Hello community, I quite like the Restlet framework and am trying to create a new webservice with it which should be ultimately be consumed by a flash/activescript client.
That brings a problem with it, as I had the initial design to rely on HTTP repsonse codes to indicate errors. This will not work across the board in all browsers, as flash runs in it's own security context and the browser might intercept the response code. Since I'm sending JSON back and forth I added a field to include "status":"ok" or "status":"failed" as part of every response. Furthermore I added a request parameter (supress_error) which get's checked in my custom status service implementation and overwrites the response code accordingly. This works obviously fine in cases of error, but it does not work if the request responds with a 201 "resource created" which is not an error or similar, but I'd still like to dynamically translate this into a HTTP response code 200 message. My question would be, where can I register this in the code? At the moment I have a simple Application which creates as part of the createInboundRoot method a router which dispatched the request to my various resources. I tried to create in the same application a createOutboundRoot but that failed. Would I need to attach a new restlet to the routes to achieve this functionality, or is there a central point where I can register a filter for every outgoing response from a server resource? Thanks in advance Joey ------------------------------------------------------ http://restlet.tigris.org/ds/viewMessage.do?dsForumId=4447&dsMessageId=2646620
