/**
 * {@link org.springframework.web.servlet.mvc.Controller Controller}
 * implementation that allows multiple request types to be handled by the same
 * class. Subclasses of this class can handle several different types of
 * request with methods of the form
 *
 * 
public (ModelAndView | Map | String | void) actionName(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response, [,HttpSession] [,AnyObject]);
* * A Map return value indicates a model that is supposed to be passed to a default view * (determined through a {@link org.springframework.web.servlet.RequestToViewNameTranslator}). * A String return value indicates the name of a view to be rendered without a specific model. * *

May take a third parameter (of type {@link HttpSession}) in which an * existing session will be required, or a third parameter of an arbitrary * class that gets treated as the command (that is, an instance of the class * gets created, and request parameters get bound to it) * *

These methods can throw any kind of exception, but should only let * propagate those that they consider fatal, or which their class or superclass * is prepared to catch by implementing an exception handler. * *

When returning just a {@link Map} instance view name translation will be * used to generate the view name. The configured * {@link org.springframework.web.servlet.RequestToViewNameTranslator} will be * used to determine the view name. * *

When returning {@code void} a return value of {@code null} is * assumed meaning that the handler method is responsible for writing the * response directly to the supplied {@link HttpServletResponse}. * *

This model allows for rapid coding, but loses the advantage of * compile-time checking. It is similar to a Struts {@code DispatchAction}, * but more sophisticated. Also supports delegation to another object. * *

An implementation of the {@link MethodNameResolver} interface defined in * this package should return a method name for a given request, based on any * aspect of the request, such as its URL or an "action" parameter. The actual * strategy can be configured via the "methodNameResolver" bean property, for * each {@code MultiActionController}. * *

The default {@code MethodNameResolver} is * {@link InternalPathMethodNameResolver}; further included strategies are * {@link PropertiesMethodNameResolver} and {@link ParameterMethodNameResolver}. * *

Subclasses can implement custom exception handler methods with names such * as: * *

public ModelAndView anyMeaningfulName(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response, ExceptionClass exception);
* * The third parameter can be any subclass or {@link Exception} or * {@link RuntimeException}. * *

There can also be an optional {@code xxxLastModified} method for * handlers, of signature: * *

public long anyMeaningfulNameLastModified(HttpServletRequest request)
* * If such a method is present, it will be invoked. Default return from * {@code getLastModified} is -1, meaning that the content must always be * regenerated. * *

Note that all handler methods need to be public and that * method overloading is not allowed. * *

See also the description of the workflow performed by * {@link AbstractController the superclass} (in that section of the class * level Javadoc entitled 'workflow'). * *

Note: For maximum data binding flexibility, consider direct usage of a * {@link ServletRequestDataBinder} in your controller method, instead of relying * on a declared command argument. This allows for full control over the entire * binder setup and usage, including the invocation of {@link Validator Validators} * and the subsequent evaluation of binding/validation errors. * * @author Rod Johnson * @author Juergen Hoeller * @author Colin Sampaleanu * @author Rob Harrop * @author Sam Brannen * @see MethodNameResolver * @see InternalPathMethodNameResolver * @see PropertiesMethodNameResolver * @see ParameterMethodNameResolver * @see org.springframework.web.servlet.mvc.LastModified#getLastModified * @see org.springframework.web.bind.ServletRequestDataBinder */ public class MultiActionController extends AbstractController implements LastModified { /** Suffix for last-modified methods */ public static final String LAST_MODIFIED_METHOD_SUFFIX = "LastModified"; /** Default command name used for binding command objects: "command" */ public static final String DEFAULT_COMMAND_NAME = "command"; /** * Log category to use when no mapped handler is found for a request. * @see #pageNotFoundLogger */ public static final String PAGE_NOT_FOUND_LOG_CATEGORY = "org.springframework.web.servlet.PageNotFound"; /** * Additional logger to use when no mapped handler is found for a request. * @see #PAGE_NOT_FOUND_LOG_CATEGORY */ protected static final Log pageNotFoundLogger = LogFactory.getLog(PAGE_NOT_FOUND_LOG_CATEGORY); /** Object we'll invoke methods on.
