Java RESTful Services 2.1

This feature enables support for Java API for RESTful Web Services v2.1. JAX-RS annotations can be used to define web service clients and endpoints that comply with the REST architectural style. Endpoints are accessed through a common interface that is based on the HTTP standard methods.

To install the feature from the command line, type:
bin/installUtility install jaxrs-2.1
If you are installing into 8.5.5.5 or earlier and the feature supports that version, use the featureManager command, for example:
bin/featureManager install jaxrs-2.1 --when-file-exists=ignore

To use the feature at runtime add the following to your server.xml file
<featureManager>
  <feature>jaxrs-2.1</feature>
</featureManager>
