Have basic HTTP methods PUT / POST / DELETE any meaning for Uniface ?

I'm trying to understand if other basic HTTP methods PUT / POST / DELETE / TRACE / OPTIONS / etc have any meaning to Uniface WAS. As far as I've understood with current Uniface WebApplicationServer GET is the only method used...but I could be wrong! I did not find any references in current Uniface Library (9.6.X503) to the other methods. Working with others environment a Web Server can be activated with the other methods...something like: HttpWebRequest request = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create ("http://myserver/mypath/myservice/?id=101"); request.Method = "POST"; request.ContentType = "application/atom+xml"; Stream requestStream = myHttpWebRequest.GetRequestStream (); requestStream.Write(newPost, 0, newPost.Length); requestStream.Close(); HttpWebResponse response = (HttpWebResponse)request.GetResponse(); if (response.StatusCode != HttpStatusCode.Created) { // Error }

Could Uniface WAS recognize a POST request like this? What will be the context at application level?

 

Can someone clean up my sky from the clouds?

 

Thanks,

Gianni
