public AbstractHandlerMethodAdapter()

Method Detail

setOrder

public void setOrder(int order)

Specify the order value for this HandlerAdapter bean.

Default value is Integer.MAX_VALUE, meaning that it's non-ordered.

See Also:

Ordered.getOrder()

getOrder

public int getOrder()

Description copied from interface: Ordered

Return the order value of this object, with a higher value meaning greater in terms of sorting.

Normally starting with 0, with Integer.MAX_VALUE indicating the greatest value. Same order values will result in arbitrary positions for the affected objects.

Higher values can be interpreted as lower priority. As a consequence, the object with the lowest value has highest priority (somewhat analogous to Servlet "load-on-startup" values).

Specified by:

getOrder in interface Ordered

Returns:

the order value

supports

public final boolean supports(Object handler)

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

A typical implementation:

return (handler instanceof MyHandler);

This implementation expects the handler to be an HandlerMethod.

Specified by:

supports in interface HandlerAdapter

Parameters:

handler - the handler instance to check

Returns:

whether or not this adapter can adapt the given handler

supportsInternal

protected abstract boolean supportsInternal(HandlerMethod handlerMethod)

Given a handler method, return whether or not this adapter can support it.

Parameters:

handlerMethod - the handler method to check

Returns:

whether or not this adapter can adapt the given method

handle

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

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

This implementation expects the handler to be an HandlerMethod.

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.

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

handleInternal

protected abstract ModelAndView handleInternal(HttpServletRequest request,
                          HttpServletResponse response,
                          HandlerMethod handlerMethod)
                                        throws Exception

Use the given handler method to handle the request.

Parameters:

request - current HTTP request

response - current HTTP response

handlerMethod - handler method to use. This object must have previously been passed to the supportsInternal(HandlerMethod) this interface, which must have returned true.

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 final long getLastModified(HttpServletRequest request,
                   Object handler)

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

This implementation expects the handler to be an HandlerMethod.

Specified by:

getLastModified in interface HandlerAdapter

Parameters:

request - current HTTP request

handler - handler to use

Returns:

the lastModified value for the given handler

See Also:

HttpServlet.getLastModified(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest), LastModified.getLastModified(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest)

getLastModifiedInternal

protected abstract long getLastModifiedInternal(HttpServletRequest request,
                           HandlerMethod handlerMethod)

Same contract as for HttpServlet.getLastModified(HttpServletRequest).

Parameters:

request - current HTTP request

handlerMethod - handler method to use

Returns:

the lastModified value for the given handler
