Class Overview
Java 5 enumeration of HTTP request methods. Intended for use
with the RequestMapping#method() attribute of the
RequestMapping
annotation.
Note that, by default, DispatcherServlet
supports GET, HEAD, POST, PUT and DELETE only. DispatcherServlet will
process TRACE and OPTIONS with the default HttpServlet behavior unless
explicitly told to dispatch those request types as well: Check out
the "dispatchOptionsRequest" and "dispatchTraceRequest" properties,
switching them to "true" if necessary.
