Hi all,
After researching API versioning with Jersey a bit, the only way I see this
happening is through modifying the Accept header and use a special MIME
type, and then if the MIME type ends with +xml or +json it's smart enough
to understand what serializer to use.
Now, what if, because of client restrictions, I can't handle custom MIME
types and such, and instead I'd like to use another recommended versioning
pattern which would be adding a header to the HTTP request called version,
and place the version number there.
That way I could do something like
@GET("/myObj")
@Consumes(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)
@Header("version", "1.0")
public JsonResponse myV1method() {}
@GET("myObj")
@Consumes(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)
@Header("version", "2.0")
public JsonResponse myV2method() {}
Currently, how could I choose which jersey annotated java method to use
depending on what the version header value is?
Thanks,
Raul
