Spring MVC - Resource Bundle View Resolver Example

The ResourceBundleViewResolver is used to resolve the view names using view beans defined in the properties file. The following example shows how to use the ResourceBundleViewResolver using the Spring Web MVC Framework.

TestWeb-servlet.xml

<bean class = "org.springframework.web.servlet.view.ResourceBundleViewResolver">
   <property name = "basename" value = "views" />
</bean>

Here, the basename refers to name of the resource bundle, which carries the views. The default name of the resource bundle is views.properties, which can be overridden using the basename property.

views.properties

hello.(class) = org.springframework.web.servlet.view.JstlView
hello.url = /WEB-INF/jsp/hello.jsp

For example, using the above configuration, if URI −

/hello is requested, DispatcherServlet will forward the request to the hello.jsp defined by bean hello in the views.properties.

Here, "hello" is the view name to be matched. Whereas, class refers to the view type and URL is the view s location.

To start with, let us have a working Ecppse IDE in place and consider the following steps to develop a Dynamic Form based Web Apppcation using Spring Web Framework.

Step	Description
1	Create a project with a name TestWeb under a package com.tutorialspoint as explained in the Spring MVC - Hello World chapter.
2	Create a Java class HelloController under the com.tutorialspointpackage.
3	Create a view file hello.jsp under the jsp sub-folder.
4	Create a properties file views.properties under the src folder.
5	Download JSTL pbrary jstl.jar. Put it in your CLASSPATH.
6	The final step is to create the content of the source and configuration files and export the apppcation as explained below.

HelloController.java

package com.tutorialspoint;

import org.springframework.stereotype.Controller;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMapping;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMethod;
import org.springframework.ui.ModelMap;

@Controller
@RequestMapping("/hello")
pubpc class HelloController{
 
   @RequestMapping(method = RequestMethod.GET)
   pubpc String printHello(ModelMap model) {
      model.addAttribute("message", "Hello Spring MVC Framework!");

      return "hello";
   }

}

TestWeb-servlet.xml

<beans xmlns = "http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
   xmlns:context = "http://www.springframework.org/schema/context"
   xmlns:xsi = "http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
   xsi:schemaLocation = "
   http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans     
   http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans-3.0.xsd
   http://www.springframework.org/schema/context 
   http://www.springframework.org/schema/context/spring-context-3.0.xsd">

   <context:component-scan base-package = "com.tutorialspoint" />

   <bean class = "org.springframework.web.servlet.view.ResourceBundleViewResolver">
      <property name = "basename" value = "views" />
   </bean>
</beans>

views.properties

hello.(class) = org.springframework.web.servlet.view.JstlView
hello.url = /WEB-INF/jsp/hello.jsp

hello.jsp

<%@ page contentType="text/html; charset=UTF-8" %>
<html>
   <head>
      <title>Hello World</title>
   </head>
   <body>
      <h2>${message}</h2>
   </body>
</html>

Once you are done with creating source and configuration files, export your apppcation. Right cpck on your apppcation, use Export → WAR File option and save your HelloWeb.war file in Tomcat s webapps folder.

Now, start your Tomcat server and make sure you are able to access other webpages from the webapps folder using a standard browser. Try to access the URL − http://localhost:8080/HelloWeb/hello and if everything is fine with the Spring Web Apppcation, we will see the following screen.
