Reservation.java

  package com.tutoraspire;    public class Reservation {    private String firstName;  private String lastName;  private String Gender;    public Reservation()  {  }  public String getFirstName() {  return firstName;  }  public void setFirstName(String firstName) {  this.firstName = firstName;  }  public String getLastName() {  return lastName;  }  public void setLastName(String lastName) {  this.lastName = lastName;  }  public String getGender() {  return Gender;  }  public void setGender(String gender) {  Gender = gender;  }  }

ReservationController.java

  package com.tutoraspire;  import org.springframework.stereotype.Controller;  import org.springframework.ui.Model;  import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.ModelAttribute;  import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMapping;    @RequestMapping(“/reservation”)  @Controller  public class ReservationController {  @RequestMapping(“/bookingForm”)  public String bookingForm(Model model)  {        //create a reservation object   Reservation res=new Reservation();        //provide reservation object to the model   model.addAttribute(“reservation”, res);  return “reservation-page”;  }  @RequestMapping(“/submitForm”)  public String submitForm(@ModelAttribute(“reservation”) Reservation res)  {  return “confirmation-form”;  }  }
