handle

public void handle(Request request,

Description copied from class: Restlet

Handles a call. The default behavior is to call the (now deprecated) Restlet.init(Request, Response) method. In next version, Restlet.init(Request, Response) will be removed and its logic directly added to this method instead.

Subclasses overriding this method should make sure that they call super.handle(request, response) before adding their own logic.

Overrides:

handle in class Restlet

Parameters:

request - The request to handle.

response - The response to update.

setConnectTimeout

public void setConnectTimeout(int connectTimeout)

Sets the connection timeout.

Parameters:

connectTimeout - The connection timeout.
