Jersey always produces 415 status when I use POSTMAN with x-www-urlencoded! What for?

Question

I am trying to learn the basics of Java REST based on the Jax RS specification. I am making a textbook from pluralis, which is not so great. But in any case, I got to the point that I use the Google Chromes mail agent to send form parameters encoded in the URL to my service.

The class that I use for my resource methods is called ActivityResource. Each annotated @GET method works, but not the @POST method.

The path I'm sending is localhost: 8080 // webapi / activity / activity

Regardless of the fact that if I insert a slash before any path parameter, rearrange the annotation headers, or use the old argument "application / x-www-form-urlencoded", I always get rotten HTTP status 415 - Usupported Media Type Response. Does anyone know what I am missing. Is there a missing jar that I need?

@Path ("activity") public class ActivityResource {

private ActivityRepository activityRepository = new ActivityRepositoryStub();


@POST
@Path("activity")
@Consumes(MediaType.APPLICATION_FORM_URLENCODED)
@Produces({MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON, MediaType.APPLICATION_XML})
public Activity createActivityParams(MultivaluedHashMap<String, String> formParams) {

    System.out.println(formParams.getFirst("description"));
    System.out.println(formParams.getFirst("duration"));

    Activity activity = new Activity();
    activity.setDescription(formParams.getFirst("description"));
    activity.setDuration(Integer.parseInt( formParams.getFirst("duration")));

    String id = String.valueOf( activityRepository.findAllActivities().size() );
    activity.setId(id);

    activityRepository.findAllActivities().add(activity);

    return activity;
}

.....My Get methods down here which actually output functioning results

}
