## org.springframework.web.bind.support
Interface WebArgumentResolver

    public interface WebArgumentResolver

SPI for resolving custom arguments for a specific handler method parameter. Typically implemented to detect sppecial parameter types, resolving well-known argument values for them.

A typical implementation could look like as follows:

     public class MySpecialArgumentResolver implements ArgumentResolver {

       public Object resolveArgument(MethodParameter methodParameter, NativeWebRequest webRequest) {
         if (methodParameter.getParameterType().equals(MySpecialArg.class)) {
           return new MySpecialArg("myValue");
         }
         return UNRESOLVED;
       }
     }
