Spring MVC InternalResourceViewResolver tutorial with example

What is InternalResourceViewResolver

InternalResourceViewResolver uses prexif and suffix to locate view page

prefix + viewname (return from ModelAndView object) + suffix = url of view page

BTW, it's good practice to put JSP files that just serve as views under WEB-INF, to hide them from direct access (e.g. via a manually entered URL). Only controllers will be able to access them then.

Note: When chaining ViewResolvers, an InternalResourceViewResolver always needs to be last, as it will attempt to resolve any view name, no matter whether the underlying resource actually exists.
