S2 REST plugin URL mapping convention

[ManiKanta G <go...@gmail.com>]

Hi,

In S2 REST plugin, the url mapping convention is POST for create, PUT for
update (as with the Rails style).

But from Sun tuts (
http://java.sun.com/developer/technicalArticles/WebServices/restful/) I see
POST for update, PUT for create.
I observed similar behavior in lot many frameworks/applications (ex: Orbeon
forms, on which I m currently working).

Which convention is correct or at least meaningful?

Thanks,

Hmm... I found this two different behaviors in the S2 documentation itself.
POST -> create , PUT -> update:
http://struts.apache.org/2.x/docs/rest-plugin.html

PUT -> create, POST -> update:
http://cwiki.apache.org/S2PLUGINS/restful-crud-for-html-methods.html

which one to choose? confused!

Thanks,
