It's processing XML, so nothing is holding you back from implementing a web service! This is just an XML request and an XML response. Cocoon is great in handling this! We build our project's (http://sourceforge.net/projects/sirius-sign/) web service handling entirely with Cocoon. Even WebServiceSecurity is just another transformer ...
RESTful services don't bring new complexity to the picture, you just have to deal with the HTTP methods instead of having just 'POST'. You can easily handle the http method within the sitemap. When you assume RESTful services work with JSON, things get a bit more tricky, as it's not XML. In this case just XMLify the request and serialize to JSON. > > > Is there in this respect a tutorial or sample code? See the mentioned project. If your lost (it's a bit bigger), just drop me a line.
