working with version 1.0.3 which has the @ImplicitProduces on the
Bookstore resource.......
I also noticed that IE favors the bookstore XML over the html, where
firefox properly renders the html on the exact same URL
How do we make sure we get the same results in spite of crazy browser
Accept headers?
What are the best practices for using resources for both the UI of the
application as well as data sources?
Based on my experience so far it looks like they should not be mixed....

Re: [Jersey] Extending BookStore example to make books updateable






Hi Frank,

If you want to mix implicit views and explicit resource methods you need
to annotate the resource class with @ImplicitProduces. For example:

  @ImplicitProduces("text/html;qs=5")

Otherwise you need to convert the implicit views into explicit resource
methods that return an instance of Viewable.

What version of the Bookstore are you modifying?

If you could zip up your Bookstore sample and send it to me i should be
able to modify it for you. But i will likely on have time to do that next
week.

Paul.

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
