I have done this for my Restlet-based API.  I can point you to the  
code[1], but since the application is a redistributable webapp which  
supports several authentication plugins, the implementation is  
probably more indirect than you need.  Also, please note that my  
experience is with Restlet 1.1 only so far -- I haven't tried to  
update this application to 2.0.

If I were adding support for just CAS, I would define a new challenge  
scheme (call it something like cas_proxy_ticket) and define a Guard  
and AuthenticationHelper pair which handle this scheme.  This would  
mean that a client would need to acquire a proxy ticket and then  
include it in the HTTP request as the Authentication header, something  
like

Authentication: cas_proxy_ticket PT-123456789

Hi guys,

It looks like Chicago is a RESTful city :)
Good luck for your talks!

Wow, great to know this is happening.  I'm in Chicago and wish I could make
it on the 12th, but I have a prior engagement that day.  Do you know if this
talk will be recorded?

Btw, I'm also giving a talk on REST in Chicago on December 3 at Google's
offices on Kedzie.  http://chigtug5.eventbrite.com/

My name is curiously absent from the schedule, but I'm pretty sure I haven't
been bumped off.  :)

Hi Michael,

This is a discuss topic, so I'm moving it there.

One way would be to use Apache HTTP Client connector and use its  
(Apache HTTP Client's) wire logger:

Re: Example with ObjectRepresentation and annotation

[Thierry Boileau]

Hello Xavier,

Thanks for your contribution. We will take a look at it and decide if it 
can take place either in the tutorial (see 
http://www.restlet.org/documentation/2.0/firstResource for example) or 
in the org.restlet.example project.

Best regards,
Thierry Boileau
