Well, there's a lot of issues here. First up, if you're using Rest, why not use the RestController itself? It handles all of this for you already. If you're just looking for something that *looks* like Rest, you might wanna read the code for it instead, since that will show you a great deal of how it was accomplished and allow you to modify as needed to accomplish your real goal.
