public class ResourceHttpRequestHandler extends WebContentGenerator implements HttpRequestHandler, InitializingBean
HttpRequestHandler that serves static resources optimized for superior browser performance
(according to the guidelines of Page Speed, YSlow, etc.) by allowing for flexible cache settings
("cacheSeconds" property, last-modified support).
The "locations" property takes a list of Spring Resource locations
from which static resources are allowed to be served by this handler. For a given request, the
list of locations will be consulted in order for the presence of the requested resource, and the
first found match will be written to the response, with Expires and Cache-Control
headers set as configured. The handler also properly evaluates the Last-Modified header
(if present) so that a 304 status code will be returned as appropriate, avoiding unnecessary
overhead for resources that are already cached by the client. The use of Resource locations
allows resource requests to easily be mapped to locations other than the web application root. For
example, resources could be served from a classpath location such as "classpath:/META-INF/public-web-resources/",
allowing convenient packaging and serving of resources such as a JavaScript library from within jar files.
To ensure that users with a primed browser cache get the latest changes to application-specific resources upon deployment of new versions of the application, it is recommended that a version string is used in the URL mapping pattern that selects this handler. Such patterns can be easily parameterized using Spring EL. See the reference manual for further examples of this approach.
Rather than being directly configured as a bean, this handler will typically be configured
through use of the <mvc:resources/> XML configuration element.

InitializingBeanThis method allows the bean instance to perform initialization only possible when all bean properties have been set and to throw an exception in the event of misconfiguration.

Checks for the existence of the requested resource in the configured list of locations.
If the resource does not exist, a 404 response will be returned to the client.
If the resource exists, the request will be checked for the presence of the
Last-Modified header, and its value will be compared against the last-modified
timestamp of the given resource, returning a 304 status code if the
Last-Modified value is greater. If the resource is newer than the
Last-Modified value, or the header is not present, the content resource
of the resource will be written to the response with caching headers
set to expire one year in the future.

The default implementation replaces any combination of leading '/' and

" // /// //// foo/bar" becomes "/foo/bar".
