How to get ServeletConfig in Jersey Provider?

Question

So I have a Jersey REST service and I need to get access to a ServletConfig so that I can pull a param out of the web.xml. I can use @Context to wire one in but I don't think it will get me the params I need. Only the ones in the ServletContext.

Any ideas? I'm new to Jersey and this Provider isn't a Servelet. Perhaps I should start with trying to retrieve the servelet?

Answer 1

@Context: annotation can be used to inject the following classes

1. HttpServletRequest

2. HttpServletResponse

3. ServletContext

4. ServletConfig

5. WebConfig.

onto a root resource, provider and Application classes.
