Generate PDF

以下示例说明如何使用Spring Web MVC Framework生成PDF。 首先，让我们使用一个可用的Eclipse IDE，并遵循以下步骤使用Spring Web Framework开发基于动态表单的Web应用程序。

PDFController.java

package cn.xnip;
import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.Map;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse;
import org.springframework.web.servlet.ModelAndView;
import org.springframework.web.servlet.mvc.AbstractController;
public class PDFController extends AbstractController {
   @Override
   protected ModelAndView handleRequestInternal(HttpServletRequest request,
      HttpServletResponse response) throws Exception {
      //user data
      Map<String,String> userData = new HashMap<String,String>();
      userData.put("1", "Mahesh");
      userData.put("2", "Suresh");
      userData.put("3", "Ramesh");
      userData.put("4", "Naresh");
      return new ModelAndView("UserSummary","userData",userData);
   }
}

UserExcelView.java

package cn.xnip;
import java.util.Map;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse;
import org.springframework.web.servlet.view.document.AbstractPdfView;
import com.lowagie.text.Document;
import com.lowagie.text.Table;
import com.lowagie.text.pdf.PdfWriter;
public class UserPDFView extends AbstractPdfView {
   protected void buildPdfDocument(Map<String, Object> model, Document document,
      PdfWriter pdfWriter, HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
      throws Exception {
      Map<String,String> userData = (Map<String,String>) model.get("userData");
      Table table = new Table(2);
      table.addCell("Roll No");
      table.addCell("Name");
      for (Map.Entry<String, String> entry : userData.entrySet()) {
         table.addCell(entry.getKey());
         table.addCell(entry.getValue());
      }
      document.add(table);
   }
}

TestWeb-servlet.xml

<beans xmlns = "http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
   xmlns:context = "http://www.springframework.org/schema/context"   
   xmlns:xsi = "http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
   xmlns:mvc = "http://www.springframework.org/schema/mvc"
   xsi:schemaLocation = "
   http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans     
   http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans-3.0.xsd
   http://www.springframework.org/schema/context 
   http://www.springframework.org/schema/context/spring-context-3.0.xsd
   http://www.springframework.org/schema/mvc
   http://www.springframework.org/schema/mvc/spring-mvc-3.0.xsd">
   <bean class = "org.springframework.web.servlet.mvc.support.ControllerClassNameHandlerMapping" />
   <bean class = "cn.xnip.PDFController" />
   <bean class = "org.springframework.web.servlet.view.XmlViewResolver">
      <property name = "location">
         <value>/WEB-INF/views.xml</value>
      </property>
   </bean>
</beans>

views.xml

<beans xmlns = "http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
   xmlns:context = "http://www.springframework.org/schema/context"
   xmlns:xsi = "http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
   xsi:schemaLocation = "
   http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans     
   http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans-3.0.xsd
   http://www.springframework.org/schema/context 
   http://www.springframework.org/schema/context/spring-context-3.0.xsd">
   <bean id = "UserSummary" class = "cn.xnip.UserPDFView"></bean>
</beans>

在这里，我们创建了一个PDFController和UserPDFView。 iText库处理PDF文件格式，并将数据转换为PDF文档。

完成创建源文件和配置文件后，导出应用程序。 右键单击您的应用程序，使用Export → WAR File选项并将TestWeb.war文件保存在Tomcat的webapps文件夹中。

现在，启动Tomcat服务器并确保您可以使用标准浏览器从webapps文件夹访问其他网页。 我们也可以尝试以下URL - http://localhost:8080/TestWeb/pdf ，如果一切按计划进行，我们将看到以下屏幕。
