How to access static resources when mapping a global front controller servlet on /*

Question

I\'ve mapped the Spring MVC dispatcher as a global front controller servlet on /*.

Answer 1

As of 3.0.4 you should be able to use mvc:resources in combination with mvc:default-servlet-handler as described in the spring documentation to achieve this.
