Hi all,
I got some off-line help from Sergey. The trick is to have two methods:
@GET
@Path("/users/{name}/")
User getUser(@PathParam("name") String name) {
return this.userList.get(name);
}
@Path("/users/{name}/")
User getUserAsSub(@PathParam("name") String name) {
return this.userList.get(name);
}
Basically the first one would allow GET User objects, and the second
method would allow delegation into whatever methods "User" class would
provide.
Thanks, Sergey!
