How to attach a restlet to a partiular URL path scheme (HTTP or HTTPS)?

Question

I'm using Restlet 2.3.2

I'd like to run a Restlet server with both HTTP and HTTPS protocols, but I'd like to attach a different restlet to each one. For exemple, restletUnsecure to HTTP but restletSecure to HTTPS. Actualy, attaching only one restlet to the path /test works properly.

I tried putting the scheme in the URI while attaching, like this, but this does not work (I get a page not found with my browser) :

Server server = component.getServers().add(Protocol.HTTPS, 8443);
component.getServers().add(Protocol.HTTP, 8080);
[...]
component.getDefaultHost().attach("https://localhost:8443/test", restletSecure);
component.getDefaultHost().attach("http://localhost:8080/test", restletUnsecure);

How can I achieve this ?

I think that you should define specific virtual hosts HTTP and HTTPS requests, as described below:

Component component = (...)

// HTTPS
VirtualHost hostHttps
      = new VirtualHost(component.getContext());
component.getHosts().add(hostHttps);
hostHttps.setHostScheme("https");

Restlet restletSecure = (...)
hostHttps.attachDefault(restletSecure);

// HTTP
VirtualHost hostHttp
      = new VirtualHost(component.getContext());
component.getHosts().add(hostHttp);
hostHttp.setHostScheme("http");

Restlet restletUnsecure = (...)
hostHttp.attachDefault(restletUnsecure);

Hope it helps you, Thierry
