We provide detail answere based on the user answer user2629427. we checked this on windows 7.
Requirement: (brackets indicate version which this example is tested)
- tomcat (8 zip version)
- jersey (2.x)
Unzip the tomcat & create a below folder structure in tomcat's 'webapps' folder (folder names are case sensitive).
abc
|___ WEB-INF
|____ classes
|____ lib
Put 'Hello.java' and 'MyApplication.java' into 'classes' folder and 'web.xml' into 'WEB-INF' folder.
web.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<web-app xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xmlns="http://xmlns.jcp.org/xml/ns/javaee"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://xmlns.jcp.org/xml/ns/javaee http://xmlns.jcp.org/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_3_1.xsd"
id="WebApp_ID"
version="3.1">
<servlet>
<servlet-name>rest</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>org.glassfish.jersey.servlet.ServletContainer</servlet-class>
<init-param>
<param-name>javax.ws.rs.Application</param-name>
<param-value>com.king.MyApplication</param-value>
</init-param>
<load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>rest</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/rest/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
</web-app>
Myapplication.java
package com.king;
import org.glassfish.jersey.server.ResourceConfig;
public class MyApplication extends ResourceConfig {
public MyApplication() {
packages("com.king");
}
}
Hello.java
package com.king;
import javax.ws.rs.GET;
import javax.ws.rs.Path;
import javax.ws.rs.Produces;
import javax.ws.rs.core.MediaType;
@Path("/hello")
public class Hello {
@GET
@Produces(MediaType.TEXT_PLAIN)
public String sayPlainTextHello() {
return "Hello Jersey";
}
// This method is called if XML is request
@GET
@Produces(MediaType.TEXT_XML)
public String sayXMLHello() {
return "<?xml version=\"1.0\"?><hello>Hello Jersey</hello>";
}
// This method is called if HTML is request
@GET
@Produces(MediaType.TEXT_HTML)
public String sayHtmlHello() {
return "<html><title>Hi Jersey</title><body><h1>Hello Jersey this is laksys</body></h1></html>";
}
}
Unzip jersey and copy all jar files from api, ext, and lib (not folders) into your apps 'lib' folder.
Now compile the two java files using following command
D:\apache-tc-8\webapps\abc\WEB-INF\classes>javac -d . -cp ..\lib\javax.ws.rs-api-2.0.1.jar;..\lib\jersey-server.jar;..\l ib\jersey-common.jar *.java
Next run the tomcat server
D:\apache-tc-8\bin>startup
In browser address bar type this: http://localhost:8080/abc/rest/hello
