Deprecated. as of Spring 3.0, in favor of annotated controllers

    @Deprecated
    public class CancellableFormController

extends SimpleFormController

Extension of `SimpleFormController` that supports "cancellation" of form processing. By default, this controller looks for a given parameter in the request, identified by the `cancelParamKey`. If this parameter is present, then the controller will return the configured `cancelView`, otherwise processing is passed back to the superclass.``

Workflow (in addition to the superclass):

1. Call to `processFormSubmission` which calls `isCancelRequest(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest)` to see if the incoming request is to cancel the current form entry. By default, `isCancelRequest(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest)` returns `true` if the configured `cancelParamKey` exists in the request. This behavior can be overridden in subclasses.
2. If `isCancelRequest(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest)` returns `false`, then the controller will delegate all processing back to `SimpleFormController`, otherwise it will call the `onCancel(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest, javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse, java.lang.Object)` version with all parameters. By default, that method will delegate to the `onCancel(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest, javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse, java.lang.Object)` version with just the command object, which will in turn simply return the configured `cancelView`. This behavior can be overridden in subclasses.

Thanks to Erwin Bolwidt for submitting the original prototype of such a cancellable form controller!

    public CancellableFormController()

  Deprecated.

Method Detail

  Deprecated.
  Set the key of the request parameter used to identify a cancel request. Default is "_cancel".

  The parameter is recognized both when sent as a plain parameter ("_cancel") or when triggered by an image button ("_cancel.x").

### getCancelParamKey

    public final java.lang.String getCancelParamKey()

  Deprecated.
  Return the key of the request parameter used to identify a cancel request.

    public final void setCancelView(java.lang.String cancelView)

  Deprecated.
  Sets the name of the cancel view.

### getCancelView

    public final java.lang.String getCancelView()

  Deprecated.
  Gets the name of the cancel view.

### isFormSubmission

    protected boolean isFormSubmission(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest request)

  Deprecated.
  Consider an explicit cancel request as a form submission too.

  Overrides:
    `isFormSubmission` in class `AbstractFormController`
  Parameters:
    `request` - current HTTP request
  Returns:
    if the request represents a form submission
  See Also:
    `isCancelRequest(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest)`

### suppressValidation

    protected boolean suppressValidation(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest request,
                                         java.lang.Object command)

  Deprecated.
  Suppress validation for an explicit cancel request too.

  Overrides:
    `suppressValidation` in class `SimpleFormController`
  Parameters:
    `request` - current HTTP request
    `command` - the command object to validate
  Returns:
    whether to suppress validation for the given request
  See Also:
    `isCancelRequest(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest)`

### processFormSubmission

    protected ModelAndView processFormSubmission(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest request,
                                                 javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse response,
                                                 java.lang.Object command,
                                                 BindException errors)
                                          throws java.lang.Exception

  Deprecated.
  This implementation first checks to see if the incoming is a cancel request, through a call to `isCancelRequest(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest)`. If so, control is passed to `onCancel(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest, javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse, java.lang.Object)`; otherwise, control is passed up to `SimpleFormController.processFormSubmission(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest, javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse, java.lang.Object, org.springframework.validation.BindException)`.

  Overrides:
    `processFormSubmission` in class `SimpleFormController`
  Parameters:
    `request` - current servlet request
    `response` - current servlet response
    `command` - form object with request parameters bound onto it
    `errors` - holder without errors (subclass can add errors if it wants to)
  Returns:
    the prepared model and view, or `null`
  Throws:
    `java.lang.Exception` - in case of errors
  See Also:
    `isCancelRequest(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest)`, `onCancel(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest, javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse, Object)`, `SimpleFormController.processFormSubmission(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest, javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse, java.lang.Object, org.springframework.validation.BindException)`

### isCancelRequest

    protected boolean isCancelRequest(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest request)

  Deprecated.
  Determine whether the incoming request is a request to cancel the processing of the current form.

  By default, this method returns `true` if a parameter matching the configured `cancelParamKey` is present in the request, otherwise it returns `false`. Subclasses may override this method to provide custom logic to detect a cancel request.

  The parameter is recognized both when sent as a plain parameter ("_cancel") or when triggered by an image button ("_cancel.x").

  Parameters:
    `request` - current HTTP request
  See Also:
    `setCancelParamKey(java.lang.String)`, `PARAM_CANCEL`

### onCancel

    protected ModelAndView onCancel(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest request,
                                    javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse response,
                                    java.lang.Object command)
                             throws java.lang.Exception

  Deprecated.
  Callback method for handling a cancel request. Called if `isCancelRequest(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest)` returns `true`.

  Default implementation delegates to `onCancel(Object)` to return the configured `cancelView`. Subclasses may override either of the two methods to build a custom `ModelAndView` that may contain model parameters used in the cancel view.

  If you simply want to move the user to a new view and you don't want to add additional model parameters, use `setCancelView(String)` rather than overriding an `onCancel` method.

  Parameters:
    `request` - current servlet request
    `response` - current servlet response
    `command` - form object with request parameters bound onto it
  Returns:
    the prepared model and view, or `null`
  Throws:
    `java.lang.Exception` - in case of errors
  See Also:
    `isCancelRequest(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest)`, `onCancel(Object)`, `setCancelView(java.lang.String)`

### onCancel

    protected ModelAndView onCancel(java.lang.Object command)
                             throws java.lang.Exception

  Deprecated.
  Simple `onCancel` version. Called by the default implementation of the `onCancel` version with all parameters.

  Default implementation returns eturns the configured `cancelView`. Subclasses may override this method to build a custom `ModelAndView` that may contain model parameters used in the cancel view.

  If you simply want to move the user to a new view and you don't want to add additional model parameters, use `setCancelView(String)` rather than overriding an `onCancel` method.

  Parameters:
    `command` - form object with request parameters bound onto it
  Returns:
    the prepared model and view, or `null`
  Throws:
    `java.lang.Exception` - in case of errors
  See Also:
    `onCancel(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest, javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse, Object)`, `setCancelView(java.lang.String)`
