Spring 5.0 Cookbook

Overview of this book

The Spring framework has been the go-to framework for Java developers for quite some time. It enhances modularity, provides more readable code, and enables the developer to focus on developing the application while the underlying framework takes care of transaction APIs, remote APIs, JMX APIs, and JMS APIs. The upcoming version of the Spring Framework has a lot to offer, above and beyond the platform upgrade to Java 9, and this book will show you all you need to know to overcome common to advanced problems you might face. Each recipe will showcase some old and new issues and solutions, right from configuring Spring 5.0 container to testing its components. Most importantly, the book will highlight concurrent processes, asynchronous MVC and reactive programming using Reactor Core APIs. Aside from the core components, this book will also include integration of third-party technologies that are mostly needed in building enterprise applications. By the end of the book, the reader will not only be well versed with the essential concepts of Spring, but will also have mastered its latest features in a solution-oriented manner.

Preface

Implementing page redirection and Flash-scoped beans


Creating lots of session-scoped beans causes some performance and security issues and is not always recommended in small-scale and simple applications. Most often than not, using request-scoped objects is still the best way to manage data among request transactions. But as shown in the previous recipe, it would be a lot easier to share data if session-scoped beans are used, especially when there are several redirections. Another solution to avoid sessions sharing data among request handlers will be illustrated by this recipe.

Getting started

Open again ch03 for some additional features of @Controller when it comes to page redirection. This recipe will focus on other methods of redirection than the usual HTML <form> submission and <a> hyperlink page jump.

How to do it...

To implement page redirection with Flash-scoped objects, apply these steps:

  1. To start our experiment on implementing page redirection, let us create a controller...
