Direct Known Subclasses:

ControllerHelper

public class HelperBase
extends java.lang.Object

This is the base class that contains the member variables and helper methods for objects that use the same class for all controllers.

The request and response objects use the same classes for all controllers, so the member variables belong in the base class. The bean is an example of a class that can be different for each controller, so it does not belong in the base class.
