Most likely any solution will be portable among any Java web container.

The standard way is using JAX-RS.

I believe that Spring has its own non-standard thing.

http://server/"any path"/object_identifier/state is easy
as it is just a normal RESTful GET request.

http://server/"any path"/object_identifier/methodname is
tricky because it is not RESTful but RPC style.

RESTful only have resources and GET, POST, PUT and DELETE.
