UriInfo.getAbsolutePath throws "java.net.URISyntaxException: Illegal character 
in path" when there is an encoded space in the request URI

                 Key: CXF-2652
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CXF-2652
             Project: CXF
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: JAX-RS
    Affects Versions: 2.2.6
         Environment: Used with Spring
            Reporter: Julien Wajsberg


I tried this simple code :

package mypackage;

import javax.ws.rs.GET;
import javax.ws.rs.Path;
import javax.ws.rs.PathParam;
import javax.ws.rs.core.Context;
import javax.ws.rs.core.UriInfo;

@Path("uri")
public class UriService {
    @GET
    @Path("something/{id}")
    public void addSomething(String string, @Context UriInfo uriInfo, 
@PathParam("id") String id) {
        System.out.println("getPath -> " + uriInfo.getPath());
        System.out.println("getBasePath -> " + uriInfo.getBaseUri());
        System.out.println("getAbsolutePath -> " + 
uriInfo.getBaseUri().resolve(uriInfo.getPath(false)));
        System.out.println("getAbsolutePath -> " + uriInfo.getAbsolutePath());
    }
}

With a Spring-based setup and default beans.xml taken from the user guide.

Then we can use a normal browser .

With "http://localhost:9080/Uritest/rest/uri/something/3";, we get in stdout :
getPath -> /uri/something/3
getBasePath -> http://localhost:9080/Uritest/rest
getAbsolutePath -> http://localhost:9080/uri/something/3
getAbsolutePath -> http://localhost:9080/Uritest/rest/uri/something/3

But with "http://localhost:9080/Uritest/rest/uri/something/3 4", we get an 
exception :
java.net.URISyntaxException: Illegal character in path at index 50: 
http://localhost:9080/Uritest/rest/uri/something/3 4

And in stdout :

getPath -> /uri/something/3 4
getBasePath -> http://localhost:9080/Uritest/rest
getAbsolutePath -> http://localhost:9080/uri/something/3%204

NB : in JAX-RS javadoc, it's said that "getAbsolutePath()" is a shortcut to 
uriInfo.getBase().resolve(uriInfo.getPath())", which is plain wrong, because :
1 - getBase doesn't exist, that's getBaseUri
2 -  getPath as returned by CXF begins with a slash ("/") so "resolve" doesn't 
do what we want here.
