Hi all, Thanks for the support guys :-) Alex hit a blocking bug, actually a regression introduced in 1.1 M5. I can understand the pain... this is the risk with unstable software. He just had bad luck. Alex, I hope you will reconsider your opinion once you will get over your initial issue. Hopefully, the road ahead won't be as painful. I wish I could have had a look at it earlier, but 3 days to fix it is not that bad, isn't it? :-) Best regards, Jérôme Louvel -- Restlet ~ Founder and Lead developer ~ <http://www.restlet.org/> http://www.restlet.org Noelios Technologies ~ Co-founder ~ <http://www.noelios.com/> http://www.noelios.com

I looked at restlets half a dozen or so times over the past year or so before finally taking the plunge a couple of weeks ago. While I might not say it's the easiest framework I've ever used, it is very nice once you get the hang of it. It took a couple of days of fiddling, but now I do all kinds of great stuff with it and I just love it. Alex, what were you trying to do? I found that following the First Steps, First Resource and Tutorial, step by step, was very helpful. I actually went back and forth between the First Steps and the First Resource a few times before I really got the hang of it. http://www.restlet.org/documentation/1.1/firstSteps http://www.restlet.org/documentation/1.1/firstResource http://www.restlet.org/documentation/1.1/tutorial Hope it helps. --Erik On Thu, Sep 18, 2008 at 11:47 PM, Michael Terrington <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Hi Alex, Sorry to hear of your bad experience but I have to speak up to defend Restlet. I've not seen a cleaner, easier to follow framework with so much flexibility before. I'm not sure how you were starting off, but I found that running standalone was the easiest to get going and understand. It certainly helped to be able to breakpoint and follow the code. Once you understand how Restlet handles and routes requests you should be in a good position to get more complicated. Regards, Michael.
