Store @PathParam values from REST call in a list or array

Question

My function looks like this:

    @PUT
    @Path(\"property/{uuid}/{key}/{value}\")
    @Produces(\"application/xml\")    
    public Map

A workaround:

@Path("/foo/bar/{other: .*}
public Response foo(@PathParam("other") VariableStrings vstrings) {

   String[] splitPath = vstrings.getSplitPath();


}

VariableStrings class:

public class VariableStrings {

   private String[] splitPath;

   public VariableStrings(String unparsedPath) {
     splitPath = unparsedPath.split("/");
   }
}

Path segment sequence to vararg array in JAX-RS / Jersey?

Another example where you map the optional parameter to a Map:

@GET
@ Produces({"application/xml", "application/json", "plain/text"})
@ Path("/location/{locationId}{path:.*}")
public Response getLocation(@PathParam("locationId") int locationId, @PathParam("path") String path) {
    Map < String, String > params = parsePath(path);
    String format = params.get("format");
    if ("xml".equals(format)) {
        String xml = " parsePath(String path) {
    if (path.startsWith("/")) {
        path = path.substring(1);
    }
    String[] pathParts = path.split("/");
    Map < String, String > pathMap = new HashMap < String, String > ();
    for (int i = 0; i < pathParts.length / 2; i++) {
        String key = pathParts[2 * i];
        String value = pathParts[2 * i + 1];
        pathMap.put(key, value);
    }
    return pathMap;
}
