This is a simple Hello World application with Spring 3 MVC. Like the default Apache HTTPd welcome page, it displays " It works! " when successfully deployed. The sole purpose is to show the minimum elements needed to setup Spring 3 MVC.
I use Maven since it's so much easier than downloading the dependencies manually.
Directory layout:
./src
./src/main
./src/main/webapp
./src/...
pom.xml :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<project...
WEB-INF/web.xml :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<web-app...
WEB-INF/applicationContext.xml (empty, but needed):

<beans x...
WEB-INF/jsp/home.jsp :

Build with:
mvn clean package
The resulting webapp is target/springmvc.war .

<html>

The spring MVC annotation-driven declaration:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <beans x... does the following magic : Among others, registers: RequestMappingHandlerMapping RequestMappingHandlerAdapter ExceptionHandlerExceptionResolver in support of processing requests with annotated controller methods using annotations such as @RequestMapping , @ExceptionHandler , etc. Enables Spring 3 style type conversion through a ConversionService instance in addition to the JavaBeans PropertyEditors used for Data Binding. Enables support for formatting Number fields using the @NumberFormat annotation through the ConversionService . Enables support for formatting Date, Calendar, Long, and Joda Time fields using the @DateTimeFormat annotation, if Joda Time 1.3 or higher is present on the classpath. Enables support for validating @Controller inputs with @Valid , if a JSR-303 Provider is present on the classpath. Enables HttpMessageConverter support for @RequestBody method parameters and...
