Chapter 9. Overview of Spring Web annotations and their JAX-RS equivalents

@RestController

There is no equivalent in JAX-RS. Annotating a class with @Path suffices.

@RequestMapping(path="/api")

@Path("/api")

@RequestMapping(consumes="application/json")

@Consumes("application/json")

@RequestMapping(produces="application/json")

@Produces("application/json")

@RequestParam

@QueryParam

@PathVariable

@PathParam

@RequestBody

No equivalent in JAX-RS. Method parameters corresponding to the body of the request are handled in JAX-RS without requiring any annotation.

@RestControllerAdvice

No equivalent in JAX-RS.

@ResponseStatus

No equivalent in JAX-RS.

@ExceptionHandler

No equivalent annotation in JAX-RS. Exceptions are handled by implementing javax.ws.rs.ext.ExceptionMapper.
