i am trying to display a pdf in my browser with spring. my problem is that the browser downloads the file instead of displaying it. this is my code:
@RequestMapping(value="/getpdf1", method=RequestMethod.GET)
public ResponseEntity<byte[]> getPDF1() {
HttpHeaders headers = new HttpHeaders();
headers.setContentType(MediaType.parseMediaType("application/pdf"));
String filename = "pdf1.pdf";
headers.add("content-disposition", "inline;filename=" + filename);
headers.setContentDispositionFormData(filename, filename);
headers.setCacheControl("must-revalidate, post-check=0, pre-check=0");
ResponseEntity<byte[]> response = new ResponseEntity<byte[]>(pdf1Bytes, headers, HttpStatus.OK);
return response;
}
i am looking forward to your answers! thanks
