Jan Bernhardt commented on SYNCOPE-259:
---------------------------------------
You can return an object for HTTP DELETE operation (get is not required). See:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6581285/is-a-response-body-allowed-for-a-http-delete-request
According to RESTfull best practices GET operations should be idempotent and
should not modify an object. That's why you should use DELETE instead of GET
for deleting a resource.
> Create transitional Service interfaces and switch tests and console to use

> As preparation of the change to use CXF instead of Spring MVC REST
> controllers this issue is to introduce transitional service interfaces (like
> as UserService).
> The UserService interface should later be used in the core to provide the
> UserController and on the console to access the service remotely.
> To make the transition easier the idea is to already introduce the interface
> upfront and change all tests and the console to use it. Before the switch the
> implementation of the interface will simply use the restTemplate under the
> covers.
> This to be applied similarly to all Spring MVC REST controllers.
