[Lazarus] testing demorestbridge without a web server: is that possible?

[duilio foschi]

Dear Zeljko,

>If this results in error 400-40xx

this is exactly what happens :)

c:\>curl -u Detlef:secret   -H "Content-Type: application/json"
"http://localhost:3000/REST/metadata"
{
  "error" : {
    "code" : 404,
    "message" : "NOT FOUND"
  }
}


>then you must include connection after
REST
eg  http://localhost:3000/REST/YOURDEFAULTCONNECTIONNAME/metadata


gulp! Which is my default connection name?

Thank you

Peppe
