/**
* <p>Form controller that auto-populates a form bean from the request.
* This, either using a new bean instance per request, or using the same bean
* when the <code>sessionForm property has been set to true.
*
* <p>This class is the base class for both framework subclasses such as
* {@link SimpleFormController} and {@link AbstractWizardFormController}
* and custom form controllers that you may provide yourself.</p>
*
* <p>A form-input view and an after-submission view have to be provided
* programmatically. To provide those views using configuration properties,
* use the {@link SimpleFormController}.</p>
*
* <p>Subclasses need to override showForm to prepare the form view,
* and <code>processFormSubmission to handle submit requests. For the latter,
* binding errors like type mismatches will be reported via the given "errors" holder.
* For additional custom form validation, a validator (property inherited from
* BaseCommandController) can be used, reporting via the same "errors" instance.</p>
*
* <p>Comparing this Controller to the Struts notion of the Action
* shows us that with Spring, you can use any ordinary JavaBeans or database-
* backed JavaBeans without having to implement a framework-specific class
* (like Struts' <code>ActionForm). More complex properties of JavaBeans
* (Dates, Locales, but also your own application-specific or compound types)
* can be represented and submitted to the controller, by using the notion of
* a <code>java.beans.PropertyEditor. For more information on that
* subject, see the workflow of this controller and the explanation of the
* {@link BaseCommandController}.</p>
*
* <p>Workflow
* (<a href="BaseCommandController.html#workflow">and that defined by superclass):
* <ol>
* <li>The controller receives a request for a new form (typically a GET).
* <li>Call to {@link #formBackingObject formBackingObject()} which by default,
* returns an instance of the commandClass that has been configured
* (see the properties the superclass exposes), but can also be overridden
* to e.g. retrieve an object from the database (that needs to be modified
* using the form).</li>
* <li>Call to {@link #initBinder initBinder()} which allows you to register
* custom editors for certain fields (often properties of non-primitive
* or non-String types) of the command class. This will render appropriate
* Strings for those property values, e.g. locale-specific date strings.</li>
* <li>Only if bindOnNewForm is set to true, then
* {@link org.springframework.web.bind.ServletRequestDataBinder ServletRequestDataBinder}
* gets applied to populate the new form object with initial request parameters and the
* {@link #onBindOnNewForm(HttpServletRequest, Object, BindException)} callback method is
* called. <em>Note: any defined Validators are not applied at this point, to allow
* partial binding. However be aware that any Binder customizations applied via
* initBinder() (such as
* {@link org.springframework.validation.DataBinder#setRequiredFields(String[])} will
* still apply. As such, if using bindOnNewForm=true and initBinder() customizations are
* used to validate fields instead of using Validators, in the case that only some fields
* will be populated for the new form, there will potentially be some bind errors for
* missing fields in the errors object. Any view (JSP, etc.) that displays binder errors
* needs to be intelligent and for this case take into account whether it is displaying the
* initial form view or subsequent post results, skipping error display for the former.</li>
* <li>Call to {@link #showForm(HttpServletRequest, HttpServletResponse, BindException) showForm()}
* to return a View that should be rendered (typically the view that renders
* the form). This method has to be implemented in subclasses.</li>
* <li>The showForm() implementation will call {@link #referenceData referenceData()},
* which you can implement to provide any relevant reference data you might need
* when editing a form (e.g. a List of Locale objects you're going to let the
* user select one from).</li>
* <li>Model gets exposed and view gets rendered, to let the user fill in the form.
* <li>The controller receives a form submission (typically a POST).
* To use a different way of detecting a form submission, override the
* {@link #isFormSubmission isFormSubmission} method.
* </li>
* <li>If sessionForm is not set, {@link #formBackingObject formBackingObject()}
* is called to retrieve a form object. Otherwise, the controller tries to
* find the command object which is already bound in the session. If it cannot
* find the object, it does a call to {@link #handleInvalidSubmit handleInvalidSubmit}
* which - by default - tries to create a new form object and resubmit the form.</li>
* <li>The {@link org.springframework.web.bind.ServletRequestDataBinder ServletRequestDataBinder}
* gets applied to populate the form object with current request parameters.
* <li>Call to {@link #onBind onBind(HttpServletRequest, Object, Errors)} which allows
* you to do custom processing after binding but before validation (e.g. to manually
* bind request parameters to bean properties, to be seen by the Validator).</li>
* <li>If validateOnBinding is set, a registered Validator will be invoked.
* The Validator will check the form object properties, and register corresponding
* errors via the given {@link org.springframework.validation.Errors Errors}</li> object.
* <li>Call to {@link #onBindAndValidate onBindAndValidate()} which allows you
* to do custom processing after binding and validation (e.g. to manually
* bind request parameters, and to validate them outside a Validator).</li>
* <li>Call {@link #processFormSubmission(HttpServletRequest, HttpServletResponse,
* Object, BindException) processFormSubmission()} to process the submission, with
* or without binding errors. This method has to be implemented in subclasses.</li>
* </ol>
* </p>
*
* <p>In session form mode, a submission without an existing form object in the
* session is considered invalid, like in case of a resubmit/reload by the browser.
* The {@link #handleInvalidSubmit handleInvalidSubmit} method is invoked then,
* by default trying to resubmit. It can be overridden in subclasses to show
* corresponding messages or to redirect to a new form, in order to avoid duplicate
* submissions. The form object in the session can be considered a transaction
* token in that case.</p>
*
* <p>Note that views should never retrieve form beans from the session but always
* from the request, as prepared by the form controller. Remember that some view
* technologies like Velocity cannot even access a HTTP session.</p>
*
* <p>Exposed configuration properties
* (<a href="BaseCommandController.html#config">and those defined by superclass):
* <table border="1">
* <tr>
* <td>name |
* <td>default
* <td>description
* </tr>
* <tr>
* <td>bindOnNewForm
* <td>false
* <td>Indicates whether to bind servlet request parameters when

* bound on form submission attempts.</td>
* </tr>
* <tr>
* <td>sessionForm
* <td>false
* <td>Indicates whether the form object should be kept in the session
* when a user asks for a new form. This allows you e.g. to retrieve
* an object from the database, let the user edit it, and then persist
* it again. Otherwise, a new command object will be created for each
* request (even when showing the form again after validation errors).</td>
