Hi Jeromy,
I've finally found time to try to resolve this but haven't had much luck.
Just to recap, I'm looking to be able to do something similar to the following:
/book -> returns a list of books
/book/123 -> returns book with id 123
/book/123/chapter/1 -> return chapter with id 1, retrieved from book
123 (this is a simplistic example, all resources have a unique ID)
I'd also like to be able to control access based on the
context/namespace used to access a resource e.g.:
/logo/abc -> read or update
/book/123/logo/abc -> read only
(would I need multiple LogoControllers for this?)
Using Namespaces as described by Jeromy below certainly seems to make
sense but as soon as I start to try the example provided I lose the
ability to GET /book/123, and I've tried with BookController having
namespace of "/" or "/book" and neither works. And so far I haven't
been able to successfully hit the ChapterController using a url like
/book/123/chapter.
Am I missing something really obvious? Is there something I need to
put in the struts.xml to configure the namespaces as well as using the
@Namespace annotation?
Jeromy, you seem to be pretty knowledgeable about this - can you think
of anything I might be doing wrong?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Mike
