Spingframework MVC set up servlet.xml

This is springframework MVC servlet.xml for WEB developers.

I hope it helps you, it is brief though.

It is tested in Spring 3.1 and 3.1.1 version.

context:component-scan : It will scan your java class package. which is coded in spring annotation based.

It has several ViewResolver as you see.

ContentNegotiatingViewResolver : It will show json result.if you want you can put xml,rss result view in ContentNegotiatingViewResolver.

InternalResourceViewResolver: It will show your jsp page.

SimpleUrlHandlerMapping : It will be handle if spring doesn't find any RequestMapping from Controller, the request will get to UrlFilenameViewController. it will resolve jsp file that is under /WEB-INF/jsp directory. so you don't have to make empty controller for each request mapping that doesn't have any logic.

I am sure it will trigger more curiosity if you are interested.
