EDIT

Is the getAnnotations method available in the BaseController already or does this only come with the AbstractIdentifiableController. What is the name of the method?

BaseController:

 @RequestMapping(value = "*", method = RequestMethod.GET)
    public Object doGetMethod(
            @PathVariable("uuid") UUID uuid,
            // doPage request parameters
            @RequestParam(value = "pageIndex", required = false) Integer pageIndex,
            @RequestParam(value = "pageSize", required = false) Integer pageSize,
            // doList request parameters
            @RequestParam(value = "start", required = false) Integer start,
            @RequestParam(value = "limit", required = false) Integer limit,
            HttpServletRequest request,
            HttpServletResponse response) throws IOException {

The "*" as request param is a wildcard for any bean property, and thus matched annotations
