Andriy Redko commented on CXF-4199:
-----------------------------------
Hi Sergey,
Thanks a lot for the feedback. You are very right, there is quite a potential
out there. If you don't mind, I would prefer not to do @Path resources
discovery as part of this issue and limit the scope to providers only (just to
stay with the JSR and this issue title). But I would happily tackle this
feature as well (just under another JIRA issue so we can keep it under control
as @Path is used much broadly). I will address empty base-packages to see what
we discover and what the impact is (aside from being taken long time).
The question I want to ask though is: many people (including myself) don't used
XML-based configuration for years now, mostly RuntimeDelegate /
JAXRSServerFactoryBean directly. With the work we have done so far, the
auto-discovery won't be possible in this cases. Do you see any benefit
addressing it as well?
What do you think?
Thanks.
Andriy
