Restful services, widgets and the widget foundation

[Former Member]

Hi,

I installed the widget foundation and found the tutorial helpful when craeting a simple RFC call widget for displaying a customers details.

In the description document I raed even RESTful services can be created with the foundation.

Is a tutorial or at least a prototype application available ? How can a REST service be build in SAP anyway (say for a customer) ?

Would be great to skip all the RFc and SOAP stuff in favour of http://myserver:port/customers/12345 for all the details.

Any help on this is appreciated.

REST service can be simple BSP page which takes some parameters and process them and returns the result in xml or json format.

check out my weblog at /people/durairaj.athavanraja/blog/2006/10/10/sap-logged-on-users-list-widget ,

i am using a similar approach
