Hi, One additional idea, maybe good, maybe bad: if your application really does route all requests that have a certain base URI to the same resource, you could also try just attaching the router to /ABC and use request.getResourceRef().getRemainingPart() to obtain the rest of the URI path not matched by the base URI, which you could then parse up according to your app's specific needs. You'll lose the auto-parsing of param1 and param2, but you'll maintain complete control over the formatting of the remaining URI part.
