Restlet project awakens in beta release

The Restlet open source project, which is intended to deliver REST (Representational State Transfer) capabilities to Java developers, is now available in a version 1.0 beta release, according to project founder Jerome Louvel, of Noelios Consulting.

REST often has been seen as an alternative to SOAP-based Web services. The Restlet framework now enters a phase of code stabilization, bug fixing and minor enhancements, Louvel said in an email. A final production-ready version is due in the second quarter of this year.

Featured in the project is the Noelios Restlet Engine, which is now automatically registered with the Restlet API if no other implementation is specified. The API itself has been simplified in the beta release.

Also highlighted in the beta version is complete support for cookies and refactored connectors, including the HTTP client and servers.
