/**
* An implementation of the RKRouter protocol that is suitable for use in either
* static or dynamic route generation. Static routes are added by simply encoding
* the resourcePath that the mappable object should be sent to when a GET, POST, PUT
* or DELETE action is invoked. Dynamic routes are available by encoding key paths into
* the resourcePath using a single colon delimiter, such as /users/:userID
*/

/**
* Register a mapping from an object class to a resource path. This resourcePath can be static
* (i.e. /this/is/the/path) or dynamic (i.e. /users/:userID/:username). Dynamic routes are
* evaluated against the object being routed using Key-Value coding and coerced into a string.
* *NOTE *- The pattern matcher fully supports KVM, so /:key1.otherKey normally resolves as it
* would in any other KVM situation, ... otherKey is a sub-key on a the object represented by
* key1. This presents a problem in situations where you might want to build a pattern like
* /:filename.json, where the dot isn't intended as a sub-key on the dynamic "filename", but
* rather it is part of the "json" static string. In these instances, you need to escape the
* dot with two backslashes, like so: /:filename\\.json

* Register a mapping from an object class to a resource path for a specific HTTP method,

* your own fully escaped dynamic resource path via a method/attribute on the object model.
* For example, if your Person model has a string attribute titled "polymorphicResourcePath" that returns
* @"/this/is/the/path", you should configure the route with url escapes 'off', otherwise the router will return
* @"%2Fthis%2Fis%2Fthe%2Fpath".
