Client connectors

Introduction

It is possible to declare client connectors when the application is hosted on a Servlet container. The Javadocs of the Servlet adapter (ServerServlet class) answers this question and others related to the configuration of Restlet based applications.

The web.xml file declares the client connectors in a dedicated “org.restlet.clients” parameter:

<servlet>
    <servlet-name>RestletAdapter</servlet-name>
    [...]
    <!-- List of supported client protocols (Optional - Only in mode 3) -->
    <init-param>
        <param-name>org.restlet.clients</param-name>
        <param-value>HTTP HTTPS FILE</param-value>
    </init-param>
    [...]
</servlet>
