I almost forgot to tell you: I have set up nightly buils of JAX-RS 2.2!
All you need to get in touch with the new binaries is to add the Eclipse Foundation’s SNAPSHOT repository to your Maven configuration, e. g.:
<project> <repositories> <repository> <releases> <enabled>false</enabled> </releases> <snapshots> <enabled>true</enabled> </snapshots> <id>repo.eclipse.org</id> <name>Eclipse Snapshots</name> <url>https://repo.eclipse.org/content/repositories/snapshots</url> </repository> </repositories> </project>
Beware of the fact that Oracle forced us to rename a lot of stuff, so you have to refer to the Maven GAV coordinates jakarta.ws.rs:jakarta.ws.rs-api:2.2-SNAPSHOT
and all classes are in the jakarta.ws.rs
package namespace now! Unfortunately Jersey, the former RI of JAX-RS, is still working on their 2.29 release which is JAX-RS 2.1 still, so you won’t be able to actually run anything using this new names. But I am confident that once 2.29 is out, they will eagerly pick up the changed names, so you can (again) try out all the great stuff we have in JAX-RS 2.2.
