ViewResolver using Java annotation

Question

Is it possible in Spring 3.1.1 to configure a view resolver using Java annotations?

I am done with all configurations using Java annotations, but I am stuck at view resolver.

Code

package com;  import org.springframework.context.annotation.Bean; import org.springframework.context.annotation.ComponentScan; import org.springframework.context.annotation.Configuration; import org.springframework.jdbc.datasource.DriverManagerDataSource; import javax.sql.DataSource; import org.springframework.jdbc.datasource.DataSourceTransactionManager; import com.*; import org.springframework.web.servlet.view.InternalResourceViewResolver; import org.springframework.web.servlet.view.UrlBasedViewResolver; import org.springframework.web.servlet.view.JstlView;  @Configuration @ComponentScan("com") public class AppConfig {     {           //Other bean declarations     }      @Bean     public UrlBasedViewResolver urlBasedViewResolver()     {         UrlBasedViewResolver res = new InternalResourceViewResolver();         res.setViewClass(JstlView.class);         res.setPrefix("/WEB-INF/");         res.setSuffix(".jsp");          return res;     } } 

I used this code and ran the application, but it's not returning the appropriate view. However, if I configure a viewresolver in the app-servlet.xml file, it works fine.

Your class should extend WebMvcConfigurerAdapter class. please have a look at below example

@Configuration @ComponentScan(basePackages="com") @EnableWebMvc public class MvcConfiguration extends WebMvcConfigurerAdapter{      @Bean     public ViewResolver getViewResolver(){         InternalResourceViewResolver resolver = new InternalResourceViewResolver();         resolver.setPrefix("/WEB-INF/views/");         resolver.setSuffix(".jsp");         return resolver;     } }
