Equivalent annotations to Jersey #Context, #FormParm and #BeanParam in Spring - web-services

Question

Consider the following Spring MVC annotation:
#RequestMapping(value="content",
method=RequestMethod.GET,
produces = "application/json; charset=UTF-8")
The equivalent in JAX-RS/Jersey is:
#GET
#Path("content")
#Produces(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)
I am looking for the equivalent Spring MVC annotation for the following JAX-RS/Jersey annotations:
#Context
#FormParm
#BeanParam

Answer 1

#FormParam
In JAX-RS, #FormParam binds the value(s) of a form parameter contained within a request entity body to a resource method parameter.
There's no direct equivalent to #FormParam in Spring MVC. The closest you will find is #RequestParam:
#RequestParam("foo") String foo
And you also can get the parameter from the request:
String foo = request.getParameter("foo");
#BeanParam
In JAX-RS, #BeanParam can be used to inject custom JAX-RS parameter aggregator value object into a resource class field, property or resource method parameter.
I'm not aware of any annotation that gives you a similar feature but according to this answer, you can create a class with field names that match your request parameters and add it as a method argument in your request handler method.
#Context
In JAX-RS, #Context is used to inject JAX-RS contextual information into a class field, bean property or method parameter. So you won't find a direct equivalent to #Context in Spring MVC either.
However Spring MVC has a predefined set of types that can automagically injected in method arguments.
And you also can use #Autowired to inject some request/response contextual information in your class fields:
#Autowired
HttpServletRequest request;
