package okazuki.igniteui.controllers; import java.util.ArrayList; import java.util.List; import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMapping; import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RestController; @RestController@RequestMapping("/json") publicclass HomeController { @RequestMappingpublic List<Person> jsonSample() { List<Person> result = new ArrayList<Person>(); for (int i = 0; i < 100; i++) { result.add(new Person("tanaka" + i, i)); } return result; } } class Person { private String name; privateint age; public Person(String name, int age) { super(); this.name = name; this.age = age; } public String getName() { return name; } publicvoid setName(String name) { this.name = name; } publicint getAge() { return age; } publicvoid setAge(int age) { this.age = age; } }
