Redirect Request Parameters

How do I controll the request parameters that are sent with a RedirectView?

Hi,

When you use redirect, Spring will take your model and add it to the request as request parameters, so you could create a new model and add 'otherId' to it.

For example:

import java.util.HashMap;
import javax.servlet.http.*;
import org.springframework.validation.BindException;
import org.springframework.web.bind.RequestUtils;
import org.springframework.web.servlet.ModelAndView;
...
protected ModelAndView onSubmit(HttpServletRequest request,	
    HttpServletResponse response, Object command, BindException errors)  
    throws Exception {

    Map model = new HashMap();
    model.put("otherId", RequestUtils.getLongParameter(request, "otherId");
    return new ModelAndView(getSuccessView(), model);
}

The successview for your controller should be defined as follows:

<bean id="resequencableListController"
  class="localhost.ResequencableListController">
...
<property name="successView" value="redirect:someOtherForm.html"/>
</bean>

Redirect Request Parameters

I would like to be able to modify my successViews in the following ways (preferably both).

<bean id="resequencableListController"
class="localhost.ResequencableListController">
<property name="resequencableListBo" ref="resequencableListBo"/>
<property name="formView"
value="resequencableList"/>
<property name="successView"
value="redirect:someOtherForm.html?otherId=${other Id}"/>
</bean>

In the previous example, I'd like "${otherId}" to be replaced with the request parameter "otherId". Or,

<form method="post" action="/resequencableList.html">
<input type="hidden" name="successView" value="redirect:someOtherForm.html?otherId=${other Id}"/>
...
</form>

In the previous example, I'd like the request attribute "successView" to be used as the successView.

Which classes should I update to make these changes globally?
