@Get annotation not being detected under a particular circumstance
I've created an interface to mark all Resources that are gettable as html:
public interface GettableAsHtml {
@Get(html)
Representation getAsHtml();
}
For concrete Resource classes that implement this method, the annotation is
detected and it works great.
However, I've created an abstract base for all my freemarker resources that
centralizes handling of freemarker and puts in some common templates like
headers, footers, etc, and that implements my interface:
public abstract class FreemarkerResource extends ServerResource implements
GettableAsHtml {
@Override
public Representation getAsHtml() {
...
String templateName = getTemplateName();
...
}
protected abstract String getTemplateName();
}
This superclass then delegates the choice of which template to instantiate
to concrete subclasses. I consider it a nice design, however it seems that
concrete sublcasses of this class are not having the annotation discovered
by the AnnotationUitls.
An example is my home page resource:
public class HomeResource extends FreemarkerResource {
@Override
protected String getTemplateName() {
return home.ftl;
}
}
I stepped through the code, and AnnotationUtils at line 202 is looking for
interfaces that are directly implemented by this class, but NOT recursively
looking at interfaces imlemented by superclasses.
I am working around the issue by having HomeResource redundantly declare
that it implements the GettableAsHtml interface:
public class HomeResource extends FreemarkerResource implements
GettableAsHtml {
Thankfully the compiler is smart enough to realize that getAsHtml() is
already implemented in a superclass, so it doesn't require me to reimplement
it with a call to super.getAsHtml(). That would have been ugly.
Despite the fairly innocuous workaround available, I think this behavior
should be considered a bug. Seems to me that a concrete subclass should
have annotations discovered that are declared on interfaces implemented by
its superclass, since the instance of the sublcass is-a instance of the
superclass too.

Bug in Atom extension Readers
Hi, I am using both the FeedContentReader and EntryContentReader. When inline
content is detected the type will never be set, hence setting it to text.
Code snippet
..
else if (localName.equalsIgnoreCase(content)) {
if (this.state == State.FEED_ENTRY_CONTENT) {
if (!this.currentEntry.getContent().isExternal()) {
String content = this.currentContentWriter.getWriter()
.toString().trim();
contentDepth = -1;
if (.equals(content)) {
this.currentEntry.setContent(null);
} else {
currentContent
.setInlineContent(new StringRepresentation(
content));
}
}
this.state = State.FEED_ENTRY;
}
I guess the SringRepresentation needs to be set with correct content type as
well.
Thanks,
martin

Re: Spring configuration and MatchingMode for the router

This isn't supported. If you need fine-grained control over your routes, please configure them in code. If this is a feature you'd like to add to Restlet, feel free to submit a patch.

Re: Amazon S3 Auth
During our conversion to Restlet 2.0 i've gone ahead and implemented a SecretVerifier to be used for server side AWS authentication. I've abstracted out the common functionality into a utility class so that both the current HttpAwsS3Helper and my verifier can ensure consistency. The utility class is lifted from a submission I made to Apache's HTTPClient project (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-926) not so long ago but with changes made to conform to restlet's API. I took it over the existing functionality in restlet as it is a more complete implementation of Amazon's spec. Now that I have all the pieces i'm ready to plug it in for testing and ultimately submission to the project. I've been digging around a lot but am so far unable the location where the correct verifier is selected/instantiated for a given ChallengeScheme. Can you point me in the right direction? Ultimately it would be great if it just worked. Any help on plugging this is would be greatly appreciated.

client-side parsing of XML in GWT
Greetings! I am new to Restlet and am trying to figure out what options are available to me for parsing XML I received from a server. The server is written in another technology and I have no control over the format of the XML. How are people mapping XML to POJO's on the client? I am aware of Piriti. I know there is a transparent mapping in Restlet 2.0, but it assumes you have control over both client and server. I really dred having to work with the DOM representation and manually mapping values. Any pointers would be greatly appreciated. -- http://restlet.tigris.org/ds/viewMessage.do?dsForumId=4447dsMessageId=2608837
