I am having trouble getting a very basic implementation of a singleton class off the ground with Jersey 2 (2.7) and only Jersey's built-in HK2 dependency injection. I am running this on Tomcat.
My goal is to create a singleton instance of a support class that will be used by various web service methods. I don't have a strong preference between constructor injection, method injection, and annotating a class member (as I do below).
Here is my to-be-singleton class:
package singletest;
import javax.inject.Singleton;
@Singleton
public class JustOne {
private int secretNumber = 0;
public void hitMe(int input) {
secretNumber += input;
}
@Override
public String toString() {
return String.format("{ \"secretNumber\": %s }", secretNumber);
}
}
Here is my application class:
package singletest;
import javax.ws.rs.ApplicationPath;
import javax.ws.rs.core.Application;
import java.util.HashSet;
import java.util.Set;
@ApplicationPath("/*")
public class MainApplication extends Application {
@Override
public Set<Class<?>> getClasses() {
Set<Class<?>> classes = new HashSet<>();
classes.add(TestResource.class);
return classes;
}
@Override
public Set<Object> getSingletons() {
Set<Object> singletons = new HashSet<>();
singletons.add(new JustOneProvider());
return singletons;
}
}
Here is my Provider/ContextResolver class:
package singletest;
import javax.ws.rs.ext.ContextResolver;
import javax.ws.rs.ext.Provider;
@Provider
public class JustOneProvider implements ContextResolver<JustOne> {
private static JustOne justOne = new JustOne();
@Override
public JustOne getContext(Class<?> type) {
return justOne;
}
}
web.xml:

The resource where I intend to inject the singleton instance of my JustOne class:
package singletest;
import javax.inject.Inject;
import javax.ws.rs.*;
import javax.ws.rs.core.MediaType;
import javax.ws.rs.core.Response;
@Path("/test")
public class TestResource {
@Inject
private JustOne justOne;
@GET
@Consumes(MediaType.TEXT_PLAIN)
@Produces(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)
@Path("/func1/{input}")
public Response func1(@PathParam("input") int input) {
justOne.hitMe(input);
String responseData = justOne.toString();
return Response.ok(responseData).build();
}
}
This warning is raised when the war is deployed/initialized in Jersey:

WARNING: A provider java.lang.Class registered in SERVER runtime does not implement any provider interfaces applicable in the SERVER runtime. Due to constraint configuration problems the provider java.lang.Class will be ignored.
And the error I get when I call this web service:

2. java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: While attempting to resolve the dependencies of singletest.TestResource errors were found

org.apache.tomcat.websocket.server.WsFilter.doFilter(WsFilter.java:52)
So, I get it: hk2 isn't getting enough information to create/bind a JustOne instance and/or find/use my JustOneProvider. I'm sure I'm missing something basic. Any guidance would be appreciated.
bind(JustOne.class).to(JustOne.class).in(Singleton.class);
is the most important part. Without "in(Singleton.class)" multiple instances of JustOne will be created.
