Well, unfortunately only under certain condition
See
https://java.net/jira/browse/JAX_RS_SPEC-405
The example in JAX_RS_SPEC-405 indeed did work in 1.1 but no longer in
2.0. I believe Santiago is looking into resolving it.
Now, in
https://java.net/jira/browse/JAX_RS_SPEC-406, nearly identical
case does not work positively - but it is 1.1 spec compliant. However,
given that both 405 & 406 JIRAs deal with nearly identical cases, and
effectively are resolving around the fact that the root resource has no
matching resource methods, IMHO it makes sense to get the examples in
405 & 406 woek in a positive case
Cheers, Sergey
