I am trying to figure out how to get the parameters from a Restlet request object.

my request comes in as /customer?userId=1 and I want to grab the parameter to pass to my DAO for the query.

@Get("xml")
public Representation toXml() throws ResourceException, Exception
{
    try
    {
        //get param from request
                    //call DAO with parameter
    }
    catch(Exception e)
    {
        throw e;
    }
}
