support for other HTTP methods

[JoeStrout]

I'm investigating switching from ASIHTTPRequest to STHTTPRequest for our REST connection. But it appears hat STHTTPRequest offers no control over the HTTP method used (it looks like it's always POST if there's any data attached, and otherwise perhaps GET?).

REST services require use of other methods — in particular, PUT to create a new resource.

How hard would it be to add that as an optional property on STHTTPRequest?

It would not be that hard, it just requires much care and testing to be sure not to break anything.

I intend to add support for REST services by adding a HTTPMethod property.

I'll update this issue in a few days when it will be done.

Are other HTTP methods are supported now? For example "PUT"?

[nst]

Yes, use the HTTPMethod property: r.HTTPMethod = @"PUT";
