        register(CORSConfigurationFilter.class);
        //The jackson feature and provider is used for object serialization
        //between client and server objects in to a json
        register(JacksonFeature.class);
        register(JacksonProvider.class);
        //Glassfish multipart file uploader feature
        register(MultiPartFeature.class);
        //inject and registered all resources class using the package
        //not to be tempered with
        packages("com.flexisaf.safhrms.client.resources");
        register(RESTRequestFilter.class);
    }
