Blossom is great for using Spring MVC within Magnolia, and we'll definitely be doing a lot of that, but...
We also need to go the other way - using Spring MVC to apply dynamic business logic to incoming requests before they get passed to Magnolia for view rendering. According to the wiki, the correct approach is to configure the Spring dispatcher servlet within a module, map the request in Magnolia over to Spring, and then let Spring forward the processed request back to Magnolia for render (http://documentation.magnolia-cms.com/technical-guide/integration.html under "Forwarding a request"). Great! But, um, that's REALLY abstract. The Spring servlet doesn't just work, it needs some configuring to make it work. And so far I'm having absolutely no luck working out how to load the Spring DispatcherServlet in a module servlet config and get it to actually come alive and process requests. Has anybody done this before? Any pointers you can give to nudge me in the right direction?
