It's finally working, all thanks to Sergey :-)
Basically, the problem comes from the proxification of EMF, which
prevents CXF from finding the fields to play with. Sergey's solution,
which works nicely on my project, is as follows:
1) define an interface:
public interface IContext {
@Context
public void setUriInfo(UriInfo ui);
}
2) let the base resource class implement this interface, for me I have:
class WebStore implements IContext {
protected UriInfo uriInfo;
public void setUriInfo(UriInfo ui) {
this.uriInfo = ui;
}
}
3) Enjoy!
Thanks.
