How to get this data in the controller to process? What changes should I make in jsp and in the method?
#RequestMapping(value = "/perso")
public class PersoController {
#Autowired
private PersoService persoService;
private List<DocumentType> docTypeList = null;
#RequestMapping(value = "/list")
public String persoList(Principal principal, Model model) {
Authentication authentication = SecurityContextHolder.getContext().getAuthentication();
docTypeList = persoService.persoList(authentication, principal);
model.addAttribute("documentList", docTypeList);
return "admin/perso/list";
}
#RequestMapping(value = "/search", method = RequestMethod.POST)
public void searchOrders( ){
}
}
thanks in advance

Answer 1

It's better to use #RequestParam in your controller.
For Example:
#RequestMapping(value = "/bar")
public String testAction(#RequestParam String fieldName) {
//Do whatever you want to fieldName
return "view";
}
For your case
#RequestMapping(value = "/search", method = RequestMethod.POST)
public void searchOrders(#RequestParam String statusCode ,#RequestParam String typeCode)
{
//Do whatever you want
}
