I have a stupid problem I have no idea why this is happening - view resolution fails if I have slashes in my mapping; I have this controller:
import org.springframework.stereotype.Controller;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.PathVariable;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMapping;
@Controller
public class PartialsController {
@RequestMapping ("/views/partials/{view}") // Doesn't work!
public String partial (@PathVariable ("view") String view) {
System.out.println ("\n\nVIEW=\"" + view + "\"\n\n");
return "partials/" + view;
}
@RequestMapping ("/partial-{view}-view") // Works!!!
public String test (@PathVariable ("view") String view) {
return partial (view);
}
@RequestMapping ("/views/partials/{view}/show.html") // Doesn't work!
public String test2 (@PathVariable ("view") String view) {
return partial (view);
}
}
Full stack trace is here: http://pastebin.com/CXwYd9i3 here's the top of it (I see my system.out in every case):
[DEBUG] : Could not complete request

I'd really like to use the first method, it just makes more sense for what I'm doing; much thanks in advance for any help!
P.S. Forgot to add, this is my Java Config:
@Override
public void onStartup (ServletContext servletContext) throws ServletException {
AnnotationConfigWebApplicationContext mvcContext = new AnnotationConfigWebApplicationContext ();
mvcContext.register (MvcConfiguration.class);
Dynamic dispatcher = servletContext.addServlet ("dispatcher", new DispatcherServlet (mvcContext));
dispatcher.setLoadOnStartup (1);
dispatcher.addMapping ("/");
}
