http-method

Thinking about REST, it's relatively easy to map HTTP methods to CRUD actions: POST for create, GET for read, etc. But what about "fire and forget" actions? What HTTP method would best represent a fire and forget action such as triggering a batch job (in which no response is sent back to the caller)? POST would spring to mind, but I think GET is also an appropriate method because 99% of the time you only supply a bunch of parameters to these types of actions. What do you think? POST would spring to mind, but I think GET is a more appropriate method because 99% of the time you only supply a

This question already has answers here : Where are the request method constants in the Servlet API? (6 answers) Closed 6 years ago . For example, HttpServletResponse has the HTTP status codes as constants like public static final int SC_OK = 200; public static final int SC_CREATED = 201; public static final int SC_BAD_REQUEST = 400; public static final int SC_UNAUTHORIZED = 401; public static final int SC_NOT_FOUND = 404; Is there any such constants defined for HTTP methods like GET , POST , ..., anywhere in the Java EE API so that it could be referenced easily, rather than creating one on my

Maybe this person will be considerate enough to show me the right path. But... One of the " guidelines " or " best practices " of REST as it applies to Web Services ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Representational_state_transfer#Applied_to_web_services ) is that you should use the proper HTTP methods when making calls (did I misunderstand it?) to REST API's. But looking at many API implementations on the web, what I see is that 100% of the calls made to

Spring 3 MVC supports all 4 of RESTful methods: GET, POST, PUT and DELETE. But does its view technology support them on forms? If not, what is the real use of method attribute in form:form tag? I tried to use PUT method on the form: <form:form action="/myaction" method="PUT"> ... </form:form> Generated HTML was: <form id="command" action="/myaction" method="post"> <input type="hidden" name="_method" value="PUT"/> ... </form> It is clear since most browsers don't support other methods besides GET and POST . But Spring can handle it with additional input with name _method and value METHOD_NAME .
