Possible to have controller handler method that matches if nothing
else matches?
I have a controller with a root "@Path()" annotation. I have controller handler methods in that class with "@Path()" annotations. If I supply a valid URL that matches the controller and one of the handler methods, it works fine.
If I supply a URL that matches at least the root Path for the controller, but not any of the handler methods, it understandably gets a 404 back.
Is there any way I can write a handler method, along with the all-important "@Path" annotation, which will match any request that isn't matched by any of the other handler methods?

Hmm. I'm going to have to do some more testing. I believe I saw one test fail, but that was casually done. I'll set up a semi-automated test.

I've done a quick test, it works for me. Example, given
@Path("/bookstore")
public class BookStore {
@Path{"{catch:.*}"}
@GET
public Book getDefaultBook() {}
@Path{"/books/{id}"}
@GET
public Book getBook(@PathParam("id") Long id) {}
}
a query like '/bookstore/books//' gets handled by getDefaultBook().
What CXF version do you use ? It has to work, may be you have a stricter reg expression than is used in my test. ?
Cheers, Sergey

It catches URLs that are really completely off, but if I specify a URL that simply omits path variables, it still gets a 404.
For instance, I specified "/junk" as my path info, and that matches this. However, if I specified a path info with something like "something//" instead of "something/param/", where I have a '@Path("something/{param}")', then it gets a 404.

CXF allows customizing the selection algorithm [1] but it might useful when several matching root resources or methods are available.
You might want to introduce a resource method with a Path value containing a regular expression, say:
@Path("{id:.*}")
This Path will capture everything but the method will be selected only if no other, more specific matches have been found. Give it a try please.
Cheers, Sergey

Some information is here, but I'll add another example and some
clarifications

Bingo, works perfectly. Is that mechanism described in the wiki? I don't see it. I think I remember seeing this in the JAX-RS spec, but I noticed at one time that I couldn't find some of the features described in the spec in the CXF wiki.
