使用Maven Eclipse和Tomcat Server设置RESTFull Web应用程序项目

Question

So I have been trying to create a new RESTfull web application project in eclipse that will use the Jersey Jax-rs framework and work on a tomcat server. So far i have been able to create the project in eclipse and add the jersey dependencies , but I am missing files like web.xml so I am unsure weather I am doing this properly.

Would somebody with experience in this field that perhaps does this often give me a step by step walkthrough of the steps involved to see what I am missing as im sure its not complicated im just brand new to this so its all confusing .

I want to use jersey and the jersey test framework.

Thanks in advance Chris

This is the tutorial I used - and this is quite simple.

and let us know if anything is not working.

When you create a "Dynamic Web Project" in "Eclipse IDE for Java EE developers" , it will make a basic web.xml for you - so just add the <servlet> and <servlet-mapping> tags as needed
