面试官：小伙汁，你画的SpringMVC请求处理过程是从网上抄的吧？

前言

SpringMVC请求处理相信大家都很熟悉了，本篇主要是基于SpringMVC处理请求的流程来阅读并调试源码，以及解决几个仅靠流程图无法解释的问题。

本篇使用的Spring版本为5.2.2.RELEASE

九大组件

SpringMVC几乎所有的功能都由九大组件来完成，所以明白九大组件的作用，对于学习SpringMVC来说非常重要。

/** 文件上传解析器 */
private MultipartResolver multipartResolver;

/** 区域解析器，用于国际化 */
private LocaleResolver localeResolver;

/** 主题解析器 */
private ThemeResolver themeResolver;

/** Handler映射信息 */
private List<HandlerMapping> handlerMappings;

/** Handler适配器*/
private List<HandlerAdapter> handlerAdapters;

/** Handler执行异常解析器 */
private List<HandlerExceptionResolver> handlerExceptionResolvers;

/** 请求到视图的转换器 */
private RequestToViewNameTranslator viewNameTranslator;

/** SpringMVC允许重定向时携带参数，存在session中，用完就销毁，所以叫FlashMap */
private FlashMapManager flashMapManager;

/** 视图解析器 */
private List<ViewResolver> viewResolvers;

• HandlerMapping：Handler映射信息，根据请求携带的url信息查找处理器（Handler）。每个请求都需要对应的Handler处理。
• HandlerAdapter：Handler适配器，SpringMVC没有直接调用处理器（Handler），而是通过HandlerAdapter来调用，主要是为了统一Handler的调用方式
• ViewResolver：视图解析器，用来将字符串类型的视图名称解析为View类型的视图。ViewResolver需要找到渲染所用的模板和所用的技术（也就是视图的类型）进行渲染，具体的渲染过程则交由不同的视图自己完成。
• MultipartResolver：文件上传解析器，主要用来处理文件上传请求
• HandlerExceptionResolver：Handler执行异常解析器，用来对异常进行统一处理
• RequestToViewNameTranslator：请求到视图的转换器
• LocaleResolver：区域解析器，用于支持国际化
• FlashMapManager：SpringMVC允许重定向时携带参数，存在session中，用完就销毁，所以叫FlashMap
• ThemeResolver：主题解析器，用于支持不同的主题

九大组件中最重的的前三个，HandlerMapping、HandlerAdapter和ViewResolver，因为这是阅读源码时，避不开的三个组件。

调试准备

搭建一个基本的Spring web项目即可

Controller部分

@Controller
public class IndexController {

    @RequestMapping("/index/home")
    public String home(String id, Student student, @RequestParam("code") String code) {
        System.out.println(student.getName());
        return "index";
    }

    @ResponseBody
    @RequestMapping("/index/list")
    public String list() {
        return "success";
    }
}

Entity部分

public class Student {

    private String name;
    private Integer gender;

   // getter、setter
}

还是那句话，Spring源码非常庞大，不能只见树木不见森林，需要有针对性的阅读，所以本篇只需要关注主体流程即可。

核心方法

我们都知道，SpringMVC有一个用来分发请求的前端控制器DispatcherServlet，其中用来处理请求的方法就是doService，该方法定义如下

doService

/**
 * Exposes the DispatcherServlet-specific request attributes and delegates to {@link #doDispatch}
 * for the actual dispatching.
 */
@Override
protected void doService(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws Exception {
	logRequest(request);

	// Keep a snapshot of the request attributes in case of an include,
	// to be able to restore the original attributes after the include.
	Map<String, Object> attributesSnapshot = null;
	if (WebUtils.isIncludeRequest(request)) {
		attributesSnapshot = new HashMap<>();
		Enumeration<?> attrNames = request.getAttributeNames();
		while (attrNames.hasMoreElements()) {
			String attrName = (String) attrNames.nextElement();
			if (this.cleanupAfterInclude || attrName.startsWith(DEFAULT_STRATEGIES_PREFIX)) {
				attributesSnapshot.put(attrName, request.getAttribute(attrName));
			}
		}
	}

	// Make framework objects available to handlers and view objects.
	request.setAttribute(WEB_APPLICATION_CONTEXT_ATTRIBUTE, getWebApplicationContext());
	request.setAttribute(LOCALE_RESOLVER_ATTRIBUTE, this.localeResolver);
	request.setAttribute(THEME_RESOLVER_ATTRIBUTE, this.themeResolver);
	request.setAttribute(THEME_SOURCE_ATTRIBUTE, getThemeSource());

	if (this.flashMapManager != null) {
		FlashMap inputFlashMap = this.flashMapManager.retrieveAndUpdate(request, response);
		if (inputFlashMap != null) {
			request.setAttribute(INPUT_FLASH_MAP_ATTRIBUTE, Collections.unmodifiableMap(inputFlashMap));
		}
		request.setAttribute(OUTPUT_FLASH_MAP_ATTRIBUTE, new FlashMap());
		request.setAttribute(FLASH_MAP_MANAGER_ATTRIBUTE, this.flashMapManager);
	}

	try {
		// 真正执行的方法
		doDispatch(request, response);
	}
	finally {
		if (!WebAsyncUtils.getAsyncManager(request).isConcurrentHandlingStarted()) {
			// Restore the original attribute snapshot, in case of an include.
			if (attributesSnapshot != null) {
				restoreAttributesAfterInclude(request, attributesSnapshot);
			}
		}
	}
}

doDispatch

doDispatch是doService中真正用来处理请求的方法

/**
 * 实际处理请求的方法
 */
protected void doDispatch(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws Exception {
	HttpServletRequest processedRequest = request;
	HandlerExecutionChain mappedHandler = null;
	boolean multipartRequestParsed = false;

	WebAsyncManager asyncManager = WebAsyncUtils.getAsyncManager(request);

	try {
		ModelAndView mv = null;
		Exception dispatchException = null;

		try {
			// 校验是否是文件上传请求
			processedRequest = checkMultipart(request);
			multipartRequestParsed = (processedRequest != request);

			// Determine handler for the current request.
			// 为当前请求找到一个合适的处理器（Handler）
			// 返回值是一个HandlerExecutionChain，也就是处理器执行链
			mappedHandler = getHandler(processedRequest);
			if (mappedHandler == null) {
				noHandlerFound(processedRequest, response);
				return;
			}

			// Determine handler adapter for the current request.
			// 根据HandlerExecutionChain携带的Handler找到合适的HandlerAdapter
			HandlerAdapter ha = getHandlerAdapter(mappedHandler.getHandler());

			// Process last-modified header, if supported by the handler.
			// 处理GET请求的缓存
			String method = request.getMethod();
			boolean isGet = "GET".equals(method);
			if (isGet || "HEAD".equals(method)) {
				long lastModified = ha.getLastModified(request, mappedHandler.getHandler());
				if (new ServletWebRequest(request, response).checkNotModified(lastModified) && isGet) {
					return;
				}
			}

			// 执行拦截器的preHandle方法
			if (!mappedHandler.applyPreHandle(processedRequest, response)) {
				return;
			}

			// Actually invoke the handler.
			// 利用HandlerAdapter来执行Handler里对应的处理方法
			mv = ha.handle(processedRequest, response, mappedHandler.getHandler());

			if (asyncManager.isConcurrentHandlingStarted()) {
				return;
			}

			// 如果没有设置视图，则应用默认的视图名
			applyDefaultViewName(processedRequest, mv);
			// 执行拦截器的postHandle方法
			mappedHandler.applyPostHandle(processedRequest, response, mv);
		}
		catch (Exception ex) {
			dispatchException = ex;
		}
		catch (Throwable err) {
			// As of 4.3, we're processing Errors thrown from handler methods as well,
			// making them available for @ExceptionHandler methods and other scenarios.
			dispatchException = new NestedServletException("Handler dispatch failed", err);
		}
		// 根据ModelAndView对象解析视图
		processDispatchResult(processedRequest, response, mappedHandler, mv, dispatchException);
	}
	catch (Exception ex) {
		triggerAfterCompletion(processedRequest, response, mappedHandler, ex);
	}
	catch (Throwable err) {
		triggerAfterCompletion(processedRequest, response, mappedHandler,
				new NestedServletException("Handler processing failed", err));
	}
	finally {
		if (asyncManager.isConcurrentHandlingStarted()) {
			// Instead of postHandle and afterCompletion
			if (mappedHandler != null) {
				mappedHandler.applyAfterConcurrentHandlingStarted(processedRequest, response);
			}
		}
		else {
			// Clean up any resources used by a multipart request.
			if (multipartRequestParsed) {
				cleanupMultipart(processedRequest);
			}
		}
	}
}

该方法就是SpringMVC处理请求的整体流程，其中涉及到几个重要的方法。

getHandler

该方法定义如下

/**
 * Return the HandlerExecutionChain for this request.
 * 为这个request返回一个HandlerExecutionChain
 */
@Nullable
protected HandlerExecutionChain getHandler(HttpServletRequest request) throws Exception {
	if (this.handlerMappings != null) {
		for (HandlerMapping mapping : this.handlerMappings) {
			HandlerExecutionChain handler = mapping.getHandler(request);
			if (handler != null) {
				return handler;
			}
		}
	}
	return null;
}

调试信息如下

根据调试信息可以看出，getHandler方法主要是从List<HandlerMapping> handlerMappings集合中遍历查找一个合适的处理器（Handler），返回的结果是一个HandlerExecutionChain。然后再根据HandlerExecutionChain里携带的Handler去获取HandlerAdapter。

getHandlerAdapter

getHandlerAdapter方法定义如下

	/**
	 * Return the HandlerAdapter for this handler object.
	 * @param handler the handler object to find an adapter for
	 * @throws ServletException if no HandlerAdapter can be found for the handler. This is a fatal error.
	 */
	protected HandlerAdapter getHandlerAdapter(Object handler) throws ServletException {
		if (this.handlerAdapters != null) {
			for (HandlerAdapter adapter : this.handlerAdapters) {
				if (adapter.supports(handler)) {
					return adapter;
				}
			}
		}
		throw new ServletException("No adapter for handler [" + handler +
				"]: The DispatcherServlet configuration needs to include a HandlerAdapter that supports this handler");
	}

调试信息如下

同样getHandlerAdapter方法主要是从List<HandlerAdapter> handlerAdapters集合中遍历查找一个合适的处理器适配器（HandlerAdapter），返回的结果是一个HandlerAdapter。

可以看到此处HandlerAdapter真正的实现类是RequestMappingHandlerAdapter。

processDispatchResult

processDispatchResult方法主要根据方法执行完成后封装的ModelAndView，转发到对应页面，定义如下

/**
 * Handle the result of handler selection and handler invocation, which is
 * either a ModelAndView or an Exception to be resolved to a ModelAndView.
 */
private void processDispatchResult(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response,
		@Nullable HandlerExecutionChain mappedHandler, @Nullable ModelAndView mv,
		@Nullable Exception exception) throws Exception {

	boolean errorView = false;

	if (exception != null) {
		if (exception instanceof ModelAndViewDefiningException) {
			logger.debug("ModelAndViewDefiningException encountered", exception);
			mv = ((ModelAndViewDefiningException) exception).getModelAndView();
		}
		else {
			Object handler = (mappedHandler != null ? mappedHandler.getHandler() : null);
			mv = processHandlerException(request, response, handler, exception);
			errorView = (mv != null);
		}
	}

	// Did the handler return a view to render?
	if (mv != null && !mv.wasCleared()) {
		// 主要调用该方法渲染视图
		render(mv, request, response);
		if (errorView) {
			WebUtils.clearErrorRequestAttributes(request);
		}
	}
	else {
		if (logger.isTraceEnabled()) {
			logger.trace("No view rendering, null ModelAndView returned.");
		}
	}

	if (WebAsyncUtils.getAsyncManager(request).isConcurrentHandlingStarted()) {
		// Concurrent handling started during a forward
		return;
	}

	if (mappedHandler != null) {
		// Exception (if any) is already handled..
		mappedHandler.triggerAfterCompletion(request, response, null);
	}
}

render

render方法定义如下

/**
 * Render the given ModelAndView.
 * <p>This is the last stage in handling a request. It may involve resolving the view by name.
 * @param mv the ModelAndView to render
 * @param request current HTTP servlet request
 * @param response current HTTP servlet response
 * @throws ServletException if view is missing or cannot be resolved
 * @throws Exception if there's a problem rendering the view
 */
protected void render(ModelAndView mv, HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws Exception {
	// Determine locale for request and apply it to the response.
	Locale locale =
			(this.localeResolver != null ? this.localeResolver.resolveLocale(request) : request.getLocale());
	response.setLocale(locale);

	View view;
	String viewName = mv.getViewName();
	if (viewName != null) {
		// We need to resolve the view name.
		// 根据给定的视图名称，解析获取View对象
		view = resolveViewName(viewName, mv.getModelInternal(), locale, request);
		if (view == null) {
			throw new ServletException("Could not resolve view with name '" + mv.getViewName() +
					"' in servlet with name '" + getServletName() + "'");
		}
	}
	else {
		// No need to lookup: the ModelAndView object contains the actual View object.
		view = mv.getView();
		if (view == null) {
			throw new ServletException("ModelAndView [" + mv + "] neither contains a view name nor a " +
					"View object in servlet with name '" + getServletName() + "'");
		}
	}

	// Delegate to the View object for rendering.
	if (logger.isTraceEnabled()) {
		logger.trace("Rendering view [" + view + "] ");
	}
	try {
		if (mv.getStatus() != null) {
			response.setStatus(mv.getStatus().value());
		}
		view.render(mv.getModelInternal(), request, response);
	}
	catch (Exception ex) {
		if (logger.isDebugEnabled()) {
			logger.debug("Error rendering view [" + view + "]", ex);
		}
		throw ex;
	}
}

resolveViewName

resolveViewName方法定义如下

@Nullable
protected View resolveViewName(String viewName, @Nullable Map<String, Object> model,
		Locale locale, HttpServletRequest request) throws Exception {

	if (this.viewResolvers != null) {
		for (ViewResolver viewResolver : this.viewResolvers) {
			View view = viewResolver.resolveViewName(viewName, locale);
			if (view != null) {
				return view;
			}
		}
	}
	return null;
}

调试信息如下

根据调试信息可以看到真正解析视图的ViewResolver的是InternalResourceViewResolver类，也就是我们经常配置的一项类型

<!-- 定义视图文件解析 -->
<bean class="org.springframework.web.servlet.view.InternalResourceViewResolver">
	<property name="prefix" value="/WEB-INF/views/" />
	<property name="suffix" value=".html" />
</bean>

至此我们就得到了SpringMVC处理请求的完整逻辑

SpringMVC处理请求的整个流程已经梳理清楚了。

但是，有两个重要的问题没有解决，那就是：参数绑定和返回值处理。

因为在编写Controller里面的方法的时候，各种类型的参数都有，SpringMVC是怎么处理不同类型的参数的呢？
SpringMVC处理请求完成后，一定会返回ModelAndView吗，如果加了@ResponseBody注解呢？

参数绑定

在整个流程中，还有一个最重要的方法，那就是真正执行handler的方法，参数的绑定和返回值的处理都在这个方法里，也就是

// Actually invoke the handler.
mv = ha.handle(processedRequest, response, mappedHandler.getHandler());

handle

handle方法的作用是根据请求参数，执行真正的处理方法，并且返回合适的ModelAndView对象，也有可能返回null。该方法定义如下
在AbstractHandlerMethodAdapter类中

/**
 * This implementation expects the handler to be an {@link HandlerMethod}.
 */
@Override
@Nullable
public final ModelAndView handle(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response, Object handler)
		throws Exception {

	return handleInternal(request, response, (HandlerMethod) handler);
}

可以看到这个方法实现只有一行代码

handleInternal

继续深入handleInternal方法

@Override
protected ModelAndView handleInternal(HttpServletRequest request,
		HttpServletResponse response, HandlerMethod handlerMethod) throws Exception {

	ModelAndView mav;
	// 校验指定的请求以获取受支持的方法类型（GET、POST等）和所需的session
	checkRequest(request);

	// Execute invokeHandlerMethod in synchronized block if required.
	if (this.synchronizeOnSession) {
		HttpSession session = request.getSession(false);
		if (session != null) {
			Object mutex = WebUtils.getSessionMutex(session);
			synchronized (mutex) {
				mav = invokeHandlerMethod(request, response, handlerMethod);
			}
		}
		else {
			// No HttpSession available -> no mutex necessary
			mav = invokeHandlerMethod(request, response, handlerMethod);
		}
	}
	else {
		// No synchronization on session demanded at all...
		// 真正执行handler的方法
		mav = invokeHandlerMethod(request, response, handlerMethod);
	}

	if (!response.containsHeader(HEADER_CACHE_CONTROL)) {
		if (getSessionAttributesHandler(handlerMethod).hasSessionAttributes()) {
			applyCacheSeconds(response, this.cacheSecondsForSessionAttributeHandlers);
		}
		else {
			prepareResponse(response);
		}
	}

	return mav;
}

invokeHandlerMethod

继续深入invokeHandlerMethod方法

/**
 * Invoke the {@link RequestMapping} handler method preparing a {@link ModelAndView}
 * if view resolution is required.
 * 执行@RequestMapping标注的handler方法，如果需要解析视图就准备一个ModelAndView
 */
@Nullable
protected ModelAndView invokeHandlerMethod(HttpServletRequest request,
		HttpServletResponse response, HandlerMethod handlerMethod) throws Exception {

	ServletWebRequest webRequest = new ServletWebRequest(request, response);
	try {
		WebDataBinderFactory binderFactory = getDataBinderFactory(handlerMethod);
		ModelFactory modelFactory = getModelFactory(handlerMethod, binderFactory);

		// HandlerMethod接口封装执行方法的信息，提供对方法参数，方法返回值，方法注释等的便捷访问。
		ServletInvocableHandlerMethod invocableMethod = createInvocableHandlerMethod(handlerMethod);
		if (this.argumentResolvers != null) {
			invocableMethod.setHandlerMethodArgumentResolvers(this.argumentResolvers);
		}
		if (this.returnValueHandlers != null) {
			invocableMethod.setHandlerMethodReturnValueHandlers(this.returnValueHandlers);
		}
		invocableMethod.setDataBinderFactory(binderFactory);
		invocableMethod.setParameterNameDiscoverer(this.parameterNameDiscoverer);

		// ModelAndViewContainer可以看做ModelAndView的上下文容器，关联着Model和View的信息
		ModelAndViewContainer mavContainer = new ModelAndViewContainer();
		mavContainer.addAllAttributes(RequestContextUtils.getInputFlashMap(request));
		modelFactory.initModel(webRequest, mavContainer, invocableMethod);
		mavContainer.setIgnoreDefaultModelOnRedirect(this.ignoreDefaultModelOnRedirect);

		AsyncWebRequest asyncWebRequest = WebAsyncUtils.createAsyncWebRequest(request, response);
		asyncWebRequest.setTimeout(this.asyncRequestTimeout);

		WebAsyncManager asyncManager = WebAsyncUtils.getAsyncManager(request);
		asyncManager.setTaskExecutor(this.taskExecutor);
		asyncManager.setAsyncWebRequest(asyncWebRequest);
		asyncManager.registerCallableInterceptors(this.callableInterceptors);
		asyncManager.registerDeferredResultInterceptors(this.deferredResultInterceptors);

		if (asyncManager.hasConcurrentResult()) {
			Object result = asyncManager.getConcurrentResult();
			mavContainer = (ModelAndViewContainer) asyncManager.getConcurrentResultContext()[0];
			asyncManager.clearConcurrentResult();
			LogFormatUtils.traceDebug(logger, traceOn -> {
				String formatted = LogFormatUtils.formatValue(result, !traceOn);
				return "Resume with async result [" + formatted + "]";
			});
			invocableMethod = invocableMethod.wrapConcurrentResult(result);
		}

		// 真正执行Handler的方法
		invocableMethod.invokeAndHandle(webRequest, mavContainer);
		if (asyncManager.isConcurrentHandlingStarted()) {
			return null;
		}

		// 获取ModelAndeView对象
		return getModelAndView(mavContainer, modelFactory, webRequest);
	}
	finally {
		webRequest.requestCompleted();
	}
}

invokeAndHandle

invokeAndHandle方法的作用是执行并处理真正响应请求的方法，该方法定义如下

/**
 * Invoke the method and handle the return value through one of the
 * configured {@link HandlerMethodReturnValueHandler HandlerMethodReturnValueHandlers}.
 * @param webRequest the current request
 * @param mavContainer the ModelAndViewContainer for this request
 * @param providedArgs "given" arguments matched by type (not resolved)
 */
public void invokeAndHandle(ServletWebRequest webRequest, ModelAndViewContainer mavContainer,
		Object... providedArgs) throws Exception {

	// 执行handler的方法
	Object returnValue = invokeForRequest(webRequest, mavContainer, providedArgs);
	setResponseStatus(webRequest);

	if (returnValue == null) {
		if (isRequestNotModified(webRequest) || getResponseStatus() != null || mavContainer.isRequestHandled()) {
			disableContentCachingIfNecessary(webRequest);
			mavContainer.setRequestHandled(true);
			return;
		}
	}
	else if (StringUtils.hasText(getResponseStatusReason())) {
		mavContainer.setRequestHandled(true);
		return;
	}

	mavContainer.setRequestHandled(false);
	Assert.state(this.returnValueHandlers != null, "No return value handlers");
	try {
		this.returnValueHandlers.handleReturnValue(
				returnValue, getReturnValueType(returnValue), mavContainer, webRequest);
	}
	catch (Exception ex) {
		if (logger.isTraceEnabled()) {
			logger.trace(formatErrorForReturnValue(returnValue), ex);
		}
		throw ex;
	}
}

invokeForRequest

/**
 * Invoke the method after resolving its argument values in the context of the given request.
 * <p>Argument values are commonly resolved through
 * {@link HandlerMethodArgumentResolver HandlerMethodArgumentResolvers}.
 * The {@code providedArgs} parameter however may supply argument values to be used directly,
 * i.e. without argument resolution. Examples of provided argument values include a
 * {@link WebDataBinder}, a {@link SessionStatus}, or a thrown exception instance.
 * Provided argument values are checked before argument resolvers.
 * <p>Delegates to {@link #getMethodArgumentValues} and calls {@link #doInvoke} with the
 * resolved arguments.
 * @param request the current request
 * @param mavContainer the ModelAndViewContainer for this request
 * @param providedArgs "given" arguments matched by type, not resolved
 * @return the raw value returned by the invoked method
 * @throws Exception raised if no suitable argument resolver can be found,
 * or if the method raised an exception
 * @see #getMethodArgumentValues
 * @see #doInvoke
 */
@Nullable
public Object invokeForRequest(NativeWebRequest request, @Nullable ModelAndViewContainer mavContainer,
		Object... providedArgs) throws Exception {

	// 获取参数
	Object[] args = getMethodArgumentValues(request, mavContainer, providedArgs);
	if (logger.isTraceEnabled()) {
		logger.trace("Arguments: " + Arrays.toString(args));
	}
	// 执行
	return doInvoke(args);
}

真正的执行无非就是通过反射invoke，所以更重要的是参数是如何绑定的，详情就在getMethodArgumentValues方法

getMethodArgumentValues

getMethodArgumentValues方法用于从request请求中获取真正的参数，返回的是Object数组，该方法定义如下

/**
 * Get the method argument values for the current request, checking the provided
 * argument values and falling back to the configured argument resolvers.
 * <p>The resulting array will be passed into {@link #doInvoke}.
 * @since 5.1.2
 */
protected Object[] getMethodArgumentValues(NativeWebRequest request, @Nullable ModelAndViewContainer mavContainer,
		Object... providedArgs) throws Exception {

	// 获取方法上所有的参数
	MethodParameter[] parameters = getMethodParameters();
	if (ObjectUtils.isEmpty(parameters)) {
		return EMPTY_ARGS;
	}

	Object[] args = new Object[parameters.length];
	for (int i = 0; i < parameters.length; i++) {
		MethodParameter parameter = parameters[i];
		parameter.initParameterNameDiscovery(this.parameterNameDiscoverer);
		args[i] = findProvidedArgument(parameter, providedArgs);
		if (args[i] != null) {
			continue;
		}
		if (!this.resolvers.supportsParameter(parameter)) {
			throw new IllegalStateException(formatArgumentError(parameter, "No suitable resolver"));
		}
		try {
			
			args[i] = this.resolvers.resolveArgument(parameter, mavContainer, request, this.dataBinderFactory);
		}
		catch (Exception ex) {
			// Leave stack trace for later, exception may actually be resolved and handled...
			if (logger.isDebugEnabled()) {
				String exMsg = ex.getMessage();
				if (exMsg != null && !exMsg.contains(parameter.getExecutable().toGenericString())) {
					logger.debug(formatArgumentError(parameter, exMsg));
				}
			}
			throw ex;
		}
	}
	return args;
}

根据调试信息可以看到，用来处理请求参数的类是HandlerMethodArgumentResolver接口的实现类HandlerMethodArgumentResolverComposite，此时正在处理的参数是一个Student对象，并且已经把值注绑定了，也就是说真正执行绑定的是方法resolveArgument

resolveArgument

resolveArgument是真正执行绑定的的方法

/**
 * Iterate over registered
 * {@link HandlerMethodArgumentResolver HandlerMethodArgumentResolvers}
 * and invoke the one that supports it.
 * @throws IllegalArgumentException if no suitable argument resolver is found
 */
@Override
@Nullable
public Object resolveArgument(MethodParameter parameter, @Nullable ModelAndViewContainer mavContainer,
		NativeWebRequest webRequest, @Nullable WebDataBinderFactory binderFactory) throws Exception {

	// 获取合适的参数解析器
	HandlerMethodArgumentResolver resolver = getArgumentResolver(parameter);
	if (resolver == null) {
		throw new IllegalArgumentException("Unsupported parameter type [" +
				parameter.getParameterType().getName() + "]. supportsParameter should be called first.");
	}
	// 执行参数绑定
	return resolver.resolveArgument(parameter, mavContainer, webRequest, binderFactory);
}

getArgumentResolver

getArgumentResolver该方法用于执行参数的绑定，定义如下

/**
 * Find a registered {@link HandlerMethodArgumentResolver} that supports
 * the given method parameter.
 */
@Nullable
private HandlerMethodArgumentResolver getArgumentResolver(MethodParameter parameter) {
	HandlerMethodArgumentResolver result = this.argumentResolverCache.get(parameter);
	if (result == null) {
		for (HandlerMethodArgumentResolver resolver : this.argumentResolvers) {
			if (resolver.supportsParameter(parameter)) {
				result = resolver;
				this.argumentResolverCache.put(parameter, result);
				break;
			}
		}
	}
	return result;
}

该方法的逻辑就是先从argumentResolver缓存中找到能够执行参数绑定的HandlerMethodArgumentResolver，如果找不到就从HandlerMethodArgumentResolver找，SpringMVC支持的HandlerMethodArgumentResolver一共有26种，用来解析各种类型的参数

根据博主的调试可以知道

• RequestParamMethodArgumentResolver：处理普通参数（基本类型、包装类型、String），不管加不加@RequestParam注解
• ServletModelAttributeMethodProcessor：处理POJO类型的参数，比如自定义的Student对象
• RequestResponseBodyMethodProcessor：处理@RequestBody注解类型的参数

有兴趣的同学可以试试更多不同形式的参数

resolveArgument

由于不同类型的参数有不同的HandlerMethodArgumentResolver来处理，此处选取POJO类型参数的注入实现，对应的参数解析类是ModelAttributeMethodProcessor，其中resolveArgument方法用来解析（绑定）参数方法定义如下

/**
 * Resolve the argument from the model or if not found instantiate it with
 * its default if it is available. The model attribute is then populated
 * with request values via data binding and optionally validated
 * if {@code @java.validation.Valid} is present on the argument.
 * @throws BindException if data binding and validation result in an error
 * and the next method parameter is not of type {@link Errors}
 * @throws Exception if WebDataBinder initialization fails
 */
@Override
@Nullable
public final Object resolveArgument(MethodParameter parameter, @Nullable ModelAndViewContainer mavContainer,
		NativeWebRequest webRequest, @Nullable WebDataBinderFactory binderFactory) throws Exception {

	Assert.state(mavContainer != null, "ModelAttributeMethodProcessor requires ModelAndViewContainer");
	Assert.state(binderFactory != null, "ModelAttributeMethodProcessor requires WebDataBinderFactory");

	// 获取参数名
	String name = ModelFactory.getNameForParameter(parameter);
	// 获取参数上的ModelAttribute注解
	ModelAttribute ann = parameter.getParameterAnnotation(ModelAttribute.class);
	if (ann != null) {
		mavContainer.setBinding(name, ann.binding());
	}

	Object attribute = null;
	BindingResult bindingResult = null;

	if (mavContainer.containsAttribute(name)) {
		attribute = mavContainer.getModel().get(name);
	}
	else {
		// Create attribute instance
		try {
			// 创建参数类型的实例（未注入值），底层就是通过反射调用构造方法
			attribute = createAttribute(name, parameter, binderFactory, webRequest);
		}
		catch (BindException ex) {
			if (isBindExceptionRequired(parameter)) {
				// No BindingResult parameter -> fail with BindException
				throw ex;
			}
			// Otherwise, expose null/empty value and associated BindingResult
			if (parameter.getParameterType() == Optional.class) {
				attribute = Optional.empty();
			}
			bindingResult = ex.getBindingResult();
		}
	}

	if (bindingResult == null) {
		// Bean property binding and validation;
		// skipped in case of binding failure on construction.
		WebDataBinder binder = binderFactory.createBinder(webRequest, attribute, name);
		if (binder.getTarget() != null) {
			if (!mavContainer.isBindingDisabled(name)) {
				// 真正执行绑定（值注入）的方法
				bindRequestParameters(binder, webRequest);
			}
			validateIfApplicable(binder, parameter);
			if (binder.getBindingResult().hasErrors() && isBindExceptionRequired(binder, parameter)) {
				throw new BindException(binder.getBindingResult());
			}
		}
		// Value type adaptation, also covering java.util.Optional
		if (!parameter.getParameterType().isInstance(attribute)) {
			attribute = binder.convertIfNecessary(binder.getTarget(), parameter.getParameterType(), parameter);
		}
		bindingResult = binder.getBindingResult();
	}

	// Add resolved attribute and BindingResult at the end of the model
	Map<String, Object> bindingResultModel = bindingResult.getModel();
	mavContainer.removeAttributes(bindingResultModel);
	mavContainer.addAllAttributes(bindingResultModel);

	return attribute;
}

根据调试信息也可以看到bindRequestParameters(binder, webRequest)执行完成之后，POJO类型的参数已经完成了绑定。

bindRequestParameters

/**
 * This implementation downcasts {@link WebDataBinder} to
 * {@link ServletRequestDataBinder} before binding.
 * @see ServletRequestDataBinderFactory
 */
@Override
protected void bindRequestParameters(WebDataBinder binder, NativeWebRequest request) {
	ServletRequest servletRequest = request.getNativeRequest(ServletRequest.class);
	Assert.state(servletRequest != null, "No ServletRequest");
	ServletRequestDataBinder servletBinder = (ServletRequestDataBinder) binder;
	// 执行绑定的方法
	servletBinder.bind(servletRequest);
}

bind

继续深入bind方法

public void bind(ServletRequest request) {
	// 获取所有参数的键值对
	MutablePropertyValues mpvs = new ServletRequestParameterPropertyValues(request);
	// 处理文件上传请求
	MultipartRequest multipartRequest = WebUtils.getNativeRequest(request, MultipartRequest.class);
	if (multipartRequest != null) {
		bindMultipart(multipartRequest.getMultiFileMap(), mpvs);
	}
	// 把url中携带的参数也加入到MutablePropertyValues
	addBindValues(mpvs, request);
	// 执行绑定（注入值）
	doBind(mpvs);
}

由于调用层次过深，所以无法一步步列出下面的步骤，doBind方法的原理还是通过调用POJO对象里的setter方法设置值，可以查看最终的调试信息

根据调试信息可以看到，最终执行的还是POJO对象的setter方法，具体执行的类是BeanWrapperImpl。

了解了参数的绑定，再来看返回值的处理。

返回值处理

invokeAndHandle

回到源码invokeAndHandle方法处（ServletInvocableHandlerMethod类中），该方法定义如下

/**
 * Invoke the method and handle the return value through one of the
 * configured {@link HandlerMethodReturnValueHandler HandlerMethodReturnValueHandlers}.
 * @param webRequest the current request
 * @param mavContainer the ModelAndViewContainer for this request
 * @param providedArgs "given" arguments matched by type (not resolved)
 */
public void invokeAndHandle(ServletWebRequest webRequest, ModelAndViewContainer mavContainer,
		Object... providedArgs) throws Exception {

	Object returnValue = invokeForRequest(webRequest, mavContainer, providedArgs);
	setResponseStatus(webRequest);

	if (returnValue == null) {
		if (isRequestNotModified(webRequest) || getResponseStatus() != null || mavContainer.isRequestHandled()) {
			disableContentCachingIfNecessary(webRequest);
			mavContainer.setRequestHandled(true);
			return;
		}
	}
	else if (StringUtils.hasText(getResponseStatusReason())) {
		mavContainer.setRequestHandled(true);
		return;
	}

	mavContainer.setRequestHandled(false);
	Assert.state(this.returnValueHandlers != null, "No return value handlers");
	try {
		// 真正处理不同类型返回值的方法
		this.returnValueHandlers.handleReturnValue(
				returnValue, getReturnValueType(returnValue), mavContainer, webRequest);
	}
	catch (Exception ex) {
		if (logger.isTraceEnabled()) {
			logger.trace(formatErrorForReturnValue(returnValue), ex);
		}
		throw ex;
	}
}

真正处理不同类型的返回值的方法是handleReturnValue方法

handleReturnValue

/**
 * Iterate over registered {@link HandlerMethodReturnValueHandler HandlerMethodReturnValueHandlers} and invoke the one that supports it.
 * @throws IllegalStateException if no suitable {@link HandlerMethodReturnValueHandler} is found.
 */
@Override
public void handleReturnValue(@Nullable Object returnValue, MethodParameter returnType,
		ModelAndViewContainer mavContainer, NativeWebRequest webRequest) throws Exception {

	// 根据返回值个返回值类型选取合适的HandlerMethodReturnValueHandler
	HandlerMethodReturnValueHandler handler = selectHandler(returnValue, returnType);
	if (handler == null) {
		throw new IllegalArgumentException("Unknown return value type: " + returnType.getParameterType().getName());
	}
	// 真正的处理返回值
	handler.handleReturnValue(returnValue, returnType, mavContainer, webRequest);
}

selectHandler

@Nullable
private HandlerMethodReturnValueHandler selectHandler(@Nullable Object value, MethodParameter returnType) {
	boolean isAsyncValue = isAsyncReturnValue(value, returnType);
	for (HandlerMethodReturnValueHandler handler : this.returnValueHandlers) {
		if (isAsyncValue && !(handler instanceof AsyncHandlerMethodReturnValueHandler)) {
			continue;
		}
		if (handler.supportsReturnType(returnType)) {
			return handler;
		}
	}
	return null;
}

根据调试信息可以看到，SpringMVC为返回值提供了15个HandlerMethodReturnValueHandler的实现了来处理不同类型的返回值。

事实上，用来处理@ResponseBody类型的是RequestResponseBodyMethodProcessor。

如果对前文参数绑定还有印象的话，会发现@RequestBody类型参数绑定也是用的这个类。

继续跟进RequestResponseBodyMethodProcessor类的handleReturnValue方法

handleReturnValue

RequestResponseBodyMethodProcessor类的handleReturnValue方法定义如下

这里设置了一个非常重要的属性requestHandled，这个属性关系到是否需要返回ModelAndView对象

@Override
public void handleReturnValue(@Nullable Object returnValue, MethodParameter returnType,
		ModelAndViewContainer mavContainer, NativeWebRequest webRequest)
		throws IOException, HttpMediaTypeNotAcceptableException, HttpMessageNotWritableException {

	// 设置该请求是否已在处理程序中完全处理，例如@ResponseBody方法不需要视图解析器，此处就可以设置为true。
	// 当控制器方法声明类型为ServletResponse或OutputStream的参数时，也可以设置此标志为true。 
	// 这个属性设置成true之后，上层getModelAndView获取ModelAndView时会返回Null，因为不需要视图。
	// 默认值为false
	mavContainer.setRequestHandled(true);
	ServletServerHttpRequest inputMessage = createInputMessage(webRequest);
	ServletServerHttpResponse outputMessage = createOutputMessage(webRequest);

	// Try even with null return value. ResponseBodyAdvice could get involved.
	// 底层就是利用java.io.OutputStreamWriter类把返回值写到网络IO
	writeWithMessageConverters(returnValue, returnType, inputMessage, outputMessage);
}

继续深入writeWithMessageConverters方法，一步步调试到最后，底层就是利用java.io.OutputStreamWriter类把返回值写到网络IO

由于handleReturnValue把requestHandled设置成了true，上层在调用getModelAndView方法时会返回null，表示该请求不需要视图。感兴趣的同学自己调试一下便知。

总结

本文主要从源码的阅读和调试的角度，整体的讲解了SpringMVC处理请求的整个流程，并且讲解了参数的绑定以及返回值的处理。相信大家看完后，结合自己的调试信息，会对SpringMVC的请求处理过程有一个更深入的理解。
