spring mvc controller equivallent javaee controller

Question

I used spring.

Is there an equivalent controller strategy for pure plain java-ee 6/7? Like there is spring controllers which take care of path params, request params, return types, redirecting, redirecting to views with a modelAndView object to carry data?

@Controller
class MyControllerClass {

      @RequestMapping...
      method(){
         ServiceCall()...
      //put something to modelAndView object here and redirect to jsp page.
      return "home"; // this will redirect data to home.jsp

      }
}

One idea would be to use the Jersey implementation of JAX-RS.

The controller would look like:

@Path("same_as_the_class_request_mapping")
public class MyControllerClass{

    @Path("pretty_much_same_as_the_method_request_mapping")
    @GET //or whatever you need
    public Viewable roaster(){
        //do whatever
        return new Viewable("home", some_model_object);
    }
}

You can see more information here and a good tutorial here.

Jersey also gives you the ability to integrate with Spring, thus enabling one to call Spring services from Jersey controllers. Check out this for more details
