jersey security and session management

Question

Is there a way to get session management or security programatically in Jersey, e.g. web-application session management? Or are transactions, sessions, and security all han

Answer 1

You can user @path to group the services under single name space. example .

@Path("/helloworld")
public class HelloWorld {

    @GET
    @Produces("text/plain")
    public String hello() {


        return "";


    }
}

Instead of @Path("/helloworld") use
@Path("admin/helloworld") to expose you class as rest and bind filter on "admin/"
in web.xml as below.


            jersey-serlvet
            com.sun.jersey.spi.container.servlet.ServletContainer
            
                com.sun.jersey.config.property.packages
                /
            
            1
        
        
            jersey-serlvet
            /rest/*
        
         
            myfilter
            com.Filterclass
        
        
            myfilter
            /rest/admin/*
         

    public class Filterclass implements Filter {
       public void doFilter(ServletRequest request, ServletResponse response,
                FilterChain chain)
                throws IOException, ServletException {
                  try{
                       chain.doFilter(request, response);
                    }catch(Exception e){
                   e.printStackTrace();
                       }
          }
    }

You can validate you session in this filter class.
