Rest path for application - rest

I'm fairly new to Spring Boot, but I want to want to build my application in such a way, that can deploy mulitple applications on the same server and i want to distinguish the applications in the rest path.
For example, say i have the applications user-management and animal-management and i have a rest-controller in both of them responding to the path \names.
Both those applications run on localhost:8080 so when sending a GET to localhost:8080/users/names, I want the controller of the user-management to react and the same for animal with a GET to localhost:8080/animals/names.
I can put a #RequestMapping on the controller to acchieve the names part, but if i do the same on the application, it gets ignored.
Basically I want to tell my application "Every controller in this application should be mapped to the rest path specified on the controller, but prefixed with 'x'".
How can I do that.

I was looking for the contextPath, I just didn't know the name.
By putting the server.contextPath=/users attribute in the application.properies it worked like i wanted to.
Thank you #Vaionixx

Assign names to applications without Service Fabric

I have an application in the service fabric and I'm going to upload another one.
I wonder if it's possible to assign different names to each application.
With an application, I access using the address:
http://sf-spartan.eastus.cloudapp.azure.com
You can configure for access to look like this:?
http://application1.sf-spartan.eastus.cloudapp.azure.com
or
http://sf-spartan.eastus.cloudapp.azure.com/application1
Sure, have a look here. Use the ApplicationName argument to define it.
Every application instance you create must in fact have a unique name.
You can reach your application instance through its url by using a reverse proxy. (either the built-in one, or a custom one like Traefik)
Usually, the application and service name are part of the url, e.g.:
http://mycluster.eastus.cloudapp.azure.com:19081/MyApp/MyService
This does require a web based communication listener.

Where to store File/Images in Wildfly server?

I am using Wildfly 9.0.2.Final, while in development, all my files that uploaded via my web service and stored in resources/images are gone when I perform a full-publish (luckily this are development dummy images). In production, where is the best place to store or best practice to prevent files/images from missing?
If the files belong somehow to your application, place the somewhere inside the web application (and outside of WEB-INF). They will be accessible through the respective URL path.
If your application needs to store user data that gets uploaded dynamically during application runtime and shall persist even if you redeploy the application, then you better have a configurable directory on disk. One default option to find the JBoss/Wildfly data directory could be to query for the system property 'jboss.server.data.dir'.

Using HTTPS and multiple NSURLProtectionSpace's in iOS

I'm creating a iOS app that requires the user to log in at startup, and then uses those credentials to query 4-5 different services on a server over the course of the session.
The server (xyz) it self doesn't accept the credentials, but if the services that it provides are queried then they get accepted. For example https://xyz/service1 works, https://xyz doesn't.
Now what I'm wondering about is if there is anything that stands in the way of creating 4-5 NSURLProtectionSpace's at log in, one for each service on the server, and then use the corresponding protection space when use each service?
Or is there a better way of implementing something that could work in this situation?
All help would be appreciated.
Turns out that there is nothing that stands in the way of creating multiple NSURLProtectionSpace's since each is created for a separate url.

Beginner GXT issues

We have a working web application, which has been developed with ExtJS for client side, and Struts, Spring, Hibernate for server side. now, we are considering to migrate to GXT (or may be GWT itself). The thing is I'm very new to GWT/GXT. and we are trying to decide whether we go down this road or not.
1) Until now, we have 2 domains for our web-app. one is that the application (Struts+...) have been deployed to, and the other is mainly a cookie-less custom CDN. The transfer between client and server is mostly XHR requests, sending/receiving JSON and/or JSONP. But with the new approach ahead of us, I began to understand that we are supposed to have only ONE domain, for the whole GXT application. Is it correct or I forgot to consider something here?
and if not, Is it possible that we deployed just part of the application (i.e. com.ourcompany.webapp.gxt.server.*) to the main server, and the contents that have been compiled and generated by the GWT compiler to the other CDN-like domain?
2) The other big issue we are facing is that the current application is consists of mostly 3 huge modules. One is responsible for "SignIn", the other is for "Webtop", and the third one is "Modules which each users has access to". The latter has been generated on the server due to "access rights" of each users, and obviously could be different from one user to the other.
The only thing I could find on this matter, which might be related is Code Splitting. Although I'm not totally sure if this would be the right solution for this.
We want that the application, on Start Up, checks whether user has been logged in or not. if not, loads the SignIn sets of javascript files (i.e webapp.signin.nocache.js), then after user has entered the correct username/password, unloads this signin file and loads webtop.nocache.js AND modules.nocache.js.
I would be really appreciated if you could help me out.
1) If your GWT app is loaded from a different domain than you have to face the same origin policy. You can not do a xhr to a different domain. You could use the ScriptTagProxy to get around this. But it does not feel very netural.
2) You can use CodeSplitting in order to automatically load a particular part of your application dynamically. All you have to do is to warp your splitt point into an async call.
A detailed compile report gives you a pretty good overview how well code splitting is working.
But CodeSplitting does not unload already loaded code. If its really importend to do so you have to redirect the user to another url in order to load the appropriate user depended module.
Once Javascript code has been loaded and executed its impossible to remove the code from the browsers memory.

testing wcf service in browser

How can i test a wcf service in a browser? I mean if i only enter the url in the browser it should give me only relevent xml
It depends on what type of WCF service you have:
if you're using a WCF REST service (webHttpBinding), then you should be able to just navigate to the service address, e.g. http://yourserver/somedir/service.svc
if you're using anything else, you have a SOAP service, and you cannot test a SOAP service in a web browser - the browser just doesn't understand and speak SOAP. There's however a WCF Test Client app in your C:\ drive somewhere which you can use for that purpose.
Make a test application for it. It can be as simple as having a UI with a bunch of buttons, when you press a button then a certain function exposed by the WCF service is called, you could maybe echo the output to a textblock in the app. You could also have a bunch of input type UI items (textboxes, dropdowns, whatever) so you can select parameters to pass to the WCF function.
If you want to be really classy, then make a set of unit tests for it - this means that you will have to have it hosted somewhere though so that it can be called any time the tests are run.
