org.rest.sec.util.SearchUtil in main packages relies on org.rest.client.template.impl.ClientOperations in test packages. This keeps it from building. The method that requires ClientOperations is only used once in org.rest.client.template.impl.RoleRESTTemplateImpl.

Platform: Netbeans 7.0.1 on Windows
As of commit: 1a1883d.

SearchUtil.java
Line 7: import org.rest.client.template.impl.ClientOperations;
Line 54: public static String constructQueryString( final Pair< Long, ClientOperations > idOp, final Pair< String, ClientOperations > nameOp ){

RoleRESTTemplateImpl.java
Line 40: final String queryURI = getURI() + "?q=" + SearchUtil.constructQueryString( idOp, nameOp );

• Discoverability/HATEOAS is achieved via listeners - these need a way to retrieve the URI of each Resource, in order to properly return URIs to the client - this should be a simple mapper

• using curl

Currently, both the persistence tests and the over REST tests are named "Integration"; a clarification would be to name the "over REST" tests - Live Tests

To change the hardcoded way to dynamic, use inflector to plural.

The following filter constraints should be supported:

• by name
• by id
• both = and !=
• any combination of the above

When setting the reason in @ResponseStatus, the reason is not propagated in the HTTP response. I modified the latest version of the project as follows:

Modified the following line in ConflictException.java (added reason):
@ResponseStatus(value = HttpStatus.CONFLICT, reason = "ConflictExceptionReason")

Set breakpoint in UserLogicRESTIntegrationTest.java at method whenUserIsCreatedWithNewRole_then409IsReceived at the response and don't see the reason changed. It is "HTTP/1.1 409 Conflict" and would expect "HTTP/1.1 409 ConflictExceptionReason".

There is another Github project that just does a minimal RESTful service in MVC and demonstrates use of the reason, so I don't think it's a Spring issue. Most likely just a project configuration issue:
github.com/Zenika/Blogs/tree/master/20110518_REST-error-handling/rest-error-handling

This is meant to enable discoverability of other types of bulk retrieval queries
For example, when a client does a GET on /users, they should be pointed to the other possibilities of bulk retrieving users (via more fine grained queries)

• note: these operations are duplicates - the same can be achieved via:
  .../users?q=name=something
  instead of:
  .../users?name=something

When I tried to fetch all Foo's using GET and media type application/xml I received 406 error. "application/json" works fine though.

I run mvn install and the only lib dir I can find is at target/rest/WEB-INF/lib. It only has the jars needed for the main branch to compile. The jars that are missing are all needed to test the app (hamcrest, springjUnit4ClassRunner, etc.). Is there another lib that should be created when I run mvn install? I'm running on ubuntu and I've tried with both Maven 2 and 3.

• after this is done, remove the profile setup from the test run configuration and from Maven as well

• note: this is dependent on #10
