I'm guessing you don't have a ResourceConfig, since you seem to not be sure how to use it. For one, it is not required. If you do use it, it should be it's own separate class. There you can register the mapper.

public class AppConfig extends ResourceConfig {
    public AppConfig() {
        register(new MyProvider());
    }
}

But you are probably using a web.xml. In which case, you can register the provider, with the following

    MyApplication
    org.glassfish.jersey.servlet.ServletContainer
    
        jersey.config.server.provider.classnames
        
            org.foo.providers.MyProvider
        
    

Have a look at Application Deployment and Runtime Environments for more information on different deployment models. There are a few different ways to deploy applications. You can even mix and match (web.xml and ResourceConfig).
