I would like to use RESTful services in a CDI/JSF2 application. I am not very familiar with JAX-RS however I have read that its lifecycle does not play well with CDI/JSF2. Is it possible to incorporate JAX-RS with CDI/JSF2 in a JEE6 stack? If not are there alternatives?
thanks
You can use JAX-RS just fine along side a JSF application, however, they don’t play well together. For instance, you can’t use JAX-RS to have “http://localhost:8080/story/92/” return a JSF page with a Story entity with ID 92.
You can, however, use PrettyFaces to do something very similar to this.
JAX-RS makes sense for non-JSF resources. “http://localhost:8080/story.xml” makes perfect sense for JAX-RS.
