I'm trying to make a legacy web java application that is bundled inside an EAR and that was written for JBoss 7 to work on Glassfish 4.1. The application is not built with maven or gradle (so please do not post answers about maven dependencies, and I can not mavenize or gradient > this application at the moment). Its dependencies are just a bunch of JARs located in a lib folder.
My problem is that some JAX-RS methods have parameters annotated with org.jboss.resteasy.annotations.Form . But the application declares no dependency on the RestEasy packages, so I think they were somewhere inside JBoss or maybe on some endorsed classpath. I do not have access to the original JBoss, and you can not look there and see what it was like.
When you remove the methods that have the parameters written with @Form and deploy them, the JAX-RS part works. However, these methods are very important to the application and can not be removed.
I've tried adding the following JARs:
-
resteasy-jaxrs-3.0.13.Final.jar -
resteasy-atom-provider-3.0.13.Final.jar -
resteasy-cdi-3.0.13.Final.jar -
resteasy-crypto-3.0.13.Final.jar -
resteasy-jackson2-provider-3.0.13.Final.jar -
resteasy-jaxb-provider-3.0.13.Final.jar -
resteasy-jaxrs-3.0.13.Final.jar -
resteasy-jsapi-3.0.13.Final.jar -
resteasy-multipart-provider-3.0.13.Final.jar -
resteasy-servlet-initializer-3.0.13.Final.jar -
async-http-servlet-3.0-3.0.13.Final.jar
The best I've achieved so far is this:

What dependencies may be missing? I still can not create a minimal, complete, and verifiable example, but I plan to work on it if no one knows the answer.
By the way, I do not know if it's important, but anyway: The application was built in Eclipse (I do not know which version). I'm now using Netbeans 8.0.2.
If this matters, the JAX-RS controllers look like this (note that this is also an EJB):
@Stateless
@LocalBean
@Path("/foo")
public class FooController {
@PUT
@Path("/bar")
public Response someMethod(@Form SomeBean bean, @CookieParam("blahblah") String someCookieValue) throws SomeBusinessException {
// ...
}
}
