Overloading HTTP Methods
Through the use of the built-in "method" GET parameter, you can implement requests beyond the basic
REST http method types.
For example, the URL "/sample/foo?method=BAR" will cause the following method to be invoked...
@RestMethod(name="BAR")
public void doBar(RestRequest req, RestResponse res) {
// Handle BAR requests
}
To support overloaded methods, the {@link oajr.annotation.Rest#allowedMethodParams() @Rest(allowedMethodParams)}
setting must be enabled on your servlet.
@Rest(
// Allow &method parameter on BAR requests
allowedMethodParams="BAR"
)
