package org.springframework.web.servlet.handler;

import org.springframework.web.method.HandlerMethod;

A strategy for assigning a name to a handler method's mapping.

The strategy can be configured on AbstractHandlerMethodMapping. It is used to assign a name to the mapping of every registered handler method. The names can then be queried via AbstractHandlerMethodMapping#getHandlerMethodsForMappingName.

Applications can build a URL to a controller method by name with the help of the static method MvcUriComponentsBuilder#fromMappingName or in JSPs through the "mvcUrl" function registered by the Spring tag library.
