Spring MVC is the ideal tool to build modern web applications on the server side. With the arrival of Spring Boot, developers can really focus on the code and deliver great value, leveraging the rich Spring ecosystem with minimal configuration. Spring makes it simple to create RESTful applications, interact with social services, communicate with modern databases, secure your system, and make your code modular and easy to test. It is also easy to deploy the result on different cloud providers. This book starts all the necessary topics in starting a Spring MVC-based application. Moving ahead it explains how to design model objects to handle file objects. save files into a data store and how Spring MVC behaves when an application deals with uploading and downloading files. Further it highlights form transactions and the user of Validation Framework as the tool in validating data input. It shows how to create a customer feedback system which does not require a username or password to log in. It will show you the soft side of Spring MVC where layout and presentation are given importance. Later it will discuss how to use Spring Web Flow on top of Spring MVC to create better web applications. Moving ahead, it will teach you how create an Invoice Module that receives and transport data using Web Services By the end of the book you will be able to create efficient and flexible real-time web applications using all the frameworks in Spring MVC.

Variable scopes

Spring Web Flow creates variables or objects under scopes. These scopes are just similar to JEE scope components, which determine the time frame of when to access these variables. Under Spring Web Flow, there are five scopes that can be mapped to a newly created object:

  • flowScope: Assigns a flow variable; variables under this scope get allocated when a flow starts and destroyed when the flow ends.; any objects stored in flow scope need to be serializable:

            <evaluate expression= "addCartProducts.retrieveProductList
                              (flowScope.cartProducts)" />

  • conversationScope: Assigns a conversation variable; variables under this scope are used whenever a top-level needs to generate objects to be accessed by its sub-flows; they are destroyed when the top-level flow ends; conversation scope must be serializable.

  • viewScope: Assigns a view variable; these are variables that can only be referenced within the <view-state>; these variables get allocated...
