title: Spring SimpleFormController onSubmit request parameters
body: <p>I am using <code>SimpleFormController</code> in my application to handle form submisions. one thing i am missing is the request object that is passed <code>onSubmit(request,response..)</code> 
  is a different one from the initial request object that is received by <code>formBackingObject(..)</code>.probably because it is again a new request from web.</p>
  
  <p>i just want to use the same parameters from request object in <code>onSubmit(..)</code> that i was able to access in <code>formBackingObject(..)</code>.</p>
  
  <p>it could be possible for me to store them in and pass thru hidden fields from jsp, but i am trying to get some elegant approach.</p>
  
  <p>is there any way to achieve this?  </p>
  
  <p>EDIT:</p>
  
  <p>i am overriding </p>
  
  <pre><code>formBackingObject(HttpServletRequest request)`  
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and</p>
  
  <pre><code>onSubmit(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response, Object command, BindException errors)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>methods in my class.</p>
  
  <p>for the intial view <code>formbackingObject(..)</code>  will be called and i will have some variables from the request object then if user submits the form <code>onSubmit(..)</code> will be called then i will have another request object which is different from the one i received in <code>formbackingObject(..)</code> . </p>
  
  <p>what i am asking is, is there any way of holding the
  initial 'request'
  parameters(<code>request.getParameter()</code> kind
  of...) so that i can use them in
  <code>onSubmit(..)</code> with out sending them
  back &amp; forth thru hidden fields ?'</p>
