虽然标记的答案是正确的，但有一种方法可以做到这一点，没有例外。服务返回搜索对象的Optional<T>，这被映射到HttpStatus。如果找到OK，如果为空则返回404。

@Controller
public class SomeController {

    @RequestMapping.....
    public ResponseEntity<Object> handleCall(@PathVariable String param) {
        return  service.find(param)
                .map(result -> new ResponseEntity<>(result, HttpStatus.OK))
                .orElse(new ResponseEntity<>(HttpStatus.NOT_FOUND));
    }
}

@Service
public class Service{
  
    public Optional<Object> find(String param){
        if(!found()){
            return Optional.empty();
        }
        ...
        return Optional.of(data); 
    }
    
}

从Spring 5.0开始，你不需要创建额外的异常:

throw new ResponseStatusException(NOT_FOUND, "Unable to find resource");

此外，你可以用一个内置异常覆盖多个场景，你有更多的控制。

如果你的控制器方法是用于文件处理，那么ResponseEntity是非常方便的:

@Controller
public class SomeController {
    @RequestMapping.....
    public ResponseEntity handleCall() {
        if (isFound()) {
            return new ResponseEntity(...);
        }
        else {
            return new ResponseEntity(404);
        }
    }
}

使用setting配置web.xml

<error-page>
    <error-code>500</error-code>
    <location>/error/500</location>
</error-page>

<error-page>
    <error-code>404</error-code>
    <location>/error/404</location>
</error-page>

创建新控制器

   /**
     * Error Controller. handles the calls for 404, 500 and 401 HTTP Status codes.
     */
    @Controller
    @RequestMapping(value = ErrorController.ERROR_URL, produces = MediaType.APPLICATION_XHTML_XML_VALUE)
    public class ErrorController {


        /**
         * The constant ERROR_URL.
         */
        public static final String ERROR_URL = "/error";


        /**
         * The constant TILE_ERROR.
         */
        public static final String TILE_ERROR = "error.page";


        /**
         * Page Not Found.
         *
         * @return Home Page
         */
        @RequestMapping(value = "/404", produces = MediaType.APPLICATION_XHTML_XML_VALUE)
        public ModelAndView notFound() {

            ModelAndView model = new ModelAndView(TILE_ERROR);
            model.addObject("message", "The page you requested could not be found. This location may not be current.");

            return model;
        }

        /**
         * Error page.
         *
         * @return the model and view
         */
        @RequestMapping(value = "/500", produces = MediaType.APPLICATION_XHTML_XML_VALUE)
        public ModelAndView errorPage() {
            ModelAndView model = new ModelAndView(TILE_ERROR);
            model.addObject("message", "The page you requested could not be found. This location may not be current, due to the recent site redesign.");

            return model;
        }
}

因为做同一件事至少有十种方法总是好的:

import org.springframework.http.HttpStatus;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Controller;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMapping;
import org.springframework.web.servlet.ModelAndView;

@Controller
public class Something {
    @RequestMapping("/path")
    public ModelAndView somethingPath() {
        return new ModelAndView("/", HttpStatus.NOT_FOUND);
    }
}

我想提一下，Spring默认提供了404异常(不仅是)。有关详细信息，请参阅Spring文档。所以如果你不需要自己的异常，你可以简单地这样做:

 @RequestMapping(value = "/**", method = RequestMethod.GET)
 public ModelAndView show() throws NoSuchRequestHandlingMethodException {
    if(something == null)
         throw new NoSuchRequestHandlingMethodException("show", YourClass.class);

    ...

  }
