When the user submits the form (via a POST request), they should be
greeted in the selected language. Your new feature should:
public static method, createMessage, in the HelloController that takes a name as well as a language string. Based on the language string, you’ll display the proper greeting.@RequestMapping(value="hello", method = RequestMethod.POST)
@ResponseBody
public String helloPost(@RequestParam String name, @RequestParam String language) {
if (name == null) {
name = "World";
}
return createMessage(name, language);
// For a bonus mission, students can change this response text to look nicer.
// This is subjective, but students should be modifying the HTML of the response string.
}
public static String createMessage(String n, String l) {
String greeting = "";
if (l.equals("english")) {
greeting = "Hello";
}
else if (l.equals("french")) {
greeting = "Bonjour";
}
else if (l.equals("italian")) {
greeting = "Bonjourno";
}
else if (l.equals("spanish")) {
greeting = "Hola";
}
else if (l.equals("german")) {
greeting = "Hallo";
}
return greeting + " " + n;
}
