Hello,
many request has been made for a possibility of tracking resource/path
matching process. Jersey now offers a way to do this - server side
filter, which is aimed to debugging stage of development.
This filter logs matching process of every request. Output looks like
following for every match level (it actually differs; depend on whats
being matched - Resource method, Sub-Resource method or Sub-Resource
locator).
====================

Locator matched.
Path: sub01
Matched Result: java.util.regex.Matcher[pattern=/sub01(/.*)?
region=0,20 lastmatch=/sub01/subsub01/lala]
Resource: com.sun.jersey.samples.helloworld.resources.Path02
Method: public com.sun.jersey.samples.helloworld.resources.Path02_sub01
com.sun.jersey.samples.helloworld.resources.Path02.Sub01()|#]
====================
Filter is present in 1.1.3-ea-SNAPSHOT version of Jersey. If you want to
enable this filter in your application, all you have to do is add init
param to web.xml:
<init-param>
<param-name>com.sun.jersey.spi.container.ResourceFilters</param-name>
<param-value>com.sun.jersey.api.container.filter.ResourceDebuggingFilterFactory</param-value>
</init-param>
Feel free to reply into this thread if you have any comments /
suggestions about this.
