How does Spring MVC controllers perform method resolution when a form is submitted?

[balteo]

Hello,

I have a Spring MVC form in jsp and I am having trouble getting the controller method invoked.

Can someone please explain to me the mechanism whereby Spring MVC performs controller method execution?

Regards,

J.

There is no difference between a GET and a POST (assuming you are using annotation based controllers).

Thanks for the reply Marten.
I should rather rephrase my question thus: if I have a request mapping as follows:

@RequestMapping("/performSearch")

What do I need in the jsp form in order for this method to be called?

Will this suffice?

<form:form>
...

Or do I need this?

<form:form action="performSearch">
...

Regards,
Julien.
