/**
* {@link org.springframework.web.servlet.mvc.Controller Controller}
* implementation that allows multiple request types to be handled by the same
* class. Subclasses of this class can handle several different types of
* request with methods of the form
*
* <pre class="code">public (ModelAndView | Map | String | void) actionName(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response);
*
* A Map return value indicates a model that is supposed to be passed to a default view
* (determined through a {@link org.springframework.web.servlet.RequestToViewNameTranslator}).
* A String return value indicates the name of a view to be rendered without a specific model.
*
* <p>May take a third parameter (of type {@link HttpSession}) in which an
* existing session will be required, or a third parameter of an arbitrary
* class that gets treated as the command (that is, an instance of the class
* gets created, and request parameters get bound to it)
*
* <p>These methods can throw any kind of exception, but should only let
* propagate those that they consider fatal, or which their class or superclass
* is prepared to catch by implementing an exception handler.
*
* <p>When returning just a {@link Map} instance view name translation will be
* used to generate the view name. The configured
* {@link org.springframework.web.servlet.RequestToViewNameTranslator} will be
* used to determine the view name.
*
* <p>When returning void a return value of null is
* assumed meaning that the handler method is responsible for writing the
* response directly to the supplied {@link HttpServletResponse}.
*
* <p>This model allows for rapid coding, but loses the advantage of
* compile-time checking. It is similar to a Struts <code>DispatchAction,
* but more sophisticated. Also supports delegation to another object.
*
* <p>An implementation of the {@link MethodNameResolver} interface defined in
* this package should return a method name for a given request, based on any
* aspect of the request, such as its URL or an "action" parameter. The actual
* strategy can be configured via the "methodNameResolver" bean property, for
* each <code>MultiActionController.
*
* <p>The default MethodNameResolver is
* {@link InternalPathMethodNameResolver}; further included strategies are
* {@link PropertiesMethodNameResolver} and {@link ParameterMethodNameResolver}.
*
* <p>Subclasses can implement custom exception handler methods with names such
* as:
*
* <pre class="code">public ModelAndView anyMeaningfulName(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response, ExceptionClass exception);
*
* The third parameter can be any subclass or {@link Exception} or
* {@link RuntimeException}.
*
* <p>There can also be an optional xxxLastModified method for
* handlers, of signature:
*
* <pre class="code">public long anyMeaningfulNameLastModified(HttpServletRequest request)
*
* If such a method is present, it will be invoked. Default return from
* <code>getLastModified is -1, meaning that the content must always be
* regenerated.
*
* <p>Note that all handler methods need to be public and that
* method overloading is <i>not allowed.
*
* <p>See also the description of the workflow performed by
* {@link AbstractController the superclass} (in that section of the class
* level Javadoc entitled 'workflow').
*
* <p>Note: For maximum data binding flexibility, consider direct usage of a
* {@link ServletRequestDataBinder} in your controller method, instead of relying
* on a declared command argument. This allows for full control over the entire
* binder setup and usage, including the invocation of {@link Validator Validators}
* and the subsequent evaluation of binding/validation errors.
