You can -- that's what Request.getCurrent() gives you. Be careful not to over-use thread-local context, though, particularly if you use or intend to use asynchronous request handling (connectors for which are available in recent Restlet releases). I'm not sure what happens when you call Request.getCurrent() -- or any of the other getCurrent() static methods -- during handling that doesn't take place on the original request thread.
In the long run, your code will be more robust if you don't rely on assumptions about thread-local context. --tim On Wed, Mar 28, 2012 at 2:32 AM, Mutaz Qasem <[email protected]> wrote: > Thanks Tim.
