Actually, you should try to inject ResourceInfo into your custom request filter. I have tried it with RESTEasy and it works there. The advantage is that you code against the JSR interfaces and not the Jersey implementation.

public class MyFilter implements ContainerRequestFilter
{
    @Context
    private ResourceInfo resourceInfo;

    @Override
    public void filter(ContainerRequestContext requestContext)
            throws IOException
    {
        Method theMethod = resourceInfo.getResourceMethod();
        return;
    }
}
