Spring Framework

previous

Features of Spring:

• Clear separation of roles – controller, validator, command object, form object, model object, Dispatcher Servlet, handler mapping, view resolver etc. separate objects for each role.

• Powerful and straightforward configuration, easy referencing across contexts of both framework and application classes as beans.

• Separate controllers for different scenarios – plain, form, wizard, simple, multiaction.

• Customizable binding and validation – binding of any object is possible along with validation after submission of form.

• Customizable handler/controller mapping and view resolver – can handle simple requests via URLs or even can intercept a URL, and view resolvers help to locate the actual path of views.

• Map model transfer – transfer of any number of objects is possible via model object, no need to set them as request attributes.

• Supports Theme and JSTL tags with or without Spring tags.
