[FIXED] Does Spring MVC support extension-less URLs?

Issue

Does Spring MVC support extension-less URLs like asp.net MVC does?

I am just getting started with Spring MVC.

Or maybe has nothing to do with Spring MVC but Tomcat?

Solution

If you are using annotations, you annotate your controller methods or classes with something like:

@RequestMapping("/hello")

Which will respond to /hello when you map the dispatcher servlet like so:

<servlet-mapping>
    <servlet-name>dispatcher</servlet-name>
    <url-pattern>/</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
