In my earlier post i described what we did in Jersey version 2.16 in order to make Jersey client work on Android.The whole idea was that after separating JAXB providers out from the Jersey core module, things would just work out of the box.Unfortunately, it turned out the JAXB provider separation was not enough. Basic things worked (see my original post for a test case application), but Jersey was still trying to pull in some types not available in Android environment. Harish...

Introduction At the time of this writing, Java SE support is being discussed as one of important additions to CDI 2.0 specification. Existing CDI implementations brought this feature already, only container bootstrapping has not yet been standardized.

A list of Android supported Java packages is available here and the javax.xml.stream package is missing there.Current Jersey snapshot version introduces a new JAX-B module, so that all JAXB-B Jersey client...
