FAQ

1. I can't connect to restup / HeadedDemo / HeadlessDemo from my local machine

This is due to a limitation imposed by Microsoft on the underlying StreamSocketListener (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/32665847/cannot-connect-to-streamsocketlistener).

The only calls accepted are ones from the network, or calls from the same process (see HeadedDemo).

2. I can't connect to restup / HeadedDemo / HeadlessDemo from my remote machine

In the Package.appxmanifest of your project, under the capabilities, make sure you have the following Capabilities enabled:

• Internet (Client)
• Internet (Client & Server)
• Private Networks (Client & Server)

3. Does restup support SSL / will restup support SSL in the future?

At the moment the StreamSocketListener in windows universal does not support SSL, so for now it is out of scope. We would love to have SSL support, so if you have any ideas, feel free to add it to the existing issue: https://github.com/tomkuijsten/restup/issues/31.

4. I'm using structs in one of my rest controllers and it doesn't work

See this issue for the reason why this is not supported: https://github.com/tomkuijsten/restup/issues/61

5. Are you planning on supporting more content types (beside json/xml)

No we don't as json and xml are the most commonly used types.
