Re: [emf-dev] exposing Ecore models via web services

Hi Ed,

Thanks again for the quick response. I'm currently reviewing the slides from Kenn's presentation:

http://www.eclipsecon.org/2009/sessions?id=272

You're right, it probably would have been very helpful to have attended. Maybe next year :)

I'll let you know if I still have questions on this. Thanks,

Jake

On the other hand, you said that EMF's resource design is fully RESTful. Could you please explain this a bit more, or point me to a resource that does?
Kenn's EclipseCon tutorial was about this topic.  Why weren't you there? :-P 

In https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=191077 there is a little servlet that I used to test that save and delete work properly via HTTP.

In general REST is just a set of principles around the idea of  how the resources are uniformly addressed and the small number of operations that can be applied to those resources.  An EMF resource set effectively works like a browser where pages are like resources, addressed by a URI, and follow links opens new tabs.  How more RESTful can you be? :-P
