Re: What's the right way to parse a URI in JAX-RS

[Jim Talbut]

I don't think I worded my question very well, this is what I want to do:
    URITemplate userGroupUriTemplate = URITemplate.createTemplate( 
"/project/{projectName}/group/{groupName}" );
    URI relativeUri = baseUri.relativize( targetUri );
    MultivaluedMap< String, String > map = new MetadataMap< String, 
String >();
    boolean matches = userGroupUriTemplate.match( "/" + 
relativeUri.toString(), map );

So that given targetUri = 
"http://localhost:8822/rest/project/Ringo/group/Drummers"; I can get 
project: Ringo and group: Drummers.

I don't know if there is a better way than that, but that does work.
I'd like
a ) to be able to define the path based on class and method (like I can 
with a UriBuilder), to avoid a duplication.
b) to get a single valued map, to avoid faffing with unnecessary (for 
me) Lists.

Any improvements?

Thanks.

Jim

Hi
You can do URIBuilder.fromURI(stringURIvalue).build() which will return URI
and then you can check the components

cheers, Sergey

Hi,

I have a method that receives a collection of objects, each of which has a
unique URI as a member, and I need to parse these URI into their component
parts.
Clearly these URIs are not the URI of the method that is currently running,
which seems to mean that UriInfo isn't any help.
Are there any JAX-RS ways to parse a URI based upon a specific method (like
an anti-UriBuilder), or am I on my own?

Thanks
