    • Method Detail

      • call

        protected ClientResponse call​(OslcResource resource)
        Executes a GET request on the resource.

        An OSLC-Core-Version header is set to 2.0, as the GET is expected to execute on an OSLC resource. Clients should subclass AbstractResourceRequest to execute a GET on a non-OSLC resource.

        Specified by:
        call in class AbstractResourceRequest<ResourceResponse<T>>
        Parameters:
        resource - the resource on which to execute a request.
        Returns:
        the response of the request execution.
      • get

        public T get()
        Executes the GET request and extracts the response entity directly, in case the response headers are not of any use. This method is a shorthand for myRequest.call().getEntity().
        Returns:
        the entity of the response of the GET execution.
      • createResponse

        protected ResourceResponse<T> createResponse​(OslcResource resource,
                                                     ClientResponse response)
        Extracts a ResourceResponse instance from the obtained HTTP response. The response contains the response headers, from which the ETag header can be extracted in case this request is to follow by a PUT.
        Specified by:
        createResponse in class AbstractResourceRequest<ResourceResponse<T>>
        Parameters:
        resource - the resource on which a request is executed.
        response - the response obtained.
        Returns:
        the extraction of the response content into the expected format.
