Interface ObjectFactory

public interface ObjectFactory

Implement this interface to instantiate JAX-RS root resource classes and providers yourself and register it by JaxRsApplication.setObjectFactory(ObjectFactory).

When using a ObjectFactory, no JAX-RS constructor dependency injection will be performed, but instance variable and bean setter injection will still be done.
