Is there a way to generate the URI to a resource from within another resource
for an application?
For example, in the restlet tutorial we have the following bindings:
--------------------------
// Attach the resources to the router
router.attach("/users/{user}", UserResource.class);
router.attach("/users/{user}/orders", OrdersResource.class);
router.attach("/users/{user}/orders/{order}", OrderResource.class);
--------------------------
Let's assume that I want a Users (plural) resource that provides summary data
on users and provides URIs to UserResources.
So, there'd be:
router.attach("/users", UsersResource.class)
In that class, when I return the collection of URIs to a particular User, do I
have to build that URI manually (getting the base URI of the request and
hardcoding "/users/" + username, etc?
It seems like there should be a way to programmatically generate the URIs.
Any pointers are welcomed. Thanks.
