Hi Chamika, The only thing I could find about this issue is a thread [1] on the restlet mailing list started by Fabio.
Maybe an upgrade to the latest version on restlet would fix this, but, AFAIK, we are having problems [2] with the Annotations module and the new version of restlet so I`m not sure when this upgrade could happen. But still, due to the fact that the upgrade attempt was pretty recent, maybe there's a chance of it happening soon (if the problems with Annotations are easily fixable). Thanks, Eduard ----------------- References: [1] http://restlet-code.1609877.n2.nabble.com/JAX-RS-and-JSon-td2733670.html [2] http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-6632 On Sun, Jul 17, 2011 at 9:31 PM, Chamika Weerasinghe <[email protected]>wrote: > Hi all, > Thank you all for giving me help to develop xwiki-android-client and > passing > me in GSOC mid evaluation. > > Since I've finished most of the xwiki android navigation features now I'm > working on adding other features which uses XWiki RESTful POST and PUT > methods. > > There is really big problem here.
