Interface ContextResolver<T>

  • Type Parameters:
    T - type of the context

    public interface ContextResolver<T>
    Contract for a provider that supplies context information to resource classes and other providers. A ContextResolver implementation may be annotated with Produces to restrict the media types for which it will be considered suitable.

    Providers implementing ContextResolver contract must be either programmatically registered in a JAX-RS runtime or must be annotated with @Provider annotation to be automatically discovered by the JAX-RS runtime during a provider scanning phase.
