Hi All - Anyone have an elegant way to get a Jersey 2.7 app working on
weblogic 12.1.2? Below is what I added to my weblogic.xml but dang does
this approach seem brittle. Although the list seems short, it was a painful
process that took hours of inspecting TONs of different exceptions to come
up with that list.
And it's odd they call it "prefer-application-packages", i didn't find that
very accurate. It's more like "only-look-in-application-for-packages",
because if you put java.* in one of those your app will fail with class not
found exception for java.lang.Object.
