Using RESTful services with JAX-RS/CXF in Tomcat

Question

I'm interested in using Apache's JAX-RS implementation (CXF) in a Tomcat environment. The documentation is pretty clear and straight forward about developing a RESTful service with JAX-RS/CXF. However, I'm not sure how to develop a JAX-RS service within the context of a Tomcat environment.

Does anyone know of a good tutorial on developing JAX-RS/CXF services for Tomcat?

Solution 1

Not exactly a tutorial, but there is nothing special in developing JAX-RS in Tomcat (after all it is based on the servlet specification, which tomcat supports):

http://cxf.apache.org/docs/jaxrs-services-configuration.html

(in particular under the heading Configuring JAX-RS services in container without Spring)
