FreeMarkerView

<init>

A View implementation that uses the FreeMarker template engine.

Depends on a single FreeMarkerConfig object such as FreeMarkerConfigurer being accessible in the application context. Alternatively set the FreeMarker configuration can be set directly on this class via #setConfiguration.

The url property is the location of the FreeMarker template relative to the FreeMarkerConfigurer's templateLoaderPath.

Note: Spring's FreeMarker support requires FreeMarker 2.3 or higher.

afterPropertiesSet

checkResourceExists

Check that the FreeMarker template used for this view exists and is valid.

Can be overridden to customize the behavior, for example in case of multiple templates to be rendered into a single view.

setConfiguration

Set the FreeMarker Configuration to be used by this view.

Typically this property is not set directly. Instead a single FreeMarkerConfig is expected in the Spring application context which is used to obtain the FreeMarker configuration.

setEncoding

Set the encoding of the FreeMarker template file.

By default FreeMarkerConfigurer sets the default encoding in the FreeMarker configuration to "UTF-8". It's recommended to specify the encoding in the FreeMarker Configuration rather than per template if all your templates share a common encoding.

getUrl

Return the URL of the resource that this view wraps.

setUrl

Set the URL of the resource that this view wraps. The URL must be appropriate for the concrete View implementation.
