/**
* Plain handler interface for components that process HTTP requests,
* analogous to a Servlet. Only declares {@link javax.servlet.ServletException}
* and {@link java.io.IOException}, to allow for usage within any
* {@link javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet}. This interface is essentially the
* direct equivalent of an HttpServlet, reduced to a central handle method.
*
* The easiest way to expose an HttpRequestHandler bean in Spring style
* is to define it in Spring's root web application context and define
* an {@link org.springframework.web.context.support.HttpRequestHandlerServlet}
* in {@code web.xml}, pointing to the target HttpRequestHandler bean
* through its {@code servlet-name} which needs to match the target bean name.
*
*
Supported as a handler type within Spring's
* {@link org.springframework.web.servlet.DispatcherServlet}, being able
* to interact with the dispatcher's advanced mapping and interception
* facilities. This is the recommended way of exposing an HttpRequestHandler,
* while keeping the handler implementations free of direct dependencies
* on a DispatcherServlet environment.
*
*
Typically implemented to generate binary responses directly,
* with no separate view resource involved. This differentiates it from a
* {@link org.springframework.web.servlet.mvc.Controller} within Spring's Web MVC
* framework. The lack of a {@link org.springframework.web.servlet.ModelAndView}
* return value gives a clearer signature to callers other than the
* DispatcherServlet, indicating that there will never be a view to render.
*
*
As of Spring 2.0, Spring's HTTP-based remote exporters, such as
* {@link org.springframework.remoting.httpinvoker.HttpInvokerServiceExporter}
* and {@link org.springframework.remoting.caucho.HessianServiceExporter},
* implement this interface rather than the more extensive Controller interface,
* for minimal dependencies on Spring-specific web infrastructure.
*
*
Note that HttpRequestHandlers may optionally implement the
* {@link org.springframework.web.servlet.mvc.LastModified} interface,
* just like Controllers can, provided that they run within Spring's
* DispatcherServlet. However, this is usually not necessary, since
* HttpRequestHandlers typically only support POST requests to begin with.
* Alternatively, a handler may implement the "If-Modified-Since" HTTP
* header processing manually within its {@code handle} method.
