HttpServletResponse in spring controller

[Mr.Squirrel]

hello,

how can we access to "HttpServletResponse" in a spring controller ?

If you're using @Controller and @RequestMapping, you should be able to define it in your method's arguments. I've never done it, but it should work - you'll probably want your method to return void since you're handling the response that way.

@RequestMapping(value = "/", method = RequestMethod.GET)
public void home(Model model, HttpServletResponse response) {
...
}

In the Spring Framework Reference pdf, search for "Defining @RequestMapping handler methods"

[p792]

Have you try this and see if this work?

 
@RequestMapping(method = RequestMethod.POST)
public void submitForm(@ModelAttribute("test") TestDTO command,BindingResult result,ModelMap modelMap, SessionStatus status,HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response ) throws ServletRequestBindingException

[Mr.Squirrel]

thank you for the answer but i can't use @Controller and @RequestMapping in my controller

I have the message "the annotation @Controller is disallowed for this location".

What version of Spring are you using? Can you post some code?

[Mr.Squirrel]

i am using spring version=2.5.5

My controller :

public class AdminListeInscritController extends CommonController implements Serializable  {
    ...
    public AdminListeInscritController() {}
    ...
    @RequestMapping(value = "/", method = RequestMethod.GET)
    public void home(Model model, HttpServletResponse response) {
      ...
    }
    ...
  }

@RequestMapping generates this error message : "RequestMapping cannot be resolved to a type"

Can you do this

@Controller
public class AdminListeInscritController {

@RequestMapping(value = "/", method = RequestMethod.GET)
......

[Mr.Squirrel]

When i do that i have the message "@Controller cannot be resolved to a type"

Is that bean created after the application re-start? (using log to check)
You may need to have
<context:component-scan base-package="location.of.your.controller" />
or declare that bean in app-servlet.xml
Do you import this:
import org.springframework.stereotype.Controller;

[Mr.Squirrel]

the controller is created in the springConfiguration.xml file

<bean id="adminListeInscritController" class="fr.univNantes.sig.certif.controller.AdminListeInscritController" scope="request" parent="factorisationController">
		<constructor-arg>
			<ref bean="accesService"/>
		</constructor-arg>
</bean>

In the controller i solved the first error "Controller cannot be resolved to a type" by importing org.springframework.stereotype.Controller
But when i try to add the statment @RequestMapping(value = "/", method = RequestMethod.GET) i still have this error : "RequestMapping cannot be resolved to a type"
