Re: Problems extracting a POST request's entity
Hi, Thanks Mitch and Bruno for your answers. Bruno, I was using Restlet 1.1M1 and the problem was the same that yours. The resolution of the POST method took a long time and the returned entity's value was null (either using getText() or using streams). I returned to Restlet 1.07 and now the problem is gone.

Problems extracting a POST request's entity
Hi all, I'm developing a web-based middleware (the software of my PhD) and I'm trying to use RESTLET. I create a server (and a client) and some restlets to implement the execution dynamics of my software. I'm using XML for the representation of the resources (using JAXB). Well, I tried to implement a GET method and it works, it returns a response with a XML entity on it. But now I'm programming a POST method and I have a problem. I create a request with a XML string as an entity and it seems to be ok (I'm using a StringRepresentation) for this purpose. The code that I use is one of the following: Representation rep = new StringRepresentation(xmlString, MediaType.TEXT_XML); I debug the request and it seems to be well formed. But, when I try to get back the XML string on the handlePost method, I allways obtain a null value. How could I extract the XML String from a request's entity??? (i try to do it using an InputStreamReader but the result is the same) I would appreciate some help regarding this, it takes me two days!! :-) P.D.- Please forgive my poor english :-) -- Sergio Saugar García Área de Ciencias de la Computación e Inteligencia Artificial Departamento de Ciencias de la Computación Edificio Departamental II - Despacho 053 Escuela Técnica Superior de Ingeniería Informática Universidad Rey Juan Carlos Móstoles (MADRID) Clave PGP: http://pgp.rediris.es:11371/pks/lookup?op=getsearch=0xADFA3433 signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature
RE: Problems extracting a POST request's entity
If you read the stream from the representation, or call getText(), then the stream will be consumed and there will be no more data to read. This is also true if you debug a POST on the server side, and call getText(). Your debugger will consume the stream and no more data will be available to the handlePost() method. Only grab the data from the Representation once. If you need to debug, then read it into a temporary variable prior to parsing it, then you can inspect the temp variable without losing the data.
