PROBLEM SUMMARY

USERS AFFECTED:
 All users of IBM WebSphere Application
Server Liberty Core

PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
IllegalArgumentException when calling
rest method annotated @Path in a
class not annotated @Path

RECOMMENDATION:
None

You will see an error like this when trying to invoke a REST
method annotated @Path when the class is not annotated @Path
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: RESTEASY003135: Class must
be annotated with @Path to invoke path(Class)
at
org.jboss.resteasy.specimpl.ResteasyUriBuilderImpl.path(Resteasy
UriBuilderImpl.java:400)
at
io.openliberty.microprofile.telemetry.internal.rest.TelemetryCon

inerFilter.java:179)
at
io.openliberty.microprofile.telemetry.internal.rest.TelemetryCon
tainerFilter$HttpServerAttributesGetterImpl.route(TelemetryConta
inerFilter.java:159)

PROBLEM CONCLUSION:
We have fixed annotatoin processing so that methods annotated   
@Path will work correctly.                                      
                                                                
The fix for this APAR is targeted for inclusion in fix pack     
23.0.0.4. For more information, see 'Recommended Updates for
