Send java object to a rest WebService

Question

Hi, I'm searching a nice way to send a java object to my rest web service.
It's possible or not ?

For sample I wan't to send an "User" Object to my rest :

public Class User{
    private String name;
    private String surname;

    public getName(){
     return name;
    }

    public setName(String name){

      [...]
 }

It's possible to generate AUTOMATICALY this kind of Rest ?
www.foo.com/createUser/name="foo"&surname="foo"

Answer 1

Have a look at Restlet. The tutorial shows you how to get started.

Restlet allows you to use a number of representation formats, including XML and JSON.

Answer 2

I would consider using a JSON representation for this kind of Java objects. I prefer the Jersey implementation of JAX-RS and it has built-in support for JSON serialization over JAXB.

Hope this helps...

That's NOT REST. That's RPC.
