Tim:
That's really good to know. Thanks for the demo. I may use that in another
scenario.
Unfortunately, in the case I mentioned, I am implementing an abstract method
that takes a Representation as the argument and since Form doesn’t extend
Representation I can't use it as the argument. I may just create the Form on
the fly without Spring as in:
@Post
public Representation doPost(Representation entity) {
Form form = new Form(entity);
doSomethingWithForm(form);
// etc.
}
I'm new to Spring and so I always seek to know how to construct an object via
Spring rather than calling "new" in my code but I'm not sure how much value DI
gives me in this case especially since it's just an object created locally,
passed to another private method, and then trashed.
Of course, if you or anyone else have any insights about this, I'm all ears.
Thanks again.

Subject: Re: Spring inject a Form constructed using the requestEntity
The org.restlet.data.Form instance is created automatically from the entity.
Run this demo server:
http://pastebin.com/G0t4ExYP
and use whatever submission technique you choose (see the curl suggestion in
the class comment) to post some data, and you can verify that it works without
any special configuration.

It's a publicly exposed HTTP call so I won't be getting an
org.restlet.data.Form passed in. I'll be getting an entity body with params as

param=value&otherparam=value

I'm probably missing something, but why isn't the following acceptable?
@Post public Representation doPost(Form form) {
// do stuff with form

I might also mention that I'm trying to keep my bean from being Spring aware so
I'm looking for the solution that is as least Spring-invasive as possible.
Thanks.
