Re: My First REST Web Service

[Scott Klement <midrange-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Craig,

Why would you suggest that?   That would only work if you did not use 
the URL to identify the object working with.  in a RESTful architecture, 
the URL is supposed to identify something.

For example, this might identify invoice 12345:

    http://yourserver/rest/INVOICE/12345

That won't work with the ScriptAliasMatch you've given, because it'll 
expect the program to be namde 'INVOICE/12345.pgm' which isn't a valid 
object name.

Is there something wrong with the regular expression he got from me that 
you'd like to comment on?  I've been using it for years without 
problems, but perhaps you see a flaw?

Or.. why are you suggesting a different one?  (especially since it's one 
that won't work, at least, with the requirements of the presentation he 
got it from...)
