RESTEasy in a Foundation As with other projects, like WildFly, RESTEasy has been looking at moving to a vendor-neutral software foundation. Our hope is that by doing this we can further expand our community, improve our openness and transparency, refresh our governance model, and encourage more participation by contributors not affiliated with Red Hat. As of recently we've moved some projects out of the default RESTEasy repository into their own repository. This gives us the ability to... James R. Perkins • February 19, 2025 Read More

That is, an implementation of java.util.List is considered to be an ordered sequence and is translated... Ron Sigal • February 14, 2025 Read More

Using WildFly Glow to provision a WildFly server for a RESTEasy based project Recently I created a sample project showing the usage of the feature for deploying a RESTEasy-based sample project^sample-project. The project contains a minimal REST based service and a test case, and it uses the maven-wildfly-plugin to produce a provisioned WildFly server for the integration testing. The maven-wildfly-plugin has integrated WildFly Glow^glow since 5.0.0.Alpha1^glow-integration. I have created the PR to the sample project... Wei Nan Li • January 31, 2024 Read More
resteasy-grpc: Handling arrays Release 1.0.0.Alpha5 of resteasy-grpc has a new feature for handling arbitrary arrays. Although protobuf comes with a representation of one dimension arrays, e.g. message ints { repeated int64 is = 1; } represents an array int[], there is no built-in way of handling multidimensional arrays like int[][], so we have to do it explicitly. The mechanism has two parts: arrays.proto, which defines dev_resteasy_grpc_arrays___ArrayHolder, and dev.resteasy.grpc.arrays.ArrayUtility in grpc... Ron Sigal • January 23, 2024 Read More
