[resteasy-dev] SPI to add JAX-RS annotations dynamically

[Christian Kaltepoth]

Hi Alessio,

thanks a lot for your reply. Yes, I saw the ResourceBuilder class and it
looks quite interesting. But is there some kind of SPI which allows me to
alter the resource model that RESTEasy creates for the discovered
resources? Something like:

    public interface ResourceModelPostProcessorPlugin {
        void process( ResourceClassBuilder builder );
    }

Best regards

Christian Kaltepoth
