Create Hello World with RESTful web service and Jersey
- by Harry Pham
I follow tutorial here on how to create web service using RESTful web service and Jersey and I get kind of stuck. The code is from HelloWorld3 in the tutorial I linked above. Here is the code. I use Netbean6.8 + glassfish v3
RESTGreeting.java create using JAXB. This class represents the HTML message in Java
package com.sun.rest;
import javax.xml.bind.annotation.XmlRootElement;
import javax.xml.bind.annotation.XmlElement;
@XmlRootElement(name = "restgreeting")
public class RESTGreeting {
private String message;
private String name;
/**
* Creates new instance of Greeting
*/
public RESTGreeting() {
}
/* Create new instance of Greeting
* with parameters message and name
*/
public RESTGreeting(
String message,
String name) {
this.message = message;
this.name = name;
}
/** Getter for message
* return value for message
*
*/
@XmlElement
public String getMessage() {
return message;
}
public void setMessage(String message) {
this.message = message;
}
/* Getter for name
* return name
*/
@XmlElement
public String getName() {
return name;
}
public void setName(String name) {
this.name = name;
}
}
HelloGreetingService.java creates a RESTful web service that returns an HTML message
package com.sun.rest;
import javax.ws.rs.core.Context;
import javax.ws.rs.core.UriInfo;
import javax.ws.rs.Consumes;
import javax.ws.rs.PUT;
import javax.ws.rs.Path;
import javax.ws.rs.GET;
import javax.ws.rs.Produces;
import javax.ws.rs.QueryParam;
@Path("helloGreeting")
public class HelloGreetingService {
@Context
private UriInfo context;
/** Creates a new instance of HelloGreetingService */
public HelloGreetingService() {
}
/**
* Retrieves representation of an instance of com.sun.rest.HelloGreetingService
* @return an instance of java.lang.String
*/
@GET
@Produces("text/html")
public RESTGreeting getHtml(@QueryParam("name")
String name) {
return new RESTGreeting(
getGreeting(),
name);
}
private String getGreeting() {
return "Hello ";
}
/**
* PUT method for updating or creating an instance of HelloGreetingService
* @param content representation for the resource
* @return an HTTP response with content of the updated or created resource.
*/
@PUT
@Consumes("text/html")
public void putHtml(String content) {
}
}
However when i deploy it on Glassfish, and run it. It generate an exception. I try to debug using netbean 6.8, and figure out that this line return new RESTGreeting(getGreeting(), name); in HelloGreetingService.java cause the exception. But not sure why. Here is the stacktrace
