Interceptor | org.apache.wink.server.handlers.HandlersFactory example

[Frank Langel <fr...@frankjlangel.com>]

Hi Apache Wink team,

I would like to execute some code just before the REST method is called
1. The code would access Http header parameters
2. I want to bind some information onto the thread that executes the REST
method using ThreadLocal
Apache Wink is kind of old (latest post 2010)  and documentation hard to
find
1. Has anyone build an interceptor similar to the one described
2. Has anyone experience with
org.apache.wink.server.handlers.HandlersFactory ? Can I use it for this
purpose?
Thanks a lot in advance
Frank

Hi Frank

We have been using WebSphere 8.5 for some time now. It uses Wink as the
implementation for JAX-RS.

You should have no problem creating CDI Interceptors and applying them to
methods in the resource class. We have done that for several use-cases.
Instead of using TLS we use a @RequestScoped bean to pass data around and
make it available to the executing thread.

The problem with using the HandlersFactory is that the WINK infrastructure
uses new on the class which in turn makes it not CDI managed.
We then use a similar aproach to the one in DeltaSpike to create and return
@ApplicationScoped WINK handlers.

Regards
LF
