Comment on Outlook Calendar REST API by drinkJava

You can use header ‘Range’ to request a subset of search results (similar to SQL LIMIT):
Range: rows=0-9

The HTTP standard Range request header is defined for specifying the number of bytes returned. When used with the “rows” specifier, the WebDAV engine recognizes it as indicating the set of rows to return.

There’s a tutorial at http://linuxbox.co.uk/firefox_extension_tutorial.php, but it’s really just a beginners guide. Obviously there’s the moz dev site too, which has a lot of useful info (just a question of finding it)

Comment on REST vs HTTP+POX vs SOAP by Adam Trachtenberg

Vitaly –

You must not have read the comments, where I clarify my post to say:

“This is not what *I* define as REST, HTTP+POX, and SOAP, or believe the “correct” definitions are.

However, in my opinion, based on talking up eBay web services at many places for the past 2.5 years, if you went to a couple of web conferences and polled the attendees on their definitions of the terms, the results would be what I describe above.”

Things have changed a lot around REST in the past 4 years, so I don’t think I would make those statements today, but I still contend that was common opinion in 2006.

REST == HTTP GET ??? Can’t be further from the truth. To the contrary REST encourages proper use of HTTP verbs. For example Rails REST implementation uses GET, POST, PUT and DELETE.

I’m one of those who googled “at least one LoadModule directive” in quotes and ended up here. Worked perfectly on Ubuntu 9. thanks!

Hi,

I have read the book myself, and like most people, have thoroughly enjoyed it!

Does anyone have any cons about this book? If so, could you please share them.
