public class UrlFilenameViewController
extends AbstractController

Controller that transforms the virtual filename at the end of a URL into a view name and returns that view. Can optionally prepend a prefix and/or append a suffix to build the viewname from the URL filename.

Example: "/index" -> "index" Example: "/index.html" -> "index" Example: "/index.html" + prefix "pre_" and suffix "_suf" -> "pre_index_suf".

Thanks to David Barri for suggesting prefix/suffix support!
