public static interface ResourceMethodDispatcher.Provider

Provider interface for creating a resource method dispatcher instances.

TODO describe registration.

A provider will examine the model of the Web resource method and determine if an invoker can be created for that Web resource method.

Multiple providers can specify the support for different Web resource method patterns, ranging from simple patterns (such as void return and input parameters) to complex patterns that take type URI and query arguments and HTTP request headers as typed parameters.
