I would like to know if it's possible to instantiate a bean in Spring using Java based configuration (providing all the Jax-RS annotations, @Path and so on.. ) , and then tell Jersey to use that bean as resource, avoiding Jersey to instantiate a new class.
Edit: if possible I would like to avoid annotating my bean with @Component or @Service like in the answers you linked here (thanks for prompt reaction!)
Thanks in advance Giulio
