Spring MVC Questions
1. What is Spring MVC?
o Spring MVC is a module of the Spring Framework
used to build web applications. It follows the Model-
View-Controller design pattern to separate application
logic, UI, and data handling.
2. What are the main components of Spring MVC?
o DispatcherServlet: Front controller that dispatches
requests.
o Controller: Handles user requests.
o Model: Carries data between controller and view.
o View: Represents the UI (e.g., JSP, Thymeleaf).
3. How does Spring MVC work?
o The DispatcherServlet intercepts requests, maps them
to the appropriate controller using handler mappings,
processes the request, and returns a view.
4. What is DispatcherServlet in Spring MVC?
o It is the front controller in Spring MVC that handles
all incoming HTTP requests and routes them to the
appropriate handler methods.
5. What is @Controller in Spring MVC?
o @Controller is used to define a class as a Spring MVC
controller to handle web requests.
6. What is @RequestMapping?
o It maps HTTP requests to handler methods in a
controller. Example:
@RequestMapping(value = "/home", method =
RequestMethod.GET)
public String home() {
return "home"; // View name
}
7. Difference between @Controller and @RestController?
o @Controller: Used to return views (e.g., JSPs or
HTML).
o @RestController: Combines @Controller and
@ResponseBody to return JSON or XML data
directly.
8.What is the role of ViewResolver in Spring MVC?
o A ViewResolver maps logical view names returned by
controllers to actual view files (e.g., JSP templates).
