BindingResult result follows validated object

BindingResult result has to follow the object show that it binds to properly validate the inputs. Otherwise, you'll get an exception similar to "field error in object on field rejected value codes".

@RequestMapping(value={"/addnewshow", "/editshow"}, method=RequestMethod.POST)
public String processShow(@Valid @ModelAttribute("show") Show show, BindingResult result,
@RequestParam(value="showid", required=false) Long showId)
{
if(result.hasErrors()){
return "myapp.editshow";
}
else{
show.setId(showId);
show = showService.save(show);
}
return "redirect:editshow.html?showid=" + show.getId();
}
