title: How to explicitly obtain post data in Spring MVC?
body: <p>Is there a way to obtain the post data itself? I know spring handles binding post data to java objects. But, given two fields that I want to process, how can I obtain that data?</p>
  
  <p>For example, suppose my form had two fields:</p>
  
  <pre><code> &lt;input type="text" name="value1" id="value1"/&gt;
   &lt;input type="text" name="value2" id="value2"/&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>How would I go about retrieving those values in my controller? </p>
