Jersey URL forwarding

Question

Inside a Jersey REST method I would like to forward to an another website. How can I achieve that?

@Path(\"/\")
public c         


        

Answer 1

I can't test it right now. But why not...

Step 1. Get access to HttpServletResponse. To do it declare in your service something like:

@Context
HttpServletResponse _currentResponse;

Step 2. make redirect

...
_currentResponse.sendRedirect(redirect2Url);

EDIT

Well, to call forward method you need get to ServletContext. It is can be resolved the same way as response:

@javax.ws.rs.core.Context 
ServletContext _context;

Now _context.forward is available
