Field Detail

FILTER_STATIC_CONTENT_REGEX

public static final String FILTER_STATIC_CONTENT_REGEX

If set the regular expression is used to match an incoming servlet path URI to some web page content such as static resources or JSPs to be handled by the underlying servlet engine.

The property is only applicable when Jersey servlet container is configured to run as a Filter, otherwise this property will be ignored. If a servlet path matches this regular expression then the filter forwards the request to the next filter in the filter chain so that the underlying servlet engine can process the request otherwise Jersey will process the request. For example if you set the value to /(image|css)/.* then you can serve up images and CSS files for your Implicit or Explicit Views while still processing your JAX-RS resources.

The type of this property must be a String and the value must be a valid regular expression.

A default value is not set.

The name of the configuration property is "jersey.config.servlet.filter.staticContentRegex".

Constant Field Values

FILTER_FORWARD_ON_404

public static final String FILTER_FORWARD_ON_404

If set to true and a 404 response with no entity body is returned from either the runtime or the application then the runtime forwards the request to the next filter in the filter chain. This enables another filter or the underlying servlet engine to process the request. Before the request is forwarded the response status is set to 200.

This property is an alternative to setting a static content regular expression and requires less configuration. However, application code, such as methods corresponding to sub-resource locators, may be invoked when this feature is enabled.

The property is only applicable when Jersey servlet container is configured to run as a Filter, otherwise this property will be ignored.

Application code, such as methods corresponding to sub-resource locators may be invoked when this feature is enabled.

The default value is false.

The name of the configuration property is "jersey.config.servlet.filter.forwardOn404".

FILTER_CONTEXT_PATH

public static final String FILTER_CONTEXT_PATH

If set, indicates the URL pattern of the Jersey servlet filter context path.

If the URL pattern of a filter is set to a base path and a wildcard, such as "/base/*", then this property can be used to declare a filter context path that behaves in the same manner as the Servlet context path for determining the base URI of the application. (Note that with the Servlet 2.x API it is not possible to determine the URL pattern without parsing the web.xml, hence why this property is necessary.)

The property is only applicable when Jersey servlet container is configured to run as a Filter, otherwise this property will be ignored.

The value of the property may consist of one or more path segments separate by '/'.

A default value is not set.

The name of the configuration property is "jersey.config.servlet.filter.contextPath".

Constant Field Values

JAXRS_APPLICATION_CLASS

public static final String JAXRS_APPLICATION_CLASS

Application configuration initialization property whose value is a fully qualified class name of a class that implements Application.

A default value is not set.

The name of the configuration property is "javax.ws.rs.Application".

Constant Field Values

PROVIDER_WEB_APP

public static final String PROVIDER_WEB_APP

Indicates that Jersey should scan the whole web app for application-specific resources and providers. If the property is present and the value is not false, the whole web app will be scanned for JAX-RS root resources (annotated with @Path) and providers (annotated with @Provider).

The property value MUST be an instance of String. The allowed values are true and false.

A default value is not set.

The name of the configuration property is "jersey.config.servlet.provider.webapp".
