Xavier Coulon commented on JBIDE-10645:
---------------------------------------

Hello Viacheslav,

The workaround works fine, but it's not explained in the spec nor in the current JBoss AS7 online docs, so users may be confused with the warning message they'll get, don't you think ?

> The 'JAX-RS Application' is the top level fragment of the URI Path Templates of the JAX-RS Endpoints. 
> One way to configure it is in the webapp's deployment descriptor, with something like this:
> {code}
> <web-app version="2.4" xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee"
>          xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
>          xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee/web-app_2_4.xsd">
>     <servlet-mapping>
>         <servlet-name>javax.ws.rs.core.Application</servlet-name>
>         <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
>     </servlet-mapping>
> </web-app>
> {code}
> see [JBossAS 7 / JAX-RS docs here|https://docs.jboss.org/author/display/AS7/Java+API+for+RESTful+Web+Services+(JAX-RS)#JavaAPIforRESTfulWebServices%28JAX-RS%29-Packageandbuildtheendpoint]
> Hélas, the web.xml validator reports an error (or a warning) with the following message
> {quote}
> servlet-name references to javax.ws.rs.core.Application that is not a servlet	
> {quote}
>  
> For sure, the validation level could be set to ignore, but could this JAX-RS specific rule be implemented by default ?
