Spring servlet for serving static content?

I'm wondering what's the Spring way of serving static files. It should support:

• Written in a Springy way!
• Simple and reliable
• Support for resuming downloads (eg. Range request header, and Accept-Ranges, ETag and Last-Modified response headers).
• Support for client-side caching (eg. If-None-Match and If-Modified-Since request headers, and HEAD requests for ETag, Last-Modified, and Expires response headers
• Support for GZIP compression (eg. Accept-Encoding: gzip header)

Something like the follo开发者_开发百科wing, but using the idioms of Spring 3...

• BalusC FileServlet supporting resume and caching and GZIP
• Servlet for serving static content (question on SO)

---

You can make a @Controller with @RequestMapping("/static/{resourceName} and use the same logic as in BalusC's Servlet

As for gzip - use Tomcat's or Apache's configuration options.
