Jerome,
Thxs, this is great. I have a few more comments\questions inline

3) Embedded mode B: lighter version where Spring and the Servlet container
are not masked by the concept of Restlet Application. This requires the
creating of a special Servlet (maybe a Spring's HttpBeanServlet subclass)
HttpServletBean is the class that needs to be subclassed.
and a bit of coding to convert Servlet's calls into Restlet's calls. In this
mode, no Restlet's Application is created, Restlets/Filters/Routers/Finders
are directly instantiated by Spring and configured like other Spring beans.
Of course you loose the Application services and the portability of your
Restlet code to other deployment environments.
i think this is the most appealing mode for my application but I think I
need a bit more info to get going. For instance if all I want to do is
use the Router class then all I need to do is
1. subclass HttpServletBean
2. subclass doXXX in HttpServletBean
3. for each method convert the HttpServletRequest to a
org.restlet.data.Request and subsequently the org.restler.data.Response
to a HttpServletResponse.
4. In each of the HttpServletBean.doXXX call Router.handle(request,
response) method to route to the appropriate Resource.
Is this correct?
Should I also look at the ServerServlet class for help on converting a
Servlet call to a Restlet call?
cheers
