Just follow the following steps to get the Spring MVC basic set up done using Maven.
1. create following folders on one of your drives
[project] ->src -> main -> java — folder for the source code
[project] ->src
-> main -> resources — folder for the resources, xmls, property files etc….
[project] -> src
-> main ->webapp — the root folder for the web application, will conteain the web content,
pages, css, javascript files etc… and the web-inf folder
[project]->src->
test -> java -– The folder for the test source – junit test classes and anything related to junit testing
[project]->src->
test -> resources – The folder which will contain all resources for our tests.
2. Add the following POM.xml to the project Folder.
pom.xml
<?xml version="1.0"
encoding="UTF-8"?>
<project
xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd"

</project>
3. create web.xml in webapps/WEB-INF
<?xml version="1.0"
encoding="UTF-8"?>
<web-app
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee"
xmlns:web="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_2_5.xsd"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_2_5.xsd"
id="WebApp_ID" version="2.5">
<display-name>springTest</display-name>
<servlet>
<servlet-name>springapp</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>org.springframework.web.servlet.DispatcherServlet</servlet-class>
<load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>springapp</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>*.html</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
</web-app>
4. create a springapp-servlet.xml in WEB-INF
<?xml version="1.0"
encoding="UTF-8"?>
<beans
xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xmlns:context="http://www.springframework.org/schema/context"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans-2.5.xsd
http://www.springframework.org/schema/context http://www.springframework.org/schema/context/spring-context-3.0.xsd">
<!-- the application context definition for the springapp
DispatcherServlet -->
<!--
Scans within the base package of the application for @Components to
configure
as beans -->
<!--
@Controller, @Service, @Configuration, etc. -->
<context:component-scan
base-package="springtest" />
<bean
id="viewResolver"
class="org.springframework.web.servlet.view.InternalResourceViewResolver">
<property
name="prefix" value="/WEB-INF/jsp/" />
<property
name="suffix" value=".jsp" />
</bean>
</beans>
5. Create sample controller
package springtest.controllers;
import org.apache.log4j.Logger;
import
org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMapping;
import
org.springframework.stereotype.Controller;
import org.springframework.ui.Model;
@Controller
public class HelloController {
protected final Logger logger = Logger.getLogger(getClass());
@RequestMapping("/hello.html")
public String handleRequest(Model model) {
logger.debug("Returning index view");
model.addAttribute("message", "HELLO!!!");
return "hello";
}
}
6. create the needed jsp pages.
index.jsp in webapp
<%@ page language="java"
contentType="text/html; charset=UTF-8"
pageEncoding="UTF-8"%>
<%
response.sendRedirect("hello.html"); %>
hello.jsp in web-inf/jsp
<%@ page language="java"
contentType="text/html; charset=UTF-8"
pageEncoding="UTF-8"%>
<%@ taglib
uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core"
prefix="c" %>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD
HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<meta
http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;
charset=UTF-8">
<title>Hello page</title>
</head>
<body>
<c:out
value="${requestScope.message}"/>
</body>
</html>
Once done you can import this as Existing Maven Project to the IDE,do a maven build and run it on server.
Thanks for Reading....cheers... :-) :-)
