Hi,
I had a similar case but i made all the below three calls go to the same
method instead of going to the different methods. A simple wrapper over
Jersey's ServletContainer was written to accomplish the same.
If you are using JAXB for conversion of object to the appropriate formats,
then you only need to return the object and jersey should automatically
convert it to the appropriate format.
However, if you are not using JAXB(as in my case), i convert the object to
the appropriate format and return a String.

PS. I am pretty much a beginner in Jersey and the above suggestion has just
been based on my experience.
