Answer 1

I solved this problem with Spring 3 mvc without MarshallingView

@RequestMapping(value = "actionName.xml", method = RequestMethod.GET)
public HttpEntity getXml(ModelMap map, HttpServletResponse response) {

    String xml = generateSomeXml();

    byte[] documentBody = xml.getBytes();

    HttpHeaders header = new HttpHeaders();
    header.setContentType(new MediaType("application", "xml"));
    header.setContentLength(documentBody.length);

}
