public interface ViewResolver
View state doesn't change during the running of the application, so implementations are free to cache views.
Implementations are encouraged to support internationalization, i.e. localized view resolution.

View resolveViewName(String viewName, Locale locale) throws Exception
Note: To allow for ViewResolver chaining, a ViewResolver should
return null
if a view with the given name is not defined in it.
However, this is not required: Some ViewResolvers will always attempt
to build View objects with the given name, unable to return null
(rather throwing an exception when View creation failed).
viewName
- name of the view to resolvelocale
- Locale in which to resolve the view.
ViewResolvers that support internationalization should respect this.null

(typically in case of problems creating an actual View object)
