hello, So i am learning via the fire-hose. i have been reading the RestletinAction book and i need some direction on how best to use it in my env.
I have someone creating an iphone app thats going to be calling my existing web app and wants to communicate "RESTFUL" (i hope that is saying it correctly) all of the calls to my server will need to be authorized , which initially will need to be authenticated. We have our own home grown auth where we have the username/password in a mysql DB and then set cookies once authenticated. So i am looking for some help on how to do this. I looked at the CookieAuthenticator but we are all jsp/servlet and really do not want to user FreeMarker just for this little app. the other part that i am struggling to try to get my head around is the login Flow in a restful env So i think what i would do is every page would be "guarded" ? and the first time the iphone app connected to any URI ,it would return a 401? thanks for anyhelp / direction / suggestions Randy ------------------------------------------------------ http://restlet.tigris.org/ds/viewMessage.do?dsForumId=4447&dsMessageId=2699159
