Method Detail

supportsReturnType

public boolean supportsReturnType(MethodParameter returnType)

Description copied from interface: HandlerMethodReturnValueHandler

Whether the given method return type is supported by this handler.

Specified by:

supportsReturnType in interface HandlerMethodReturnValueHandler

Parameters:

returnType - the method return type to check

Returns:

true if this handler supports the supplied return type; false otherwise

handleReturnValue

public void handleReturnValue(Object returnValue,
                              MethodParameter returnType,
                              ModelAndViewContainer mavContainer,
                              NativeWebRequest webRequest)
                       throws Exception

Description copied from interface: HandlerMethodReturnValueHandler

Handle the given return value by adding attributes to the model, setting the view (or view name), or by writing to the response. HandlerMethodReturnValueHandler implementations should also consider whether to set ModelAndViewContainer.setResolveView(boolean), which is set to true by default and therefore needs to be set to false explicitly if view resolution is to be bypassed.

Specified by:

handleReturnValue in interface HandlerMethodReturnValueHandler

Parameters:

returnValue - the value returned from the handler method

returnType - the type of the return value. This type must have previously been passed to HandlerMethodReturnValueHandler.supportsReturnType(org.springframework.core.MethodParameter) and it must have returned true

mavContainer - the ModelAndViewContainer for the current request

webRequest - the current request

Throws:

Exception - if the return value handling results in an error
