Following is my server side code in GWT

             WebResource service = client.resource(getBaseURI());

            System.out.println(service.path("hello")
                    .accept(MediaType.TEXT_PLAIN).get(ClientResponse.class)
                    .toString());

            System.out.println(service.path("hello")
                    .accept(MediaType.TEXT_PLAIN).get(String.class));

            System.out.println(service.path("hello").accept(MediaType.TEXT_XML)

        return UriBuilder.fromUri("http://localhost:8080/RestWeb/webresources")
                .build();

}

I used the following packages for inheriting required classes

com.sun.jersey.jersey-core-1.4.0.jar

jersey-core-1.7.jar

jsr311-api-1.1.1.jar

Following are classes in webservice

 @Path("/hello")

    // This method is called if TEXT_PLAIN is request
    @GET
    @Produces(MediaType.TEXT_PLAIN)
    public String sayPlainTextHello() {

    }

    // This method is called if XML is request
    @GET
    @Produces(MediaType.TEXT_XML)
    public String sayXMLHello() {
        return "<?xml version=\"1.0\"?>" + "<hello> Hello Jersey" + "</hello>";
    }

    // This method is called if HTML is request
    @GET
    @Produces(MediaType.TEXT_HTML)
    public String sayHtmlHello() {
        return "<html> " + "<title>" + "Hello Jersey" + "</title>"
                + "<body><h1>" + "Hello Jersey" + "</body></h1>" + "</html> ";
    }

    @GET
    @Path("get")
    @Produces(MediaType.TEXT_HTML)
    public String getXml() {

    return "xyz";
    }
}

I got solution
GWT is not supporting some packages. I found that RequestBuilder class in GWT can connect with REST web service,
I use RequestBuilder class to connect with REST web service. But I didn’t get any thing from webservice because my GWT and REST application have different ports and domains. It overcome by setting Access-Control-Allow-Orgin in header

Following is my client side code(GWT)

    public void onModuleLoad() {
        RequestBuilder builder = new RequestBuilder(RequestBuilder.POST,
         "http://localhost:8080/RestWeb/webresources/generic/post/"
         +"haiiiiiii");
        builder.setCallback(new RequestCallback() {

         @Override
         public void onResponseReceived(Request request,
        Response response) {

         Window.alert("onResponseReceived"
        + response.getStatusCode() + response.getText());

         }

         @Override
         public void onError(Request request, Throwable exception) {

         }
         });
        builder.setHeader("Content-Type", "text/plain");
         builder.setHeader("Access-Control-Allow-Methods",
         "PUT, GET, POST, DELETE, OPTIONS");
         builder.setHeader("Access-Control-Allow-Headers",
         "Content-Type");
         builder.setHeader("Access-Control-Allow-Origin",
         "http://127.0.0.1:8888");
         try {
         builder.send();
         } catch (RequestException e) {
         // TODO Auto-generated catch block
         e.printStackTrace();
         }
}

Following is my server side code

 @Path("generic")
@WebService

public class GenericResource {

    @Context
    private UriInfo context;
    @Context
    private HttpServletResponse response;
    private String content = "content";

    @GET
    @Path("get")
    @Produces(MediaType.TEXT_HTML)
    public String getXml() {
        System.out.println("\n\n\nGET\n\n\n");
        //response.addHeader(content, content);
        return this.content+" from get method";

    }

    /**
