Consuming Custom Request Methods with iOS5

问题:

My original question regarding Consuming Custom Request Methods with Android seems to have garnered very little attention -- I have converted it to an Android specific question

So, quite simply, with iOS5 development, is it possible to consume custom request methods?

If so, how.

The "standard" set of request methods, as per RFC-2616 are:

• GET
• PUT
• POST
• DELETE
• TRACE
• CONNECT

I would like to add another, called SEARCH. On the API, using PHP or Java, this is easy to implement in PHP. The consumption of this new request method is proving to be a challenge for an iOS developer.

Does anyone have any references to working examples or frameworks that will support a custom request method, such as SEARCH, or FOOBAR?

ASIHTTPRequest allows it: http://allseeing-i.com/ASIHTTPRequest/How-to-use

Check out the 'PUT requests and custom POSTs' section.

[request setRequestMethod:@"SOME_REQUEST_METHOD"];
