The general web server configuration is described in the EDMWebServices_UserGuide (for Java and IIS). This document explains only modifications needed to activate REST services in older installations that were published using SOAP WS.

For a Java Servlet-based web server, add servlet definition and servlet mapping into 'web.xml' *_+configuration file:+_*

 

 <servlet>
<servlet-name>RESTServlet</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>edmws.webapp.servlets.RESTServlet</servlet-class>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>RESTServlet</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/REST/</url-pattern>*
</servlet-mapping>

 


For IIS web server, add one more mapping into value of 'mappings' application parameters
(<appSettings>, key=' mappings'):


 <add key="mappings" value="
/REST,edmws.webapp.servlets.RESTServlet;
.....





NOTE: all REST methods URLs below omit the beginning of the URL string, which should obviously include Host, Port, Context Name (web application context path for Java / virtual server path for IIS), REST service name (servlet mapping path for Java / mapping name parameter for IIS), like for example:
*http://localhost:8080/EDMWS/REST/*
