Extract URL construction logic out of UrlTag [SPR-6828]

[spring-projects-issues]

Kenny MacLeod opened SPR-6828 and commented

I'd like to see the URL-creation logic extracted out of UrlTag into a standalone utility, more suitable for use within controller logic. This utility would essentially contain the logic currently held in urlTag.createUrl(). The tag need only collect the required information, then delegate to this utility.

Arjen, sending your way since you have plans for improvements to @Controller Response building in 3.1

UrlTag provides capabilities similar to those of the UriTemplate in the form of a JSP tag. Is there anything in the URL-creation logic of UrlTag that UriTemplate does not provide?

Actually, UriTemplate effectively resolves this issue. Please close.
