/**
 * Wrapper for a JSP or other resource within the same web application.
 * Exposes model objects as request attributes and forwards the request to
 * the specified resource URL using a {@link javax.servlet.RequestDispatcher}.
 *
 * <p>A URL for this view is supposed to specify a resource within the web
 * application, suitable for RequestDispatcher's {@code forward} or
 * {@code include} method.
 *
 * <p>If operating within an already included request or within a response that
 * has already been committed, this view will fall back to an include instead of
 * a forward. This can be enforced by calling {@code response.flushBuffer()}
 * (which will commit the response) before rendering the view.
 *
 * <p>Typical usage with {@link InternalResourceViewResolver} looks as follows,
 * from the perspective of the DispatcherServlet context definition:
 *
 * <pre class="code">&lt;bean id="viewResolver" class="org.springframework.web.servlet.view.InternalResourceViewResolver"&gt;
 *   &lt;property name="prefix" value="/WEB-INF/jsp/"/&gt;
 *   &lt;property name="suffix" value=".jsp"/&gt;
 * &lt;/bean&gt;</pre>
 *
 * Every view name returned from a handler will be translated to a JSP
 * resource (for example: "myView" -> "/WEB-INF/jsp/myView.jsp"), using
 * this view class by default.
