/**
 * <p>Trivial controller that always returns a named view. The view

 * controller offers an alternative to sending a request straight to a view
 * such as a JSP. The advantage here is, that you're decoupling the controller
 * and the view, letter the some the configuration determine (instead of
 * the controller) the viewtechnology.</p>
 *
 * <p>An alternative to the ParameterizableViewController is of the
 * {@link org.springframework.web.servlet.mvc.multiaction MultiAction controllers},
 * some of which allow the same behavior, but then for more views at in one
 * controller.</p>
