Description Eduard Bartsch CLA 2010-09-20 06:00:44 EDT 
Currently, a REST URL (that is pointing to a remote REST resource) is put into the query part of the linked resource URL without any encoding/decoding. It is added as value of the url parameter (i.e. "&url=<nested REST URL>"). When the REST URL contains one or more '&' character that is not allowed with the URL query part value, the value is cut off at the first accurance of the '&' character. The REST URL may also contain other characters that are not allowed as part of URL query string.

The solution is to encode/decode the REST URL using JDK's URLEncode/URLDecode classes.
