AngularJs how to access Model Attribute value from Spring MVC controller
<p>I have a Spring MVC Controller returning a page with an attribute as followed</p>

<pre><code>@RequestMapping(method = RequestMethod.GET, value = "/create")
public ModelAndView getAddAccountView() {
    ModelAndView model = new ModelAndView("protected/accounts/AccountAddView");
    List&lt;Client&gt; clients=clientService.findAll();
    model.addObject("listClients", clients);
    return model;
}
</code></pre>

<p>Client is a @Entity </p>

<p>in my AccountAddView.jsp file, i'm trying to use the ng-init as follow:</p>

<pre><code>&lt;div class="row-fluid" ng-controller="accountsController as ctrl" ng-init="clients=${listClients}"&gt;
</code></pre>

<p>and in my app.js, in my controller, i try to access the list of client as followed</p>

<pre><code>var listOfClients=$scope.clients;
</code></pre>

<p>but I'm still getting the following error</p>

<pre><code>angular.min-1.5.3.js:116 Error: [$parse:lexerr] http://errors.angularjs.org/1.5.3/$parse/lexerr?p0=Unexpected%20nextharacter%20&amp;p1=s%2033-33%20%5B%40%5D&amp;p2=clients%3D%5Bsoftbank.ui.model.Client%4042%2C%softbank.ui.model.Client%4041%2C%softbank.ui.model.Client%4043%5D
