对于ModelView的使用，可以将一些属性放入其中，再在页面上通过JSTL等方式获取，解析这些属性的工作就是在上面源码中的createMergedOutputModel方法完成的。源码如下：
protected Map<String, Object> createMergedOutputModel(Map<String, ?> model, HttpServletRequest request,
HttpServletResponse response) {
@SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
Map<String, Object> pathVars = (this.exposePathVariables ?
(Map<String, Object>) request.getAttribute(View.PATH_VARIABLES) : null);
// Consolidate static and dynamic model attributes.
int size = this.staticAttributes.size();
size += (model != null ? model.size() : 0);
size += (pathVars != null ? pathVars.size() : 0);
Map<String, Object> mergedModel = new LinkedHashMap<String, Object>(size);
mergedModel.putAll(this.staticAttributes);
if (pathVars != null) {
mergedModel.putAll(pathVars);
}
if (model != null) {
mergedModel.putAll(model);
}
// Expose RequestContext?
if (this.requestContextAttribute != null) {
mergedModel.put(this.requestContextAttribute, createRequestContext(request, response, mergedModel));
}
return mergedModel;
}
protected void renderMergedOutputModel(
Map<String, Object> model, HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws Exception {
// 将model中的数据以属性方式设置到request中
exposeModelAsRequestAttributes(model, request);
// Expose helpers as request attributes, if any.
exposeHelpers(request);
// Determine the path for the request dispatcher.
String dispatcherPath = prepareForRendering(request, response);
// Obtain a RequestDispatcher for the target resource (typically a JSP).
RequestDispatcher rd = getRequestDispatcher(request, dispatcherPath);
if (rd == null) {
throw new ServletException("Could not get RequestDispatcher for [" + getUrl() +
"]: Check that the corresponding file exists within your web application archive!");
}
// If already included or response already committed, perform include, else forward.
if (useInclude(request, response)) {
response.setContentType(getContentType());
if (logger.isDebugEnabled()) {
logger.debug("Including resource [" + getUrl() + "] in InternalResourceView '" + getBeanName() + "'");
}
rd.include(request, response);
}
