spring mvc3中的addFlashAttribute方法

记得在spring mvc2中，当保存POJO到数据库后,要返回成功页面，如果这个时候要带点信息，
则要这样：

	//第三个参数（UserModel user）默认为绑定对象
	@RequestMapping(value = "/user/save", method = RequestMethod.POST)
	public ModelAndView saveUser(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response,UserModel user) throws Exception {
		ModelAndView mv = new ModelAndView("/user/save/result");//默认为forward模式
//		ModelAndView mv = new ModelAndView("redirect:/user/save/result");//redirect模式
		mv.addObject("message","保存用户成功！");
		return mv;
	}

而在spring mvc 3.1后，可以这样

	@RequestMapping(value = "/user/save", method = RequestMethod.POST)
	public ModelAndView saveUser(UserModel user, RedirectAttributes redirectAttributes) throws Exception {
		redirectAttributes.addFlashAttribute("message", "保存用户成功！");//使用addFlashAttribute,参数不会出现在url地址栏中
		return "redirect:/user/save/result";
	}

来个稍微完整点的例子，首先是一个表单，在其中填入一些信息：

<form:form id="myform" action="saveUserDetails.action" method="POST" commandName="user">
   <form:input type="text" name="firstName" path="firstName"/>
   <form:input type="text" name="lastName" path="lastName"/>
   <form:input type="text" name="email" path="email"/>
   <input type="submit" value="submit">
</form:form>

则在controller中，可以这样：

       @RequestMapping(value="/saveUserDetails.action", method=RequestMethod.POST)
public String greetingsAction(@Validated User user,RedirectAttributes redirectAttributes){

               someUserdetailsService.save(user);

               redirectAttributes.addFlashAttribute("firstName", user.getFirstName());
	redirectAttributes.addFlashAttribute("lastName", user.getLastName())
	return "redirect:success.html";
}

success.html:
<div>
<h1>Hello ${firstName} ${lastName}. Your details stored in our database.</h1>
</div><br>

但如果F5的时候，会发现参数丢失，因为flash scope其实只支持redirect的，所以可以判断下：

@RequestMapping(value="/success.html", method=RequestMethod.GET)
	public String successView(HttpServletRequest request){
		Map<String,?> map = RequestContextUtils.getInputFlashMap(request); 
		if (map!=null)
		   return "success";
		else return "redirect:someOtherView"; //給出其他提示信息
