Hi Marc, Your right there is a choice, 99% of the time your going to want to let MG handle your controllers and injecting beans from CS into them using the beans attribute in your xml or metadata.
==== you should probably ignore the rest of this info ==== It is possible to tell MG that you've already defined your controller in coldspring, to do this just tell MG the name of the coldspring bean. <controller id="MyControllerFromColdSpring" bean="MyController" /> note the singular *bean* attribute. This is still supported for backward compatibility, but may be missing from the docs. AOP on controllers is not currently possible out of the box as it breaks bean injection, but it is possible, just not often very useful.
