I currently have one controller that handles both GET and POST for URL groups:
@Controller
public class RestGroups {
...
@RequestMapping(method = RequestMethod.GET, value = "/groups")
@ResponseBody
public GroupsDto groups() {
return new GroupsDto(getGroups());
}
@RequestMapping(method = RequestMethod.POST, value = "/groups", headers = "Accept=application/xml")
@ResponseBody
public GroupsDto postGroup(@RequestBody GroupDto groupDto) {
groupSaver.save(groupDto.createEntity());
return groups();
}
Now I would like to have TWO controllers, both assigned for same URL but each for different method, something like below:
@Controller
public class GetGroups {
...
@RequestMapping(method = RequestMethod.GET, value = "/groups")
@ResponseBody
public GroupsDto groups() {
return new GroupsDto(getGroups());
}
...
}
@Controller
public class PostGroup {
...
@RequestMapping(method = RequestMethod.POST, value = "/groups", headers = "Accept=application/xml")
@ResponseBody
public GroupsDto postGroup(@RequestBody GroupDto groupDto) {
groupSaver.save(groupDto.createEntity());
return groups();
}
...
}
Is it possible? Because now I get Spring exception that one URL cannot be handled by two different controllers. Is there a workaround for this issue? I really would like to separate those two completely different actions into two separate classes.
