Hello,

by "option 2", do you mean the standalone mode?

best regards,
Thierry Boileau



I am also quite interested in the latter two options.

Will Restlet team give out a standard(or recommended) approach about how to deploy a web application using for example option 2, for example a WebApplication which has lots of well-defined elements for serving static resources from a jar or some other locations?

    It depends on what you are trying to build with Restlet.

    If you need something that a JEE container provides (e.g.
    lifecycle services, deploy/undeploy applications, integration with
    existing Servlet code), or are required to run in an existing JEE
    container for business reasons, then you should use the
    ServerServlet approach.

    If you don't need any of the JEE container features and aren't
    using any Servlet API, it is good to have the ability to run
    Restlet in standalone mode (start Component from "main") with your
    choice of connector.  This is excellent for lightweight embedded
    systems, and also for any "legacy-free" new application which is
    designed totally around Restlet and doesn't need any JEE baggage.

    There is also at least one other really interesting option, which
    is to run Restlet as an OSGi service within an OSGi framework.
     This shares some properties/advantages of both the JEE and
    Standalone approach, and introduces other neat possibilities.
     Some of us (at least Hendy and I that I know of) have played with
    Restlet on OSGi a lot.

        Hi,

               i am new to restlet, started exploring. i found we can
        access an
        application mapped to ServerServlet in a web application, as
        well we can
        create a application where we use restlet client to create a
        client and use
        main to start application.

        in the first approach we are using the web server, where as
        the second
        approach we use restlet webcontainer for our application
        launch.. am i
        right?

        if not clarify me, as tell me which way is suggested and best

        Thanks in advance
