Hi All
I have used Odata4j to create Odata Service and deployed in tomcat. When i use Sesame Data Browser i can see a Table
(if i click on THREAD ) having header. My question what should be the url to see the same data in web-browser? I want to consume this in a service so want to know url.

If i type this in http://localhost:8888/OdataEx/example.svc browser i can see some XML 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?> 
 <service xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2007/app" xml:base="http://localhost:8888/OdataEx/example.svc/" xmlns:atom="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom" xmlns:app="http://www.w3.org/2007/app">
 <workspace>
  <atom:title>Default</atom:title> 
 <collection href="Threads">
  <atom:title>Threads</atom:title> 
  </collection>
  </workspace>
  </service>


and Java code generating service is 

public class ExampleProducerFactory implements ODataProducerFactory {
  public ODataProducer create(Properties properties) {
    InMemoryProducer producer = new InMemoryProducer("example");
    // expose this jvm's thread information (Thread instances) as an entity-set called "Threads"
    producer.register(Thread.class, Long.class, "Threads", new Func<Iterable<Thread>>() {
      public Iterable<Thread> apply() {
        ThreadGroup tg = Thread.currentThread().getThreadGroup();
        while (tg.getParent() != null)
          tg = tg.getParent();
        Thread[] threads = new Thread[50];
        int count = tg.enumerate(threads, true);
        return Enumerable.create(threads).take(count);
      }
    }, Funcs.method(Thread.class, Long.class, "getId"));
    return producer;
  }
}

To see a specific entity set just append the entity set name to the URL. For example:

The sample service URL is: http://services.odata.org/OData/OData.svc/

To see the Products entity set, go to: http://services.odata.org/OData/OData.svc/Products

Note that this is also described in the service document returned by the .svc directly. Each collection element has an href attribute which is a relative URL pointing to that collection.

If you want to see data from browser then just add entityset name after .svc. you can also put the query to see the filterd data

The sample service URL is: http://services.odata.org/OData/OData.svc/

http://services.odata.org/OData/OData.svc/entitynameset
