The DispatcherServlet
is an actual Servlet
(it inherits from the HttpServlet
base class), and as such is declared in your web application. You need to map requests that you want the DispatcherServlet
to handle, by using a URL mapping. Here is a standard Java EE Servlet configuration in a Servlet 3.0+ environment:
public class MyWebApplicationInitializer implements WebApplicationInitializer { @Override public void onStartup(ServletContext container) { ServletRegistration.Dynamic registration = container.addServlet("example", new DispatcherServlet()); registration.setLoadOnStartup(1); registration.addMapping("/example/*"); } }
In the preceding example, all requests starting with /example
will be handled by the DispatcherServlet
instance named example
.
WebApplicationInitializer
is an interface provided by Spring MVC that ensures your code-based configuration is detected and automatically used to initialize any Servlet 3 container. An abstract base class implementation of this interface named AbstractAnnotationConfigDispatcherServletInitializer
makes it even easier to register the DispatcherServlet
by simply specifying its servlet mapping and listing configuration classes - it’s even the recommended way to set up your Spring MVC application. See Code-based Servlet container initialization for more details.
The DispatcherServlet
is an actual Servlet
(it inherits from the HttpServlet
base class), and as such is declared in the web.xml
of your web application. You need to map requests that you want the DispatcherServlet
to handle, by using a URL mapping in the same web.xml
file. This is standard Java EE Servlet configuration; the following example shows such a DispatcherServlet
declaration and mapping:
Below is the web.xml
equivalent of the above code based example:
<web-app> <servlet> <servlet-name>example</servlet-name> <servlet-class>org.springframework.web.servlet.DispatcherServlet</servlet-class> <load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup> </servlet> <servlet-mapping> <servlet-name>example</servlet-name> <url-pattern>/example/*</url-pattern> </servlet-mapping> </web-app>
