    @Override
    protected Class[] getServletConfigClasses() {
        return new Class[] { WebMvcConfiguration.class };

        return new String[] { "/" };
    }

    @Override
    protected Filter[] getServletFilters() {
        return new Filter[] { new HiddenHttpMethodFilter() };
    }

    **@Override
    public void onStartup(ServletContext servletContext) throws ServletException {
        super.onStartup(servletContext);
        servletContext.addListener(new RequestContextListener());
    }**
