>                 Key: CLEREZZA-570
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLEREZZA-570
>             Project: Clerezza
>          Issue Type: New Feature
>            Reporter: Henry Story
>            Priority: Major

> I am developing a class for a resource that could take or not take certain parameters.
> @GET def infoPage() : Response = { .. }
> @GET def authenticate(@QueryParam("authreqissuer") relyingPartySrvc: URL ): Response = { ... }
> @GET def authenticate(@QueryParam("authreqissuer") relyingPartySrvc: URL , @QueryParam("pause") pause: Boolean): Response = { ... }
> So I assumed naively - but that may say something about general newbie expectations - that the methods that would match most parameters would be selected.
> It turns out that it is the first method that is called in RootResourceExecutorImpl 
>    final MethodAndConsumedAndProducibleTypes firstAcceptable = acceptableMethods.first();
> This leads to inconsistent and random behavior, as different functions are called for different request of the same URI request.
> So a GET request on https://localhost:8443/srvc/webidp can call all of the above functions. It then furthermore throws exceptions when it does not have the data for a method.
> As I saw these errors thrown I refactored my code a few times, and finally discovered this was a problem in the triaxrs code.
> One could make a list of (attribute annotation pairs) and find out which methods had the most of the attribtes available in the URI.
