I am trying to specify a pre-matching filter that is only associated to some of my API calls, by following what the RESTeasy documentation suggests. Here is what my code looks like:
Name binding:
@NameBinding
public @interface ValidateFoo {}
Resource:
@Path("/foo/bar")
@Produces(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)
public class FooBar {
@GET
@ValidateFoo
public Object doStuff() {
//do stuff
}
@POST
public Object doAnotherStuff() {
//do another stuff
}
}
Filter:
@ValidateFoo
@Provider
@PreMatching
public class FooValidation implements ContainerRequestFilter {
@Override
public void filter(ContainerRequestContext reqContext) throws IOException {
//validate stuff
}
}
Problem is: the FooValidation filter runs before every method call (e.g.: before GETs and POSTs to /foo/bar), not only the ones annotated with @ValidateFoo
(seems a bug to me). If I remove the @Provider
annotation from the filter, it won't run before any call (as expected).
I am seeing this behavior consistently, either using WebLogic or Tomcat. My dependency management is done through Maven, and the RESTeasy version is 3.0-beta-3.
Anyone experiencing/experienced the same behavior? I have seen another user with a similar problem on JBoss forums, with no luck so far.
UPDATE: Still experiencing the same issue with RESTeasy 3.0.1-Final.
I had similar problem. For me the solution was to add following annotation configuration (to @ValidateFoo):
@Target({ ElementType.TYPE, ElementType.METHOD })
@Retention(value = RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME)
@NameBinding
