Class MVCServlet

java.lang.Object
  javax.servlet.GenericServlet
      javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet
          info.magnolia.cms.servlets.MVCServlet

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable, javax.servlet.Servlet, javax.servlet.ServletConfig

public abstract class MVCServlet
extends javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet

The servlet gets a MVCHandler with the method getHandler. The method getCommand of this returned handler is called to map the request parameters to a command. Then execute() is called which uses reflection to call a method. Each method returns a string defining the view. After that, renderHtml is called.

Make a subclass to provide you own handler(s).
