Friso,
We had a similar problem on our project, Candlepin [1]. We have a number of
items that end up being Quartz jobs that get kicked off via a POST call.
Our POST methods return a JobDetail object [2], and we have an Interceptor
[3] that on postProcess looks at the returned entity, if it's a JobDetail
it returns HTTP.ACCEPTED [4] (202) and a status object that has a url to
get status. The HTTP 202 code tells the client we got the request but it's
not done yet.
So far we've had pretty good success with this paradigm. I know we looked
at the async feature in resteasy but I don't remember why we didn't end up
using it.
Sincerely,
jesus
