Yeah, we had a significant discussion about this on the JSR mail list.
The servlet specification makes no distinction between
www-form-urlencoded parameters and URI parameters. This is not the case
in JAX-RS. @QueryParam only works with URI parameters (/foo?param=value).
The only way to get at form params is to use a MultivaluedMap as your
request representation.
@POST
public void post(MultivaluedMap<String, String> form) {...}
We had discussed introducing a @FormParam annotation, but I don't think
an agreement had been reached. If you think things need to be changed,
place voice your opinion on users_at_jsr311.dev.java.net (in copy).
