JAXRS: Multiple service beans problem

[David Castro]

I am having an issue mapping multiple service beans. Only the first bean's
paths seem to be mapped at all.  So something like this would not work for
me, because only authenticate service methods would be available:

  <jaxrs:server id="serviceServer" address="/">
    <jaxrs:serviceBeans>
      <ref bean="authServiceImpl" />
      <ref bean="contactServiceImpl" />
    </jaxrs:serviceBeans>

*Here are the service interfaces:*

public interface AuthenticationService {
    @GET
    @Path("/authenticate/{uid}:{pass}")
    public Response authenticate(@PathParam("uid") String username,
@PathParam("pass") String password);
}

public interface ContactService {
    @GET
    @Path("/contacts")
    public Contacts getContacts();
}

I can't find a solution to this other than creating an uber service
interface that extended all the other interfaces...or potentially creating
new jaxrs:server entries for each and every service.  Thoughts, suggestions?

Not sure if it is related, but also ran into a similar problem, where when I
have two service interfaces like below...where service A and B both have a
common sub-path.  It seems that both /v3/authenticate and /v4/authenticate
are available.  However, /v4/authenticate/validate is not available.  No
sub-path for a method is available in v4 if v3 doesn't have the same path.
If I remove the v3 bean, then both v4 methods are available.

*Take the following from cxf_beans.xml where I define 2 service beans:*

  <jaxrs:server id="serviceServer" address="/">
    <jaxrs:serviceBeans>
      <ref bean="contactServiceImpl3" />
      <ref bean="contactServiceImpl4" />
    </jaxrs:serviceBeans>

*Here are the service interfaces:*

=====

@Path("/v3")
public interface AuthenticationService {
    @GET
    @Path("/authenticate/{uid}:{pass}")
    public Response authenticate(@PathParam("uid") String username,
@PathParam("pass") String password);
}

=====

@Path("/v4")
public interface AuthenticationService {
    @GET
    @Path("/authenticate/{uid}:{pass}")
    public Response authenticate(@PathParam("uid") String username,
@PathParam("pass") String password);

    @GET
    @Path("/authenticate/validate/{token}")
    public Response validate(@PathParam("token") String token);
}
