I have a model I need to paginate (Book listings – as explained in a previous question.).
This seems like a common enough feature that I would expect some pre-built solutions for it without having to build a custom solution.
Does Spring (3) have support for pagination?
There are some helper classes included. For instance there’s a class called org.springframework.beans.support.PagedListHolder. There are a number of solutions to pagination depending on what trade-offs you’re willing to make, so there is no one single accepted way to do it. This article has a good overview.
