Hi Alex, Congrats! This is VERY nice. While looking at your code, several questions came to mind:
1) In the samples you seem to only use the local eXist URIs. Does your eXist client connector support remote access to an eXist database (by specifying a host name and port number)? 2) For your XMLDBApplication, did you consider relying on the Redirector class instead of XMLDBFinder/XMLDBResource in order to convert calls from the server HTTP connector to your client eXist connector? That would be more efficient Best regards, Jerome > -----Message d'origine----- > De : James Todd [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Envoyé : mardi 3 avril 2007 01:31 > À : [email protected] > Objet : Re: eXist / Restlet Integration > > > very cool! > > - james > > > On 4/2/07, Alex Milowski <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I've just finished integrating eXist (an XML database) with > the Restlet API.
