I am learning spring MVC nowadays for new project.There I came across @RequestMapping annotations for how requests are mapped with URL.
I want to understand that , How request and URL is mapped previously without use of this annotation? How it is configured in XML files?
Controller code:
@Controller
public class HelloController {
@RequestMapping(value = "/greeting")
public String sayHello(Model model){
model.addAttribute("greeting","Helloworld");
return "hello";
}
}
servlet-config.xml
