ServletSource is only available if you use the ServletService Framework

public API too.
We could offer two types of ServletConnections:
* RelativeServletConnection that works relative to the current servlet
context * AbsoluteServletConnection that expects the servlet service name
(= the name of the Spring bean)
I was wondering why ServletConnection can't be clever enough to figure it out
if it's passed a relative URI or absolute one? Why we need separate classes?
It's not a big deal for me, just curious.
the reason was that I didn't like the code when it did both. But let's discuss
this when the code is committed.
Actually I've already implemented it this way ...
WDYT?
The biggest mystery for me is why I don't see commit messages mentioning this
great stuff being checked in into our repository.
Keeping this code in a secret is just not fair! ;-)
I have to test it more extensivly, but I plan to commit it soon.
For me fixing the cache key generation problem is only a positive side
effect of my current work. I need absolute servlet URIs for a special
generator (or maybe a source, don't know yet) whose output depends on the
available servlet services which makes it impossible to define them as
connections beforehand.
Probably it's very similar to what you call "dynamic connections".
Yep, I guess so. I was thinking about dynamic servlet discovery based on some
conditions. For example, I would like to see a generator that lets me to list
all servlet giving 200 response when they asked for resource
"/org.grek.app.skin.provider". This way I could easily list all skins
available for my new, shiny application. Is it something similar to your
goals?
yes
