/**
 * This package defines a high-level (proxy-based) client API.
 * The API enables utilization of the server-side JAX-RS annotations
 * to describe the server-side resources and dynamically generate client-side
 * proxy objects for them.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * Consider a server which exposes a resource at http://localhost:8080. The resource
 * can be described by the following interface:
 * </p>
 *
 * <pre>
 * &#064;Path("myresource")
 * public interface MyResourceIfc {
 *     &#064;GET
 *     &#064;Produces("text/plain")
 *     String get();
 *
 *     &#064;POST
 *     &#064;Consumes("application/xml")
 *     &#064;Produces("application/xml")
 *     MyBean postEcho(MyBean bean);
 *
 *     &#064;Path("{id}")
 *     &#064;GET
 *     &#064;Produces("text/plain")
 *     String getById(&#064;PathParam("id") String id);
 * }
 * </pre>
 *
 * <p>
 * You can use <a href="WebResourceFactory.html">WebResourceFactory</a> class defined
 * in this package to access the server-side resource using this interface.
 * Here is an example:
 * </p>
 *
 * <pre>
 * Client c = ClientFactory.newClient();
 * MyResourceIfc resource = WebResourceFactory.newWebResource(MyResourceIfc.class, c, "http://localhost:8080/");
 *
 * String responseFromGet = resource.get();
 * MyBean responseFromPost = resource.postEcho(myBeanInstance);
 * String responseFromGetById = resource.getById("abc");
 * </pre>
