I\'m trying to redirect without parameters being added to my URL.

@Controller
...
public class SomeController

In Spring 4 there is a way to do this with java config, using annotations. I'm sharing it in case anyone needs it as I needed it.

On the config class that extends WebMvcConfigurerAdapter, you need to add:

@Autowired
private RequestMappingHandlerAdapter requestMappingHandlerAdapter;


@PostConstruct
public void init() {
    requestMappingHandlerAdapter.setIgnoreDefaultModelOnRedirect(true);
}

With this, you do not need to use RedirectAttributes, and it is an equivalent in java config to Matroskin's answer.
