configuring a SimpleUrlHandlerMapping through a schema [SPR-2764]

[spring-projects-issues]

Harold Neiper opened SPR-2764 and commented

I was wondering if there was already schema support for SimpleUrlHandlerMapping so started searching before I did it myself. Anyhow came across the fisheye site at this url:
http://fisheye1.cenqua.com/browse/springframework/spring/src/org/springframework/web/servlet/config

And what I found interested me in that the "extensible xml authoring" was already there for this handler mapping type. (Thinking to myself - sweet!) However, I am unable to find these files and schemas in the final release of 2.0. Am I missing something or were they just not released or wont be released?

Thanks, Harold Neiper

HI Harold

The custom tags for MVC configuration are a work in progress. They will be released, probably (don't quote me) in the Spring 2.1 timeframe.

Cheers

Hi

After some discussion internally it has been decided to 'shelve' the MVC-specific tags indefinitely (or until enough folks in the community vote on this issue). The reason for shelving this issue (for now) is that there doesn't seem to be enough 'value-add' provided by these new tags to warrant doing them, simple as that.

Cheers
Rick
