Difference com.sun.jersey and org.glassfish.jersey

Question

What is the difference between com.sun.jersey and org.glassfish.jersey?

Currently I have my REST service working on com.sun.jersey and I want to write tests, but I can't find a good tutorial for this (nothing seems to work). However, I can find good documentation about the org.glassfish.jersey tests.

Solution

The only difference between com.sun.jersey and org.glassfish.jersey is that the package name was changed because Jersey team is now part of another organization (Glassfish). Versions below 2 use package com.sun.jersey, versions above 2 use org.glassfish.jersey. And yes, there are some differences between 1.x and 2.x.

Jersey 2.0 provides support for Java SE HTTP Server, Grizzly 2 HTTP server, Servlet 2.5 or higher containers as well as OSGi containers on the server side and HTTPURLConnection-based or Grizzly asynchronous client transport connectors. To leverage JAX-RS/Jersey server-side async features in a Servlet container, you need a container that supports Servlet 3.0 at least. Jersey supports asynchronous resource invocations on Grizzly 2 HTTP server too. (Ref - marek.potociar.net/2013/06/13/…)

For me the big difference is that com.sun.jersey works and org.glassfish.jersey doesn't. lol
