Processing Sequence of DispatcherServlet
In this section, you will get to know about the processing sequence of DispatcherServlet.
After the configuring DispatcherServlet, when the request comes, the DispatcherServlet caught the request and starts processing the request in the following order :
- First the WebApplicationContext is searched and it is bound in
the request as an attribute.
- The locale resolver and the theme resolver is bound to the request to
determine the locale and theme during request processing.
- The DispatcherServlet searches suitable handler and consult
with it to call the appropriate Controller. The Controller process the
request using appropriate service method and set model data and returns the
view name to the DispatcherServlet.
- The Front controller afterwards resolves the view with the help of
View Resolver and passes the model data to the view, to finally render
the view on the browser.
