In our Resource objects, after processing a PUT, we use the Result's constructor that takes a status and a representation so that our client can get the complete representation of the object it just put (in our case getting the ID value just assigned for newly created objects). Unfortunately our representation doesn't make it back to the requesting client. We've traced through the code and it seems that in the Handler class, in the handlePut (and handlePost) the Result's Representation is never used.
We've been able to fix this for us by copying the code from the Handler class into our extended handler adding the line: response.setEntity(result.getEntity()); into the handlePut method that we copied from Handler. Is it intentional that the Representation field of the Result should be ignored? If so, why? If not, is this the right way to fix this problem? Could it be incorporated into the RC1 release? Thanks, Randy
