationObjectSupport

Subclasses can override this for custom initialization behavior. Gets called by setApplicationContext after setting the context instance.

Note: Does not get called on reinitialization of the context but rather just on first initialization of this object's context reference.

Overrides:: initApplicationContext in class ApplicationObjectSupport

See Also:: ApplicationObjectSupport.setApplicationContext(org.springframework.context.ApplicationContext)

getCacheKey

protected String getCacheKey(String viewName,
                             Locale locale)

This implementation returns just the view name, as this ViewResolver doesn't support localized resolution.

Overrides:: getCacheKey in class AbstractCachingViewResolver

createView

protected View createView(String viewName,
                          Locale locale)
                   throws Exception

Overridden to implement check for "redirect:" prefix.

Not possible in loadView, as overridden loadView versions in subclasses might rely on the superclass always creating instances of the required view class.

Overrides:: createView in class AbstractCachingViewResolver

Parameters:: viewName - the name of the view to retrieve; locale - the Locale to retrieve the view for
Returns:: the View instance, or null if not found (optional, to allow for ViewResolver chaining)
Throws:: Exception - if the view couldn't be resolved
See Also:: loadView(java.lang.String, java.util.Locale), requiredViewClass()

loadView

protected View loadView(String viewName,
                        Locale locale)
                 throws Exception

Delegates to buildView for creating a new instance of the specified view class, and applies the following Spring lifecycle methods (as supported by the generic Spring bean factory):

ApplicationContextAware's setApplicationContext
InitializingBean's afterPropertiesSet

Specified by:: loadView in class AbstractCachingViewResolver

Parameters:: viewName - the name of the view to retrieve; locale - the Locale to retrieve the view for
Returns:: the View instance, or null if not found (optional, to allow for ViewResolver chaining)
Throws:: Exception - if the view couldn't be resolved
See Also:: buildView(String), ApplicationContextAware.setApplicationContext(org.springframework.context.ApplicationContext), InitializingBean.afterPropertiesSet()

buildView

protected AbstractUrlBasedView buildView(String viewName)
                                  throws Exception

Creates a new View instance of the specified view class and configures it. Does not perform any lookup for pre-defined View instances.

Spring lifecycle methods as defined by the bean container do not have to be called here; those will be applied by the loadView method after this method returns.

Subclasses will typically call super.buildView(viewName) first, before setting further properties themselves. loadView will then apply Spring lifecycle methods at the end of this process.

Throws:: Exception
See Also:: loadView(String, java.util.Locale)
