Re: Reference with baseref and absolute path

2008-03-21 Thread Jeroen Goubert

Jerome,

So this leaves me wondering:
Should getTargetRef() clear the baseref or do we have to rely on the 
verbose new Reference(getTargetRef().toString()) to do this 
ourselves ?



It think we should fix the code as suggested by the Javadocs, unless I'm
missing some other aspect. If all the unit tests pass after the change, then
we should be pretty safe. Let's only change this in 1.1 branch only for now.
  


= issue 473 : I generated the diff against the trunk - which is the 1.1 
branch I assume


And considering the request.getProtocol(): doesn't it make 
more sense to use the protocol of the targetref instead of 
the baseref when the targetref itself is absolute ?



Yes, I think so.
 
  

= issue 474 : same remark as above

Kind regards,
Jeroen

RE: Series.getValues()

2008-03-21 Thread Jerome Louvel

Hi Paul,

You can to this with: subList(name).toArray(). Is that sufficient?

Maybe we could also add a toArray(String name) or subArray(String name)
shortcut method?

Best regards,
Jerome

 This method, as written in Restlet 1.0.8, specifically this variant:
 
   getValues(String name, String separator, boolean ignoreCase)
 
 has room for improvement.  Aside from the fact that the ignoreCase  
 parameter is not used, globbing the values together with a separator  
 is not that useful.  I really want:
 
   String[] getValues(String name)
 
 with an implementation like:
 
 public String[] getFormValues( String paramName ) {
 final ListString temp = new LinkedListString();
 for ( Parameter param : this )
 if ( param.getName().equalsIgnoreCase( paramName ) )
 temp.add( param.getValue() );
 return temp.toArray( new String[ temp.size() ] );
 }

Re: Spring + Restlet + Tomcat

2008-03-21 Thread Stephen Mc Namara
Hi Rhett 

thanks for replying. I'll take a look at the links you sent later
today. 

In the meantime I've switched back to using the NRE ServerServlet with
a custom Application that wires in a manager obj to create a Router
whose config is fed from the applicationContext.xml. The spring config
uses the SpringFinfer to overload createResource. It all works but I'd
still like to understand what was wrong with my first approach. If
anyone has any insights please send them along.

cheers,

  Hi Stephen,

   I'm trying without much success to bootstrap a new project using
 both Spring (2.5) and restlet(1.1-M2). The plan goes something like
  this;

   *  Restlet resources on the front end which interact with a service
 layer. The service layer contains some business logic but mostly
 passes off
   calls to a bunch of back end legacy systems. The goal is to expose
  those back
   end systems as a uniform set of RESTful web services.

   *  I want to use Spring primarily for IoC, Aspects and JMX ease of
 use. Plus being able to fairly easily add thread pools to my back
 end adapters is appealing; all the usual Spring container arguments.

   *  I can't use the Restlet HTTP server and in all likelihood the
 corporate powers will make us deploy on WebSphere for production but
   for now I'm
   trying to deploy Spting+Restlet as a WAR inside Tomcat.

   I've read all I can find on the restlet site, the faq, the wiki
 and   this list
   about the various integration options but none are working. It
 seems   there were
   some previous integration strategies and some newer options.
 Various   googling
   has produced a confusing list of alternate approaches and I have
 to   say the
   restlet docs need a major boost.

  This is at least partially my fault.  I promised documentation for
 how  to use RestletFrameworkServlet and SpringBeanRouter/Finder, but
 have  not delivered them yet.
   I'd like to use Spring to inject the service layer into my
 Resources; and in general to use its IoC injection across all the
 beans. Having restlet config (router config, URL mapping etc)
 exposed (and   manageable) by
   Spring is nice.

  This is how I use it today.
   I'd really appreciate if anyone has a complete end-to-end working
 example of spring+restlet in tomcat with either approach, or if you
 can
   spot a problem with the config shown above.

  If you'd like an end-to-end working application of moderate
 complexity, you can look at Patient Study Calendar (PSC):

  https://svn.bioinformatics.northwestern.edu/studycalendar/trunk/

  It is the open source clinical research app I developed the
 aforementioned adapter classes for.  It is primarily a Spring-MVC
 webapp, with Spring IoC connecting all the layers.  The RESTful API
 was added after most of the application functionality was in place,
 so  it is somewhat similar to your situation.

  In particular, I think you'll want to look at


 https://svn.bioinformatics.northwestern.edu/studycalendar/trunk/src/ma
  in/webapp/WEB-INF/restful-api-servlet.xml

  which is the spring configuration file for the
 RestletFrameworkServlet  (using SpringBeanRouter) and


 https://svn.bioinformatics.northwestern.edu/studycalendar/trunk/src/ma
  in/java/edu/northwestern/bioinformatics/studycalendar/restlets/

  which contains all the Resource implementations.  PSC's not as clean
 as an example written specifically for demonstration, but hopefully
 it  can get the point across for now.

Re: Specifying a specific client connector

2008-03-21 Thread Dan Diephouse
Thanks Jerome. If I can twist the scenario slightly now... :-) Lets 
imagine that I want my HttpclientHelper to be injected with a parameter.


Let me explain my case, I've been working on integration for Restlet and 
Mule (http://svn.restlet.muleforge.org/, http://mule.codehaus.org). I 
want to use the Restlet client overtop of Mule. Sometimes I want to pass 
in an existing mule instance though so my client knows which mule 
instance to use.


What do you think about creating a property on Context which stores the 
Engine instead? Than I could extend Engine and create a MuleEngine class 
which wraps a Mule instance. If we replaced all the calls to 
Engine.getInstance() with Context.getEngine() this would magically solve 
my issues :-). Luckily there aren't that many places where 
Engine.getInstance() is called and I think a Context is always 
available. This would allow people to have multiple Restlet instances 
configured differently in their application and also get rid of evil 
static calls throughout the codebase :-)


Thoughts?

Hi Dan,

This is an advanced need but I can see how useful it can be. I've added an
extra constructor to Client and Server that takes the qualified class name
of the connector helper to use (such as
com.noelios.restlet.ext.grizzly.HttpServerHelper).

I didn't want to add it to other shortcut constructors to not overload the
API and to highlight the fact that this is an advanced/special feature.

Let me know if it helps. Code in SVN trunk.

Best regards,
Jerome

Imagine this scenario though - you have two threads creating clients 
with different implementations. If I have to explicitly set up engine 
properties then I have to make sure the threads execute 
sequentially. Am 
I missing something?


It'd great if in the future there was a way to specify this 
information 
at a per-client or per-server level instead of via the global Engine.

Hello Dan,

I think you can have a look at the following classe:
com.noelios.restlet.test.BaseConnectorsTestCase. It is a base class
that allows to cross server/client connectors and test each
combination (see also GetTestcase in the same package).
