    public abstract class AbstractCommandController

extends BaseCommandController

Abstract base class for custom command controllers.

Autopopulates a command bean from the request. For command validation, a validator (property inherited from `BaseCommandController`) can be used.

In most cases this command controller should not be used to handle form submission, because functionality for forms is offered in more detail by the `AbstractFormController` and its corresponding implementations.

Exposed configuration properties (and those defined by superclass):
none (so only those available in superclass).

Workflow (and that defined by superclass):

Method Detail

### handleRequestInternal

    protected ModelAndView handleRequestInternal(HttpServletRequest request,
                                                 HttpServletResponse response)
                                          throws Exception

  Description copied from class: `AbstractController`
  Template method. Subclasses must implement this. The contract is the same as for `handleRequest`.

  Specified by:
    `handleRequestInternal` in class `AbstractController`
  Throws:
    `Exception`
  See Also:
    `AbstractController.handleRequest(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest, javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse)`

### handle

    protected abstract ModelAndView handle(HttpServletRequest request,
                                           HttpServletResponse response,
                                           Object command,
                                           BindException errors)
                                    throws Exception

  Template method for request handling, providing a populated and validated instance of the command class, and an Errors object containing binding and validation errors.

  Call `errors.getModel()` to populate the ModelAndView model with the command and the Errors instance, under the specified command name, as expected by the "spring:bind" tag.

  Parameters:
    `request` - current HTTP request
    `response` - current HTTP response
    `command` - the populated command object
    `errors` - validation errors holder
  Returns:
    a ModelAndView to render, or `null` if handled directly
  Throws:
    `Exception`
  See Also:
    `Errors`, `BindException.getModel()`
