Update for Spring 4: since 4.0.1 you can use PathMatchConfigurer (via your WebMvcConfigurer), e.g.

@Configuration
protected static class AllResources extends WebMvcConfigurerAdapter {

    @Override
    public void configurePathMatch(PathMatchConfigurer matcher) {
        matcher.setUseRegisteredSuffixPatternMatch(true);
    }

}


@Configuration
public class WebConfig implements WebMvcConfigurer {

   @Override
   public void configurePathMatch(PathMatchConfigurer configurer) {
       configurer.setUseSuffixPatternMatch(false);
   }
}

In xml, it would be (https://jira.spring.io/browse/SPR-10163):
