I am trying to extend the bookstore example so that the Book jsp has a
form so the Books are editable.
I added an updateItem method to the BookStore like so, but after I do
that, the jsp for Book is no longer shown, get 405 'The specified HTTP
method is not allowed for the requested resource ().'
If I add @Get to getItem I get a 404 The requested resource () is not
available. I am missing something but I don't know what it is....
It works when I add '/update' at the end of the updateItem URI but I'm
trying to avoid that.
Also when I add '/update' to make it work, the method returns XML instead
of coming back with an implicit View for the item. How do I make that
work?

Any help would be appreciated,

Thanks,

Frank

    public Item getItem(@PathParam("itemid") String itemid) {
        Item i = getItems().get(itemid);
        if (i == null)
            throw new NotFoundException("Item, " + itemid + ", is not
found");

        return i;
    }

    @Path("items/{itemid}")
    @Consumes(MediaType.APPLICATION_FORM_URLENCODED)
    @POST
    public Item updateItem(
                @PathParam("itemid") String itemid,
                @FormParam("title") String title,
                @FormParam("author") String author) {
        Item i = getItems().get(itemid);
        if (i != null) {
                i.setTitle(title);
                i.setAuthor(author);
        }
        return i;
    }
