const classafBedSheet::Text

sys::Obj
  afBedSheet::Text

Return from request handler methods to send a text response to the client.

This is purposely a concrete final class so there is no ambiguity as to what it is. For example, if a handler returned an Obj that was both a Text and a Redirect what is BedSheet supposed to do?

Best practice is to have your Entities implement a toText() or a toJson() method and return the result of that.

Obj myHandler(MyEntity entity) {
  ...
  return entity.toJson
}

Note: prior to Fantom 1.0.66 the charset will always default to UTF-8 regardless of what Text is constructed with. See http://fantom.org/sidewalk/topic/2166#c13992.
