SpringMVC组件之RequestToViewNameTranslator

RequestToViewNameTranslator
作用 从request中获取viewName

    public interface RequestToViewNameTranslator {  

        /** 
         * Translate the given {@link HttpServletRequest} into a view name. 
         * @param request the incoming {@link HttpServletRequest} providing 
         * the context from which a view name is to be resolved 
         * @return the view name (or {@code null} if no default found) 
         * @throws Exception if view name translation fails 
         */  
        String getViewName(HttpServletRequest request) throws Exception;  

    }  

我们知道它是容器中很重要的一个组件，并且是MVC容器的9大组件之一。

1.下这个viewNameTranslator是怎么得到的吧？
它是在容器组件初始化的过程中完成的 initStrategies完成9个组件的初始化包括该组件。
从容器中获取bean，bean 名称为：DefaultRequestToViewNameTranslator

/* Initialize the RequestToViewNameTranslator used by this servlet instance.
     * <p>If no implementation is configured then we default to DefaultRequestToViewNameTranslator.
     */
    private void initRequestToViewNameTranslator(ApplicationContext context) {
        try {
            this.viewNameTranslator =
                    context.getBean(REQUEST_TO_VIEW_NAME_TRANSLATOR_BEAN_NAME, RequestToViewNameTranslator.class);
            if (logger.isDebugEnabled()) {
                logger.debug("Using RequestToViewNameTranslator [" + this.viewNameTranslator + "]");
            }
        }
        catch (NoSuchBeanDefinitionException ex) {
            // We need to use the default.
            this.viewNameTranslator = getDefaultStrategy(context, RequestToViewNameTranslator.class);
            if (logger.isDebugEnabled()) {
                logger.debug("Unable to locate RequestToViewNameTranslator with name '" +
                        REQUEST_TO_VIEW_NAME_TRANSLATOR_BEAN_NAME + "': using default [" + this.viewNameTranslator +
                        "]");
            }
        }
    }

2.它是如何完成从request中获取viewName的？？

DefalutRequestToViewNameTranslator是它的默认实现类
获取默认view name的真正实现方法如下：
其实其简单实现就是将请求名称作为视图名称返回，逻辑还是比较简单的。

/**
     * Translates the request URI of the incoming {@link HttpServletRequest}
     * into the view name based on the configured parameters.
     * @see org.springframework.web.util.UrlPathHelper#getLookupPathForRequest
     * @see #transformPath
     */
    @Override
    public String getViewName(HttpServletRequest request) {
        String lookupPath = this.urlPathHelper.getLookupPathForRequest(request);
        return (this.prefix + transformPath(lookupPath) + this.suffix);
    }

 /**
     * Transform the request URI (in the context of the webapp) stripping
     * slashes and extensions, and replacing the separator as required.
     * @param lookupPath the lookup path for the current request,
     * as determined by the UrlPathHelper
     * @return the transformed path, with slashes and extensions stripped
     * if desired
     */
    protected String transformPath(String lookupPath) {
        String path = lookupPath;
        if (this.stripLeadingSlash && path.startsWith(SLASH)) {
            path = path.substring(1);
        }
        if (this.stripTrailingSlash && path.endsWith(SLASH)) {
            path = path.substring(0, path.length() - 1);
        }
        if (this.stripExtension) {
            path = StringUtils.stripFilenameExtension(path);
        }
        if (!SLASH.equals(this.separator)) {
            path = StringUtils.replace(path, SLASH, this.separator);
        }
        return path;
    }

/**
     * Return the mapping lookup path for the given request, within the current
     * servlet mapping if applicable, else within the web application.
     * <p>Detects include request URL if called within a RequestDispatcher include.
     * @param request current HTTP request
     * @return the lookup path

        String rest = getPathWithinServletMapping(request);

        }
        else {
            return getPathWithinApplication(request);
        }
    }

    /**
     * Return the path within the servlet mapping for the given request,

     * or "" if the whole URL has been used to identify the servlet.
