Sorry, added the links to the references on the usage of POST and PUT in the wrong place, they were meant to follow my statement about the usage of POST and PUT, that is:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ As far as I know PUT can be used also for resource creation in REST, the discriminant between using POST and PUT is that with POST you don't know where the resource is going to end up, while with PUT you already know the location at which the resource should be created, see for reference: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/630453/put-vs-post-in-rest http://jcalcote.wordpress.com/2008/10/16/put-or-post-the-rest-of-the-story/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cheers Andrea -- Ing.
