    • buildView

      protected AbstractUrlBasedView buildView(String viewName) throws Exception
      Description copied from class: UrlBasedViewResolver
      Creates a new View instance of the specified view class and configures it. Does not perform any lookup for pre-defined View instances.

      Spring lifecycle methods as defined by the bean container do not have to be called here; those will be applied by the loadView method after this method returns.

      Subclasses will typically call super.buildView(viewName) first, before setting further properties themselves. loadView will then apply Spring lifecycle methods at the end of this process.

      Overrides:
      buildView in class UrlBasedViewResolver
      Parameters:
      viewName - the name of the view to build
      Returns:
      the View instance
      Throws:
      Exception - if the view couldn't be resolved
