Yeah, you are right.
It should be achievable by using reqexes, but I've tested this:
@GET
@Path("{people}")
public String getPeople(@PathParam("people") String people,
@QueryParam("location") String location) {
if(location == null) {
return location;
} else {
return people;
}
}
and looks like it does what you need. location param here can be null
("?location" not present) or "" (empty string), thus you are able to
decide what to return (you are using same return data type for both
methods in you example so that shouldn't be a problem..
Let me know if this works for you.
