> <Customers>
> <Customer href="http://localhost/customerservice/customer?id=1234>
> <id>1234</id>
> </Customer>
> <!-- more customers -->
> </Customers>
> Just a minor comment here. I think it would be more descriptiove if some info
> more meaningful than an id (when available) can be returned to a client as
> part of collection queries, perhaps a name, or something similar. With ids
> you dont get anything interesting out of the collection, nothing to look at
> for a (human) user. If we have :
> <Customers>
> <Customer href="http://localhost/customerservice/customer?id=1234>
> <name>John</name>
> </Customer>
> <!-- more customers -->
> </Customers>
> Not a lot of interesting info, but still a client can use a name in order to
> choose which reference to follow, etc...Perhaps for this to work two
> annotations should be made, one for identifying a field which will be used as
> part of href, another one for identifying the ref value like 'John'.
> Another thing is that it might be worth considering identifying
> reference-like elements as being references :
> <CustomerRef href="http://localhost/customerservice/customer?id=1234>
> <name>John</name>
> </CustomerRef>
> It makes it easier to understand that a collection returns a bunch of
> references. The thing is is that most likely there'll be a schema out there
> which says how a Customer instance may look like and it may not permit
> Customer instances not to contain all elements or to contain an href
> attribute. Perhaps the convention should be <BeanName>+"Ref" for naming
> references. xml.com hosts a lot of interesting articles about it...
