RE: Trouble extending org.restlet.util.Template (private declarations)

Hi Matthias,

Are you using Restlet version 1.0? If so, I suggest that you look at the 1.1
branch where we made the suggested changes!

Objet : Trouble extending org.restlet.util.Template (private declarations)

Just noticed an issue when subclassing Template.

Scenario:
For a template pattern /test/{type}/{id} with variables {type ==
testType} (no id defined in the map), i want format() to return
  /test/testType/{id}
instead of the default
  /test/testType/null
so i tried to subclass it.

Issue:
in Template, format(VariableResolver) and all the VariableResolver class
definitions are all marked private, so i had to re-implement much of the
Template format method.

Solution:
i suggest to mark those methods and classes _protected_ so they can be
used by extending classes.

Any comments?

regards,
Matthias

Thanks for your response! Yes, I use v1.0. The v1.1 solution looks much
better at first sight, no complains =) .
