Thanks Jonathan..
1. Here's what I did to support lets say ".js" as an extension to indicate JSON as the content type public class FirstStepsApplication extends Application { /** * Creates a root Restlet that will receive all incoming calls. */ @Override public Restlet createRoot() { // Create a router Restlet that routes each call to a // new instance of HelloWorldResource. Router router = new Router(getContext()); // Defines only one route router.attachDefault(HelloWorldResource.class); this.getTunnelService().setExtensionsTunnel(true); this.getTunnelService().setEncodingParameter("output"); this.getMetadataService().addExtension("js", new Metadata(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON.getName(), MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON.getDescription()), true ); return router; } } public class HelloWorldResource extends Resource { public HelloWorldResource(Context context, Request request, Response response) { super(context, request, response); // This representation has only one type of representation. getVariants().add(new Variant(MediaType.TEXT_PLAIN)); getVariants().add(new Variant(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)); } /** * Returns a full representation for a given variant. */ @Override public Representation represent(Variant variant) throws ResourceException { Representation representation = null; if(variant.getMediaType() == MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON){ representation = new JsonRepresentation("Hello World"); }else if ( variant.getMediaType() == MediaType.TEXT_PLAIN){ representation = new StringRepresentation( "hello, world", MediaType.TEXT_PLAIN); } return representation; } } However when I call the service using the following URL http://localhost:8080/firstStepsServlet/Hello.js the Variant type in the HelloWorldResource is of MediaType.TEXT_PLAIN Thanks for Your help From: Jonathan Hall (via Nabble) [mailto:ml-user+125526-1692215...@n2.nabble.com] Sent: Friday, June 05, 2009 1:29 PM To: Sherif Subject: Re: Multiple content types Have a look at http://www.restlet.org/documentation/2.0/api/org/restlet/service/TunnelServi ce.html getTunnelService().setExtensionsTunnel(true); Jon Sherif wrote: > I realize RESTLet supports multiple encodings based on the Accept Encoding > headers.
