Hi Konstantin,
the WidgetResource returned by findWidget(.) is a resource class, which
also contains (sub) resource methods, e.g.:
public class WidgetResource {
/** contains the id of the widget */
private int id;
@GET
public Object get() { ... }
}
Is it now clearer what is meant?
Marc, perhaps you could add an exmaple WidgetResource class to the spec.
This makes it clearer, and a reader see at a glance what is meant.
best regards
Stephan
