After a bit of experimentation I have managed to get a Restlet/Freemarker stack running on GAE.
The basic steps I took were : 1. Modify ServletConverter and ServletContextAdapter as detailed below. Basically this means replacing the calls to new ServletLogger with Logger.getLogger e.g. in the ServletConverter constructor do something like... super(new Context(Logger.getLogger(ServletConverter.class.getName()))); 2. Add org.freemarker.jar, org.restlet.jar, org.restlet.ext.servlet.jar and org.restlet.ext.freemarker.jar to the WEB-INF/lib of your google app project and add to the build path. 3. Follow usual setup for getting Restlet working in a Servlet environment. Folow the HelloWorld tutorial in the getting started docs - it should work fine locally (even without doing step 1. However, you'll need to replace these calls in order to get it to run in the real GAE) 4. Freemarker was a little more tricky, but not much. Create a freemarker configuration that uses the class template loader and put this in the Restlet Application context attributes. 5. Make sure your templates are somewhere on the class path. 6. Use the TemplateRepresentation along with your freemarker config from the context attributes 7. Make sure it works locally and upload to the app engine. Hopefully I'll get a chance to write this up properly over easter, but it wasn't too bad and looks promising so far.
