Exactly URI pattern matching

[swwis_me]

Hi,
I’m using Spring 3.0 to rewrite existing application. However, I’m having some problems with appropriate handler mappings.
I have defined the following controllers:

@Controller
public class CarsController {
	@RequestMapping("/cars")
	public void handleRequest(Model model, HttpServletRequest r) throws Exception {
		..
	}
}
@Controller
public class CarDetailsController {
	@RequestMapping("/cars/{id}_{model}")
	public void handleRequest(Model model, HttpServletRequest r) throws Exception {
		..
	}
}

applicationContext-mvc.xml (used by web.xml, DispatcherServlet):

	<context:component-scan base-package="org.xxx.*" />
	<mvc:annotation-driven />

The problem is that I want CarsController to handle ONLY this url "/cars", without those mappings : [/cars.*] , [/cars/]
The other mappings matching ONLY this pattern /cars/{id}_{model} should be handled by CarDetailsController.

I would really appreciate any help that can help me to configure controllers to handle only given pattern.

Regards,
Michal

You need to annotate the CarsController at the class level.

See here for more details: http://static.springsource.org/sprin...pping-advanced

@Controller
@RequestMapping("/cars")
public class CarsController {
	@RequestMapping("/")
	public void handleRequest(Model model, HttpServletRequest r) throws Exception {
		..
	}
}

And then annotate CarDetailsController agian at the class level

@Controller
@RequestMapping("/cars/{id}_{model}")
public class CarDetailsController {
	@RequestMapping("/")
	public void handleRequest(Model model, HttpServletRequest r, @PathVariable String id, @PathVariable String model) throws Exception {
		..
	}
}
