Function Documentation

void rest_activate_resource	(	resource_t *	resource,
		char *	path
	)

Makes a resource available under the given URI path.

Resources wanted to be accessible should be activated with the following code.

Parameters

resource	A pointer to a resource implementation
path	The URI path string for this resource

The resource implementation must be imported first using the extern keyword. The build system takes care of compiling every *.c file in the ./resources/ sub-directory (see example Makefile).
