All Implemented Interfaces:

public class BeanNameUrlHandlerMapping
extends AbstractUrlHandlerMapping

Implementation of the HandlerMapping interface to map from URLs to beans with names that start with a slash ("/"), similar to how Struts maps URLs to action names. This is the default implementation used by the DispatcherServlet, but somewhat naive. A SimpleUrlHandlerMapping or a custom handler mapping should be used by preference.

The mapping is from URL to bean name. Thus an incoming URL "/foo" would map to a handler named "/foo", or to "/foo /foo2" in case of multiple mappings to a single handler. Note: In XML definitions, you'll need to use an alias name="/foo" in the bean definition, as the XML id may not contain slashes.

Supports direct matches (given "/test" -> registered "/test") and "*" matches (given "/test" -> registered "/t*"). Note that the default is to map within the current servlet mapping if applicable; see alwaysUseFullPath property for details.

Method Detail

initApplicationContext

public void initApplicationContext()
                            throws ApplicationContextException

Calls the detectHandlers() method in addition to the superclass's initialization.

Overrides:

initApplicationContext in class AbstractHandlerMapping

Throws:

ApplicationContextException - in case of initialization errors

See Also:

detectHandlers()

detectHandlers

protected void detectHandlers()
                       throws BeansException

Register all handlers found in the current ApplicationContext. Any bean whose name appears to be a URL is considered a handler.

Throws:

BeansException - if the handler couldn't be registered

See Also:

determineUrlsForHandler(java.lang.String)

determineUrlsForHandler

protected String[] determineUrlsForHandler(String beanName)

Check name and aliases of the given bean for URLs, detected by starting with "/".

Parameters:

beanName - the name of the candidate bean

Returns:

the URLs determined for the bean, or an empty array if none
