Hi!
Inspired by jsr311's UriTemplate annotation
(https://jsr311.dev.java.net/releases/0.2/javax/ws/rs/UriTemplate.html)
I had once set out to do something similar for T4
(http://tacos.sourceforge.net/tacos4.1/tacos-annotations/rest.html)
It worked fine though i never got to supporting stuff like
@UriTemplate("${car.id}")
(which is not that difficult to do) mainly due to the rewrite filter found at
http://tuckey.org/urlrewrite/ which is easy to use/configure, keeps
all rules in one place
and even works for jsp
Recently i also came across http://dev.horde.org/routes/manual/index.html but
that's in PHP land :)
The reason i'm writing down those:
1) perhaps those links provide inspiration
2) trying to make sure we're not reinventing the wheel - or at least if we do,
there's a terribly good reason for it!
3) I love messing with urls too - if indeed there's scope for this
project, i'll help
PS Having a strong relationship between page and URL makes sense, but
i can accept that
in practice ppl may want/need to bend this relationship - a rewrite
engine will help them do
just that!
