Hi Mark,
If you're using the standalone server, how are you doing basic session
management? With cookies?
One of the basics of REST and also Restlet is, that the communication
between client and server is stateless, that means that there are no
session (for more details and reasons see
http://www.ics.uci.edu/~fielding/pubs/dissertation/rest_arch_style.htm#sec_5_1_3
and
http://www.ics.uci.edu/~fielding/pubs/dissertation/net_arch_styles.htm#sec_3_4_3).
So we don't need session management.
best regards
Stephan
