PathParam with @POST

[Deepa Sreedhara]

@Path("/Food")								
public class FoodService
{
	static int index;
	Food ff=new Food();


@Path("{item}")
@POST

public String addItem(@PathParam("item") String item)
{
ff.setMenu(item);
return "index:"+ index+" "+item;
}
}

Could someone let me know if POST works well with PathParam? On deployment I'm getting HTTP 405 error for "http://localhost:8080/RestTwo/two/Food/abc" where 'two' is url-pattern.

Yes, it does.

How does your client code look like?

[Deepa Sreedhara]

I dont know how to write a client. Is it a way to resolve the error?

[Frits Walraven]

Do you use an HTML/JSP page that submits the request?

[Deepa Sreedhara]

I'm using RestClient Firefox add-on to test the webservice. Pathparam for GET request are ok, but for POST, its giving the Http 405 error.

[Frits Walraven]

405 means "method not allowed'.

Can you post the setup of the @GET method that works well? Is that method in the same class?
