I am trying to learn jersey by creating a small RESTful service. I want to use the Filters for specific reasons(Like I want to use the ContainerResponseFilter for CORS headers to allow cross domain requests). However, I am just not able to get these filters intercept my call. I have seen all the posts for this problem and most of them say to register with annotation provider or in web.xml.
I have tried registering the files in web.xml as well as giving a @Provider
annotation for the container
Here is my web.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!-- This web.xml file is not required when using Servlet 3.0 container,
see implementation details http://jersey.java.net/nonav/documentation/latest/jax-rs.html#d4e194 -->
<web-app version="2.5" xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_2_5.xsd">

Here are my Filters:
package com.rest.example.cors;
import javax.ws.rs.ext.Provider;
import com.sun.jersey.spi.container.ContainerRequest;
import com.sun.jersey.spi.container.ContainerResponse;
import com.sun.jersey.spi.container.ContainerResponseFilter;
@Provider
public class CORSFilter implements ContainerResponseFilter {
public ContainerResponse filter(ContainerRequest creq,
ContainerResponse cresp) {
cresp.getHttpHeaders().putSingle("Access-Control-Allow-Origin", "*");
cresp.getHttpHeaders().putSingle("Access-Control-Allow-Credentials", "true");
cresp.getHttpHeaders().putSingle("Access-Control-Allow-Methods", "GET, POST, DELETE, PUT, OPTIONS, HEAD");
cresp.getHttpHeaders().putSingle("Access-Control-Allow-Headers", "Content-Type, Accept, X-Requested-With");
return cresp;
}
}
package com.rest.example.cors;
import javax.ws.rs.ext.Provider;
import com.sun.jersey.spi.container.ContainerRequest;
import com.sun.jersey.spi.container.ContainerRequestFilter;
@Provider
public class RequestFilter implements ContainerRequestFilter {
public ContainerRequest filter(ContainerRequest request) {
System.out.println("request filter");
return request;
}
}
