The Designer comes with many adapters (see Adapters) that allow you to access a variety of backends via different interfaces. Requests to REST services, and via REST adapters use the HTTP protocol.
- With this protocol, the xUML Runtime serves a set of standard headers (via libcurl) as described below (Standard HTTP Headers with xUML Service Adapters).
- Also, the Runtime provides interfaces to act as a variety of services. In general, the Runtime supports HTTP 1.0 for services but some features of HTTP 1.1 are implemented as well (see Standard HTTP Headers with Service Implementations below).
