Fun with REST, Spring 3 and Jasper

Hey folks, in this post i will show how to have fun coding Web services with REST, Spring 3 and Jasper Reports. First of all i will give you some background about REST. We gonna code our Web Service REST using Apache CXF . You can work the old way, with CXF using the standards like ws-* but here we will use REST only. Why REST? REST(Representational State Transfer) is not a standard. It is an Architectural Style defined in 2000 by Roy Fielding . The Style basically consist in leverage http method like PUT, DELETE and not be stuck only to POST and GET.

So there is this rush for process standardization, fetish for paper, assurance and other nasty habits. Maybe is possible have CMMI and still not SUCK(there is a lot o people in agile development talking about that) i just still think that is hard and waste of time. We can do better and cheaper with less than 5 years. The idea of ...
