    Resolution: Not A Problem

>                 Key: CXF-5066
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CXF-5066
>             Project: CXF
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: JAX-RS
>    Affects Versions: 2.7.5
>            Reporter: Simon Gerber
>            Assignee: Sergey Beryozkin
>            Priority: Minor
>
> Consider an annotated interface and implementation as follows
> {noformat}
> @Path("example")
> public interface Example {
>      
>     @GET
>     ExampleResponse get();
> }
> public class ExampleImpl implements Example {
>     @Override
>     public ExampleResponse get() { // ... }
> }
> {noformat}
> The documentation states that 'most JAX-RS annotations can be inherited from 
> the superclass or interface'. However in the above example CXF will reject 
> this resource as ResourceUtils.createClassResourceInfo() fails to find any 
> dispatcher methods. 
> The reason for this is that AnnotationUtils.doGetAnnotatedMethod() returns 
> the concrete class method because it has an Override annotation on it. 
> Therefore it does not find the method annotation.
> The workaround is to remove the Override annotation - however since many IDEs 
> (such as Eclipse) are configured to add this by default it could be 
> considered a case where user expectations will not be met. This caveat was 
> not documented anywhere and it required debugging into the CXF source code to 
> isolate the issue.
