Question

@RequestMapping(\"/register\")
    public String register(@ModelAttribute User user,BindingResult          


        

Answer 1

Apart from adding object to Model, Spring MVC uses it to supply the bound object to a Controller method where you can use it, in your case to "register".

And yes @ModelAtttribute is the safest and best way in Spring MVC to bind incoming post data to an object.
