How to get the target method of this JAX-RS request?

Question

Is there a way to get a java.lang.reflect.Methodmethod (which is annotated using @Path) that will be called for a given HttpServletRequest?

Here is my use case: I am in Java EE Filterand want to know if the method that will be called later will be annotated using other specific annotations.

(I am using RESTEasy 3.0.7)

It's easy if you can use a ContainerRequestFilter instead of a regular servlet filter .

@Provider
public class SomeFilter implements ContainerRequestFilter {

    @Context
    private ResourceInfo resourceInfo;

    @Override
    public void filter(ContainerRequestContext requestContext) throws IOException {
        Method method = resourceInfo.getResourceMethod();
    }

}
