Subscribe to RSS FeedData binding in Spring MVC
Two of the most important tasks carried out by Spring MVC when you submit a form are Data binding and validation.
The following article discusses data binding, including the use of custom PropertyEditors, and some of the options available for registering such editors. Most of the information discussed applies to Spring in general, but its application in Spring MVC is my primary interest.
In a future article I would like to discuss validation including the use of custom error messages.
Note that these notes relate to version 2.5.6 of Spring, the latest production code at time of writing, and depend heavily on the corresponding Spring reference docs.
