Good people:

is there a way to express that my Spring Web MVC controller method should be matched either by a request handing in a ID as part of the URI path ...

@RequestMapping(method=RequestMethod.GET, value="campaigns/{id}")
public String getCampaignDetails(Model model, @PathVariable("id") Long id) {

... or if the client sends in the ID as a HTTP request parameter in the style ...

@RequestMapping(method=RequestMethod.GET, value="campaigns")
public String getCampaignDetails(Model model, @RequestParam("id") Long id) {

This seems to me a quite common real-world URL scheme where I don't want to add duplicate code, but I wasn't able to find an answer yet. Any advice highly welcome.
