Help With Rest EJB

[Bob Nedwor]

I think I might be doing something wrong.
I am trying to get the NameService example from http://java.boot.by/ocewsd6-guide/ch04.html to work on Glassfishv3 and I am not sure I am deploying correctly.
I cannot seem to find the code for the NameBean class, so I made up my own.
When I deploy, the server log seems to indicate that everything is going OK, but I am not sure what URLs to try with my curl command.
(I run Glassfish on 8081).

curl http://localhost:8081/restejb
just gives me my prompt back.
Pretty much everything else gives me: HTTP Status 404 The requested resource () is not available.

Thanks to anyone who can help me with this. Here is what I am doing:


$ cat src/NameService.java

import javax.ejb.Stateless;
import javax.ejb.EJB;
import javax.ws.rs.*;

@Path("name")
@Stateless
public class NameService {

    @EJB
    private NameBean nameBean;

    @GET
    @Produces("text/plain")
    public String getHtml() {
        return "Hello " + nameBean.getName();
    }

    @PUT
    @Consumes("text/plain")
    public void put(String content) {
        nameBean.setName(content);
    }
    
}

$ cat src/NameBean.java

 
public class NameBean {

    private String name;
        
    public String getName(){
        
        return name;
        
    }
        
    public void setName(String inName){
        
       name = inName;
        
    }
        
}

$ mkdir WEB-INF
$ mkdir WEB-INF/classes
$ export GL4=/bapps/glassfish3/glassfish/modules
$ javac -cp WEB-INF/classes:$GL4/javax.ejb.jar:$GL4/jersey-core.jar -d WEB-INF/classes src/*.java
$ jar cvf restejb.war WEB-INF
added manifest
adding: WEB-INF/(in = 0) (out= 0)(stored 0%)
adding: WEB-INF/classes/(in = 0) (out= 0)(stored 0%)
adding: WEB-INF/classes/NameBean.class(in = 394) (out= 249)(deflated 36%)
adding: WEB-INF/classes/NameService.class(in = 894) (out= 527)(deflated 41%)
$
$ cp restejb.war /bapps/glassfish3/glassfish/domains/domain1/autodeploy/restejb.war
$

Server log then says:

It seems that at least part of the answer is here http://netbeans.dzone.com/articles/how-to-combine-rest-and-ejb-31 .

My NameBean needs @Singleton and some other things.

More on this later.

Thanks if anyone has any other answers.

Thanks to Milan Kuchtiak for the example previously referenced. I also changed my package from the default (none) to "name" like he did and I also added the ApplicationConfig class like he did (to demonstrate that not even a web.xml is necessary here). I rejarred and re-deployed.

What Milan does not show you is how to call these using curl (in case you do not want to go to the trouble of setting up NetBeans 6.8, etc). Here they are:

curl http://localhost:8081/restejb/resources/application.wadl
curl http://localhost:8081/restejb/resources/name
echo "New Name" > data
curl -T data http://localhost:8081/restejb/resources/name
curl http://localhost:8081/restejb/resources/name
