org.restlet.resource
Class ClientResource

java.lang.Object
  extended by org.restlet.resource.UniformResource
      extended by org.restlet.resource.ClientResource

public class ClientResource
extends UniformResource

Client-side resource. Acts like a proxy of a target resource.
This class changes the semantics of the UniformResource.getRequest() and UniformResource.getResponse() methods. Since a clientResource may receive severals responses for a single request (in case of interim response), the UniformResource.getResponse() method returns the last received response object. The Request object returned by the UniformResource.getRequest() is actually a prototype which is cloned (except the representation) just before the handle() method is called.
Users must be aware that by most representations can only be read or written once. Some others, such as StringRepresentation stored the entity in memory which can be read several times but has the drawback to consume memory.
Concurrency note: instances of the class are not designed to be shared among several threads. If thread-safety is necessary, consider using the lower-level Client class instead.
