public class HandleServlet
extends DSpaceServlet

Servlet for handling requests within a community or collection. The Handle is extracted from the URL, e.g: /community/1721.1/1234. If there is anything after the Handle, the request is forwarded to the appropriate servlet. For example:

/community/1721.1/1234/simple-search

would be forwarded to /simple-search. If there is nothing after the Handle, the community or collection home page is shown.
