Re: [Axis2] rest question

[Anne Thomas Manes]

If you have two methods, then you must have two endpoints. Otherwise, it isn't RESTful.

Hi Anne
I am sorry - I probably didnt get the answer.
I have a service class that has 2 methods -

public OMElement dothis(OMElement om1)
public OMElement dothat(OMElement om2)

Now for this service there will be one REST endpoint address - right?
then my question is given my payload xml - how does axis decide which
method to invoke in my service?

I didnt quite get what u meant by

"You have only one function associated with POST to a specific URL"
Are u saying that my service can have only one method for it to be rest
enabled?
thanks

When using a RESTful service, *POST* is your method. You have only one
function associated with POST to a specific URL. If you have a service that
exposes methods other than GET, POST, PUT, or DELETE, then it isn't
RESTful.

  Hi
  As per the axis2 doc it seems that if I want to do a POST rest service -
  the only way axis runtime would detect which method to delegate the call
  to
  is from the name of the top level element in the http message body XML -
  right?
  I have a service whose method definition is like

  public OMElement dothis(OMElelemt payload)

  When I do the SOAP client  invoke I send the soap action as urn:dothis
  and
  my payload top element does not match the method name - This works fine
  with axis2.

  But now if I have to do REST call and not have the root element as method
  name - how can I acheive that using rest? [I presume soap action is not
  going to work here or is it?]

  thanks
