Use ViewResolver in Spring MVC

view resolver is a class in spring framework which allows us to configure urls dynamically
 
ctrl + shift + T to open type in eclipse, search *Viewresolver you will find InternalResourceViewResolver this class will do it automatically.
Make a bean of this class in mainController-servlet.xml file (In previous topics we have covered this topic).

<bean id="viewResolver" class="org.springframework.web.servlet.view.InternalResourceViewResolver">
<property name="prefix" value="/WEB-INF/views/"/>
<property name="suffix" value=".jsp"/>
</bean>

Now you donot need to pass the complete url in your controller method. You just need to pass the name of your view. Prefix and suffix will handle all the request.

code of Shop.java will be;
package first.controllers;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Controller;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMapping;
@Controller
public class Shop {

@RequestMapping("/shop")
public String visitShop() {
 return "shop";
}
}
 
This will return the view which is in /WEB-INF/views/shop.jsp  
hope you got the idea of ViewResolver.
Thanks and meet you soon with good topic ...........
Take care.
