I had been using the WebMvcConfigurerAdapter for a while. Since i could not get all the registered interceptors with the method getInterceptors(), i have switched to WebMvcConfigurationSupport, which has lot of default registered Spring Beans like ContentNegotiationManager, ExceptionHandlerExceptionResolver usw.
Now i have realised that, the very handy DomainClassConverter (which converts the domain class ids to domain class objects by using a CrudRepository) is not registered by default, although i use the annotation @EnableSpringDataWebSupport on my WebConfig class.
When i define this bean explicitly like this, it works then.
@EnableSpringDataWebSupport
@Configuration
public class WebConfig extends WebMvcConfigurationSupport {
@Bean
public DomainClassConverter<?> domainClassConverter() {
return new DomainClassConverter<FormattingConversionService>(mvcConversionService());
}
}
But why EnableSpringDataWebSupport does not work with WebMvcConfigurationSupport?
