[ecf-dev] Sending PUT Request using ECF

[Атанас Тодоров <atanas.i.todorov@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

Can you help me send a PUT request using ECF framework.I have a web resource exposed via REST and i want to update it with some data.

NOTE: GET,POST,DELETE requests work for me.

The code i use is:

AbstractRequestType requestType = new HttpPutRequestType();

Request request = new Request(requestType, new Object[] { configuration }); // configuration is String and is not empty or null.

RemoteServiceProxy proxy =  new RemoteServiceProxy<Object>(deserializer, host) // deserializer is custom impl of BaseRemoteResponseDeserializer

proxy.makeRestSyncCall(url.toString(), request);

where 

 public T makeRestSyncCall(String resource, Request request) throws ECFException {

        IContainer originalContainer = ContainerFactory.getDefault().createContainer(REST_CONTAINER_TYPE, url);

        RestID restID = null;

        try {

         restID = new RestID(originalContainer.getConnectNamespace(), new URI(url));

        } catch (Exception ex) {

         //TODO log exception when we have logger

         return null;

        }

        IContainer container = new SPMRestClientContainer(restID);

        IRemoteServiceClientContainerAdapter adapter = (IRemoteServiceClientContainerAdapter) container

            .getAdapter(IRemoteServiceClientContainerAdapter.class);

        adapter.setConnectContextForAuthentication(ConnectContextFactory.createUsernamePasswordConnectContext(

            UriContainer.REMOTE_USERNAME, UriContainer.REMOTE_PASSWORD));

        adapter.setResponseDeserializer(deserializer);

        IRemoteCallParameter[] rcp = null;

        if (request.getRequestType() instanceof HttpPostRequestType) {

            rcp = RemoteCallParameterFactory.createParameters("", "");//$NON-NLS-1$ //$NON-NLS-2$

        }

        IRemoteCallable callable = RestCallableFactory.createCallable(resource, resource, rcp, request.getRequestType(),

            IRestCall.DEFAULT_TIMEOUT);

        IRemoteServiceRegistration registration = adapter.registerCallables(new IRemoteCallable[] { callable }, null);

        IRemoteService restClientService = adapter.getRemoteService(registration.getReference());

        return (T) restClientService.callSync(RestCallFactory.createRestCall(resource, request.getBody()));

    }

I think the problem is in the way i construct the HttpPutRequestType as it is the only difference comparing to POST,GET,DELETE.

On the server side the object i am sending is an empty string and that's the problem.

Hope can help me,

Best Regards,
