Can any one tell me how I can return string message from controller?
If i just return a string from a controller method then spring mvc treating it as a jsp view name.
Annotate your method in controller with @ResponseBody:
@ResponseBody
@RequestMapping(value="/controller", method=GET) @ResponseBody public String foo() { return "Response!"; }
From: 15.3.2.6 Mapping the response body with the @ResponseBody annotation:
The @ResponseBody annotation [...] can be put on a method and indicates that the return type should be written straight to the HTTP response body (and not placed in a Model, or interpreted as a view name).
