Method Detail

supports

public boolean supports(Object handler)

Description copied from interface: HandlerAdapter

Given a handler instance, return whether or not this HandlerAdapter can support it. Usually HandlerAdapters will base the decision on the handler type. HandlerAdapters will normally support only one handler type.

A typical implementation:

return handler != null && MyHandler.class.isAssignableFrom(handler.getClass());

Specified by:

supports in interface HandlerAdapter

Parameters:

handler - handler object to check

Returns:

whether or not this object can use the given handler

handle

public ModelAndView handle(HttpServletRequest request,
                           HttpServletResponse response,
                           Object handler)
                    throws Exception

Description copied from interface: HandlerAdapter

Use the given handler to handle this request. The workflow that is required may vary widely.

Specified by:

handle in interface HandlerAdapter

Parameters:

request - current HTTP request

response - current HTTP response

handler - handler to use. This object must have previously been passed to the supports() method of this interface, which must have returned true. Implementations that generate output themselves (and return null from this method) may encounter IOExceptions.

Returns:

ModelAndView object with the name of the view and the required model data, or null if the request has been handled directly

Throws:

Exception - in case of errors

getLastModified

public long getLastModified(HttpServletRequest request,
                            Object handler)

Description copied from interface: HandlerAdapter

Same contract as for HttpServlet.getLastModified. Can simply return -1 if there's no support in the handler class.

Specified by:

getLastModified in interface HandlerAdapter

Parameters:

request - current HTTP request

handler - handler to use

Returns:

the lastModified value for the given handler
