You have hit upon a related issue. I would like to understand how to use Jersey with Spring and with other IOC approaches. I need to go back and make a copy of my code which does not use Spring and figure out how to make everything work. In particular, I want to know what other IOC approaches work with Jersey, both in terms of things like my filters and in terms of resource objects that are instantiated by Jersey but which need to have additional objects injected for use.
So, that leads me to two things:
1) Is there an example of a singleton spring bean in the sample code I can learn from? (I tried doing this once in the past and had some trouble, so I punted and took a different route at the time)
2) Can you please tell me the Jersey-specific way to do the dependency injection?
Thanks!
Brian
