How to use @RestController in Spring 4?
Asked on March 22, 2015
Hi Friends,
In Spring 4 new feature, a new annotation @RestController
has been introduced. How to use @RestController in Spring 4? Thanks

@RestController is itself annotated by @Controller and @ResponseBody annotation. @RestController is used for REST web services. Now the web service method need not to use @ResponseBody, if our service class has been annotated with @RestController. We can create our web service class as
@RestController
@RequestMapping("/data")
public class PersonController {
}
Within this class we can create our web service method as
@RequestMapping("/person")
public Person getPersonDetail(@RequestParam(value = "id",required = false,
defaultValue = "0") Integer id) {
return person;
}
Find the URL for complete example of @RestController in Spring 4.
