Question

I’m using the latest Jax-RS + Glassfish versions and I’ve been trying to version my API. For some reason, if I include embedded variables in my @Path Root Resource Class it doesn’t even take the variables in consideration.

@Path("/v{versionNum}/tasks")
public class Tasks {
    @SuppressWarnings("unused")
    @Context
    private UriInfo context;
}

My Context Root is /api

My web.xml includes:

 <servlet>
    <description>JAX-RS Tools Generated - Do not modify</description>
    <servlet-name>JAX-RS Servlet</servlet-name>
    <servlet-class>com.sun.jersey.spi.container.servlet.ServletContainer</servlet-class>
    <load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
  </servlet>
  <servlet-mapping>
    <servlet-name>JAX-RS Servlet</servlet-name>
    <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
  </servlet-mapping>

Now if I try to hit
localhost:8080/api/v1/tasks, I get a 404.
If I hit
localhost:8080/api/tasks, it works!

I just don’t get what I’m doing wrong here. Any help would be appreciated thanks!

sun-web.xml

<sun-web-app>
  <context-root>/api</context-root>
</sun-web-app>  

web.xml

...  
<servlet>
    <servlet-name>ServletAdaptor</servlet-name>
    <servlet-class>com.sun.jersey.spi.container.servlet.ServletContainer</servlet-class>
    <load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
    <servlet-name>ServletAdaptor</servlet-name>
    <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>  
...  

HelloWorldService.java

@Path("/v{version}/tasks")  

deploy on GlassFish
http://localhost:8080/api/v1/tasks – works well
