SpringMVC的DispatcherServlet的默认策略
在使用SpringMVC的时候，我们知道需要HandlerMapping定义请求路径与处理器之间的映射，需要HandlerAdapter来调用处理器方法并返回一个ModelAndView对象，需要ViewResolver来解析视图。这些是SpringMVC中最基本的接口。通常我们都需要在SpringMVC的配置文件中定义好需要使用的HandlerMapping、HandlerAdapter和ViewResolver，基于注解的SpringMVC配置也是类似的。所以一般我们的SpringMVC配置文件会是如下这样：
<mvc:annotation-driven/>
<!-- 快速注册视图解析器 -->
<mvc:view-resolvers>
<mvc:jsp prefix="/WEB-INF/views/" suffix=".jsp"/>
</mvc:view-resolvers>
mvc命名空间是Spring提供的一个简化SpringMVC配置的命名空间，<mvc:annotation-driven/>会自动在Spring的bean容器中注册HandlerMapping接口实现RequestMappingHandlerMapping类型的bean和HandlerAdapter接口实现类RequestMappingHandlerAdapter类型的bean。<mvc:view-resolvers/>是用来快速定义ViewResolver实现的，其中<mvc:jsp/>会自动定义一个InternalResourceViewResolver类型的ViewResolver。
针对这些比较基本接口，即使我们不定义它们的实现，SpringMVC内部也给了默认的定义，它管这些叫策略。SpringMVC把这些默认策略都定义在一个叫DispatcherServlet.properties的文件中，它与DispatcherServlet在同一个包中。以下是笔者在使用的4.1.0版本中的DispatcherServlet.properties文件中的定义。
org.springframework.web.servlet.LocaleResolver=org.springframework.web.servlet.i18n.AcceptHeaderLocaleResolver org.springframework.web.servlet.ThemeResolver=org.springframework.web.servlet.theme.FixedThemeResolver org.springframework.web.servlet.HandlerMapping=org.springframework.web.servlet.handler.BeanNameUrlHandlerMapping,\ org.springframework.web.servlet.mvc.annotation.DefaultAnnotationHandlerMapping org.springframework.web.servlet.HandlerAdapter=org.springframework.web.servlet.mvc.HttpRequestHandlerAdapter,\ org.springframework.web.servlet.mvc.SimpleControllerHandlerAdapter,\ org.springframework.web.servlet.mvc.annotation.AnnotationMethodHandlerAdapter org.springframework.web.servlet.HandlerExceptionResolver=org.springframework.web.servlet.mvc.annotation.AnnotationMethodHandlerExceptionResolver,\ org.springframework.web.servlet.mvc.annotation.ResponseStatusExceptionResolver,\ org.springframework.web.servlet.mvc.support.DefaultHandlerExceptionResolver org.springframework.web.servlet.RequestToViewNameTranslator=org.springframework.web.servlet.view.DefaultRequestToViewNameTranslator org.springframework.web.servlet.ViewResolver=org.springframework.web.servlet.view.InternalResourceViewResolver org.springframework.web.servlet.FlashMapManager=org.springframework.web.servlet.support.SessionFlashMapManager
从上面的定义中我们可以看出来，在使用SpringMVC时，即使你不定义HandlerMapping，SpringMVC默认也会给你定义一个BeanNameUrlHandlerMapping和DefaultAnnotationHandlerMapping。HandlerAdapter和ViewResolver也是一样的。还有一些其它的默认策略也请参考DispatcherServlet.properties中。如果默认策略不能满足你的要求，那么我们可以在bean容器中定义我们自己对应的实现，这个时候就会应用我们自己的实现了。我们拿初始化HandlerMapping为例，来看一下DispatcherServlet的源码。
/**
* Initialize the HandlerMappings used by this class.
* <p>If no HandlerMapping beans are defined in the BeanFactory for this namespace,
* we default to BeanNameUrlHandlerMapping.
*/
private void initHandlerMappings(ApplicationContext context) {
this.handlerMappings = null;
if (this.detectAllHandlerMappings) {
// Find all HandlerMappings in the ApplicationContext, including ancestor contexts.
Map<String, HandlerMapping> matchingBeans =
BeanFactoryUtils.beansOfTypeIncludingAncestors(context, HandlerMapping.class, true, false);
if (!matchingBeans.isEmpty()) {
this.handlerMappings = new ArrayList<HandlerMapping>(matchingBeans.values());
// We keep HandlerMappings in sorted order.
OrderComparator.sort(this.handlerMappings);
}
}
else {
try {
HandlerMapping hm = context.getBean(HANDLER_MAPPING_BEAN_NAME, HandlerMapping.class);
this.handlerMappings = Collections.singletonList(hm);
}
catch (NoSuchBeanDefinitionException ex) {
// Ignore, we'll add a default HandlerMapping later.
}
}
// Ensure we have at least one HandlerMapping, by registering
// a default HandlerMapping if no other mappings are found.
if (this.handlerMappings == null) {
this.handlerMappings = getDefaultStrategies(context, HandlerMapping.class);
if (logger.isDebugEnabled()) {
logger.debug("No HandlerMappings found in servlet '" + getServletName() + "': using default");
}
}
}
从源码中我们可以看到，SpringMVC先会从绑定的ApplicationContext中获取对应的HandlerMapping定义，如果没有取到就会调用getDefaultStrategies(context, HandlerMapping.class)从默认策略中获取。它的代码如下所示。
protected <T> List<T> getDefaultStrategies(ApplicationContext context, Class<T> strategyInterface) {
String key = strategyInterface.getName();
String value = defaultStrategies.getProperty(key);
if (value != null) {
String[] classNames = StringUtils.commaDelimitedListToStringArray(value);
List<T> strategies = new ArrayList<T>(classNames.length);
for (String className : classNames) {
try {
Class<?> clazz = ClassUtils.forName(className, DispatcherServlet.class.getClassLoader());
Object strategy = createDefaultStrategy(context, clazz);
strategies.add((T) strategy);
}
catch (ClassNotFoundException ex) {
throw new BeanInitializationException(
"Could not find DispatcherServlet's default strategy class [" + className +
"] for interface [" + key + "]", ex);
}
catch (LinkageError err) {
throw new BeanInitializationException(
"Error loading DispatcherServlet's default strategy class [" + className +
"] for interface [" + key + "]: problem with class file or dependent class", err);
}
}
return strategies;
}
else {
return new LinkedList<T>();
}
}
其中的defaultStrategies就是对应的DispatcherServlet.properties文件中的内容。
private static final String DEFAULT_STRATEGIES_PATH = "DispatcherServlet.properties";
private static final Properties defaultStrategies;
static {
// Load default strategy implementations from properties file.
// This is currently strictly internal and not meant to be customized
// by application developers.
try {
ClassPathResource resource = new ClassPathResource(DEFAULT_STRATEGIES_PATH, DispatcherServlet.class);
defaultStrategies = PropertiesLoaderUtils.loadProperties(resource);
}
catch (IOException ex) {
throw new IllegalStateException("Could not load 'DispatcherServlet.properties': " + ex.getMessage());
}
}
