I am looking to avoid using iframes and was wondering, if
anyone knows if server side includes are supported in restlet se?
I don't think so but there are extension libraries for both FreeMarker http://restlet.org/learn/guide/2.1/extensions/freemarker and Velocity http://restlet.org/learn/guide/2.1/extensions/velocity with which you will potentially be able to achieve the result you desire, although I cannot be sure with so little detail.

I have a question and was hoping that you could maybe help me out. I currently built an API to communicate between Catia (CAD-Application) and my browser so I can create parts/products read and write parameters etc.
One of my problems is that the only way I know to do this is via ActiveX which I really don't wanna do as it forces everyone to use IE11. Since CatiaV5 is a pretty old Software there won't be any elegant way to use it via some sort of Restful api or similar.
Since I've been working with JavaScript for a while now, did apps for phones but have no idea about browser extensions my question was this. Is it possible to write a Chrome Extension that actually uses com dlls and enables me to set up a connection to a piece of software (in this case Catia) and work with it.
NPAPI plug-ins could be the solution for my problem as it looks from the information I found but it's also supposed to also being phased out.
Do you think it's still worth looking into deeper and studying on writing such an NPAPI app or is there maybe a more elegant way you can think of?
Would be happy for some ideas and suggestions. Thanks in advance and
Greetings Chris
In modern browsers the only way to do this would be using native messaging:
Chrome
Firefox
Edge
FireBreath2 has an abstraction for building c++ plugins which supports native messaging, though the docs are still a little sparse.
Zetakey browser support NPAPI.
We provide HTML5 browser embedded system for industrial and enterprise application.

I've spent the last few days trying to understand if I should use api blueprint, RAML or swagger.
It looks like swagger has the biggest community but the closer I look the more I feel that it greatly lacks in documentation (I was forced to look at the code many times to try and integrate it with my current project), many github issues and stackoverflow questions are unanswered.
Is it possible that I am missing something here?
All I want is a tool to help me write the API documentation and test the endpoints.
Why must swagger become part of the server logic?? If I create swagger files in the editor and then serve them to the UI directly it breaks..
As far as I can tell it even makes the server slightly slower and forces the existence of many clumsily maintained integrations :p What am I missing here?
We're trying to work a lot on improving the documentation of Swagger. It's a bit more difficult when many of the projects are community-driven and not managed by a single organization.
We actually try to reply to issues on github quickly (we don't always succeed) and we have our own google group for general questions so we follow stackoverflow somewhat less.
The editor you mention is a new tool as part of the work on Swagger 2.0 and it's not final yet. As such, it still have a few bugs and missing features. The UI is also in the process of being adapted to Swagger 2.0 and the same limitations apply to it.
You most certainly don't have to integrate it with your server and you can expose the documentation statically. The advantage of integrating it with the server is that it's easier to maintain if the API changes.
You can try RAML + ramlev + Abao
The steps should be
Write API Spec in RAML with your fav editor, ie. Atom, vim
Validate your RAML with ramlev
Implement the server logic according API Spec
Validate server logic with Abao
I have an application which is running with dojo 1.2 having support for InternetExplorer8 only
so my problem is that I want to upgrate dojo version to 1.7 and InternetExplorer9/otherborwsers compatible,
so which API do I need to change? I am using all three dojo,dijit,dojox.
is there any solution or not ?
Thanks in advance....
There has been so many changes that I do not even know where to start...
You will probably have to rewrite a lot of code, but it is, I guess, a necessary pain to get to something much better.
You might want to write on some paper your custom widgets architectures, what they use etc, then try rewriting them in AMD with dojo1.7 or dojo 1.8 rc1
I would recommand a complete rewrite (not necessarily a complete rethink though).
Dojo 1.7+ are way much better than 1.2 in perfs, size, widgets available, power and flexibility, it is totally worth it.
Is it possible to integrate a webkit engine in a java application.
Here is my thinking, I would like to implement my User Interface using javascript and business logic in Java and want to communicate back and forth between the js and java. I have looked at titanium and chromiumembedded. But i dont get the complete picture. Can anyone give me a good explanation of webkit being used in a standalone application.
There are a few solutions, the main one being for SWT. See here for the SWT solution. There was a similar question here referring to SWING.
Edit: Oh my, I can't believe I forgot Lobo, a browser written in Java. More Specifically, their Browser API providers support for embedding. This seems to be the better solution for cross-platform and possibly stability. I'm not 100% sure on the first two solutions' development. Hope that provides some insight.
JavaFX 2 has an embedded browser component based on Webkit. There is a tutorial provided by Oracle here.
I've noticed that the StyledTextControl (Scintilla basically) in wxWidgets has a great feature that allows multi-selections of text, just like TextMate. However wxRuby doesn't seem to have the function calls to support that feature. I'm wonder if there is a way to enable it or if there might be a way I could rewrite that wrapper to include that function.
It seems strange that they would purposely omit that since they are seemingly pretty exhaustive on most functions calls. Any insight on this would be greatly appreciated. I'm trying to write an open source TextMate clone in Ruby and it's gonna be pretty hard without MultiSelect, I could probably hack something together but it'd be ugly. Thanks ahead of time.
You don't write which version of wxWidgets you are using, but AFAIK only the 2.x versions of the Scintilla library support MultiSelect, which isn't available in stable wxWidgets. wxWidgets 2.8.10 uses Scintilla version 1.70. The SVN trunk uses version 1.75.
