java - how to intercept all requests in spring REST controllers? -

i have bunch of controllers like:

@restcontroller public class areacontroller {     @requestmapping(value = "/area", method = requestmethod.get)     public @responsebody responseentity<area> get(@requestparam(value = "id", required = true) serializable id) { ... } } 

and need intercept requests reach them,

i created interceptor example:

http://www.mkyong.com/spring-mvc/spring-mvc-handler-interceptors-example/

but never enters :(

because i'm using annotations, don't have xml define interceptor, i've found set this:

@configuration @enablewebmvc @componentscan(basepackages = "com.test.app") public class appconfig extends webmvcconfigureradapter {      @bean     public controllerinterceptor getcontrollerinterceptor() {         controllerinterceptor c = new controllerinterceptor();         return c;     }      @override     public void addinterceptors(interceptorregistry registry) {         registry.addinterceptor(getcontrollerinterceptor());         super.addinterceptors(registry);     }  } 

what doing wrong or missing something?

so apparently doing wrong can't what,

defining interceptor like:

<mvc:interceptors>   <bean class="com.test.controllerinterceptor" /> </mvc:interceptors>  

i'm pretty sure can define in pure java, working,
