We have an application that uses the @ApplicationPath("/") annotation. The annotated class implements the "getSingletons()" method and one of those singletons has a @Path("/") annotation. The idea is having that resource available in the context root, so if the application is deployed to the context root "/api" we want that resource to be available when the user types the "http://whatever/api" URL. Unfortunately this does not work, it only works if the trailing slash is included: "http://whatever/api/".

I think that the cause is in the "extractUriInfo" of the "org.jboss.resteasy.plugins.server.servlet.ServletUtil" class.

The following patch apparently resolves the problem:
