public class ContentNegotiatingViewResolver extends WebApplicationObjectSupport implements ViewResolver, Ordered, InitializingBean
ViewResolver
that resolves a view based on the request file name
or Accept
header.
The ContentNegotiatingViewResolver
does not resolve views itself, but delegates to
other ViewResolver
s. By default, these other view resolvers are picked up automatically
from the application context, though they can also be set explicitly by using the
viewResolvers
property. Note that in order for this
view resolver to work properly, the order
property needs to be set to a higher
precedence than the others (the default is Ordered.HIGHEST_PRECEDENCE
).
This view resolver uses the requested media type to select a suitable
View
for a request. The requested media type is determined through the configured
ContentNegotiationManager
. Once the requested media type has been determined, this resolver
queries each delegate view resolver for a View
and determines if the requested media type
is compatible with the view's
content type). The most compatible view is returned.
Additionally, this view resolver exposes the defaultViews
property,
allowing you to override the views provided by the view resolvers. Note that these default views are
offered as candidates, and still need have the content type requested (via file extension, parameter,
or Accept
header, described above).
For example, if the request path is /view.html
, this view resolver will look for a view
that has the text/html
content type (based on the html
file extension). A request
for /view
with a text/html
request Accept
header has the same result.

Ordered
Higher values are interpreted as lower priority. As a consequence,
the object with the lowest value has the highest priority (somewhat
analogous to Servlet load-on-startup
values).
Same order values will result in arbitrary sort positions for the affected objects.

to use to determine requested media types.
If not set, ContentNegotiationManager's default constructor will be used,
applying a HeaderContentNegotiationStrategy
.
public void setUseNotAcceptableStatusCode(boolean useNotAcceptableStatusCode)
406 Not Acceptable
status code should be returned if no suitable view can be found.
Default is false
, meaning that this view resolver returns null
for
resolveViewName(String, Locale)
when an acceptable view cannot be found.
This will allow for view resolvers chaining. When this property is set to true
,
resolveViewName(String, Locale)
will respond with a view that sets the
response status to 406 Not Acceptable
instead.

InitializingBean
This 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.

ViewResolver
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).
