Hi,

What's the easiest way to construct the URI of a sub-resource? For example,
say I have:

/books/{id}/name

@Path("books")
class BooksResource
{
  @Path("{id}")
  public BookResource getBook(...)
  {}
}

class BookResource
{
  @Path("name")
  public BookNameResource getName(...)
  {}
}

class BookNameResource
{
  public BookNameResource(Book book)
  {}

  @GET
  public String getBookName()
  {
    // I am here
  }
}

The only way I know of getting the URI inside BookNameResource.getBookName()
is as follows:
UriBuilder.fromResource(BooksResource.class).path(String.valueOf(book.getId())).path("name").build();

This is obviously quite long and error-prone. Is there an easier way?

Thank you,
Gili
