JAX-RS resource path question

[Kiren Pillay]

Hi All,

We have a project where the customer really doesn't want to go the full
REST route. We are basically migrating a Corba IDL interface with 100+
functions over to web services and they want a generic URL to send requests
through to.

For the new implementation, I want to implement the following scheme:

/rest/function/function1?params=..
/rest/function/functionN?params=..

This way each function can be mapped directly to the the servicing
component, where each component is in a different class. . However from
what I'm seeing, if the root resource is "function" for example, the
resource component servicing the request may not be in a different
implementing class. When I call the URL in the second function, I get "No
operation matching request path "/RestTest/rest/function/functionN" Is this
the expected behaviour?

I know I'm fighting against the way JAX-RS was meant to be used, but is
there a way the above scheme can be made to work?

Regards
Kiren
