Hi Jim,
As the integration mode 3) has been requested several times already, I have
just added a new ServletConverter class to the Servlet extension that
handles everything transparently. Here is a usage example:
public class TestServlet extends HttpServlet {
private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
private ServletConverter converter;
@Override
public void init() throws ServletException {
super.init();
this.converter = new ServletConverter(getServletContext());
Restlet trace = new Restlet(this.converter.getContext()){
public void handle(Request req, Response res){
getLogger().info("Hello World");
res.setEntity("Hello World!", MediaType.TEXT_PLAIN);
}
};
Router root = new Router();
root.attach(trace);
this.converter.setTarget(root);
}
@Override
protected void service(HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse res)
throws ServletException, IOException {
this.converter.service(req, res);
}
}
As you can see, your Servlet can extend any super class you want, you just
need to create one ServletConverter (and ideally to reuse it for all
requests).
I will add a FAQ entry tomorrow about this. For now, you can either get the
latest from SVN or get this current.zip:
http://www.restlet.org/downloads/1.0/current.zip
Best regards,
Jerome
