[Resteasy-developers] PathSegment issues

[David K. <Dav...@Ga...>]

I am trying to use PathSegment to receive "an arbitrary set of name-value pairs embedded in a uri path segment". I am following this documentation:

http://docs.jboss.org/resteasy/docs/2.3.5.Final/userguide/html_single/#_PathParam_and_PathSegment

The endpoint in the example is defined as
@GET
@Path("/book/{id}")
public String getBook(@PathParam("id") PathSegment id) {...}

And the given url is
GET http://host.com/library/book;name=EJB 3.0;author=Bill Burke

The problem is that this url format doesn't work for us (404, the endpoint is not found). To make it work we had to include the / and a placeholder like so:
GET http://host.com/library/book/id;name=EJB 3.0;author=Bill Burke

Is the documentation correct and we are misusing PathSegment or is the documentation incorrect?


Thanks,

Dk
