    Description copied from interface: HandlerMethodReturnValueHandler
    Whether the given method return type is supported by this handler.
    Parameters:
    returnType - the method return type to check
    Returns:
    true if this handler supports the supplied return type; false otherwise
  - toListenableFuture
```
public ListenableFuture<?> toListenableFuture(Object returnValue,
                                              MethodParameter returnType)
```
    Description copied from interface: AsyncHandlerMethodReturnValueHandler
    Adapt the asynchronous return value to a ListenableFuture. Implementations should consider returning an instance of SettableListenableFuture. Return value handling will then continue when the ListenableFuture is completed with either success or error.
    Note: this method will only be invoked after HandlerMethodReturnValueHandler.supportsReturnType(org.springframework.core.MethodParameter) is called and it returns true.
    Parameters:
    returnValue - the value returned from the handler method
    returnType - the type of the return value
    Returns:
    the resulting ListenableFuture, or null in which case no further handling will be performed
