Hi,
Excuse me for the late reply. Please follow my inline comments.
This is a deployment error.
I didn't get this. You mean the way I deploy the app or any Jersey build
error?

Yeah, I can guess this behavior. But I m clueless as when accessing the
parent resource (/parent) also I m getting this conflict. I suppose parent
resource will not look into child resource. Isn't it?
just quoting part of my original mail:

You need to do this:

Yeah, I tried this. But the child method is returning incompatible object
type with the parent method return type (as Java only allows same or
co-variant return types), I m required to change the name (but that
difference was not shown in this example; I just made the example simple to
demonstrate the behavior)
Thanks again.
