RESTEasy / JAX-RS spec versions?

I know that RESTEasy 3.x uses JAX-RS 2.0. Which versions of RESTEasy correspond to JAX-RS 1.0, 1.1 and 1.1.1?

According to Bill's blog (Bill Burke is one of the main RESTEasy creators):

  • RESTEasy 3.x is JAXRS 2.0,
  • RESTEasy 2.x is JAXRS 1.1,
  • RESTEasy 1.x is JAXRS 1.0.

There is no JAXRS 1.1.1 specification as per JSR 311, though surprisingly you can find JAXRS 1.1.1 API with updates to JAXRS 1.1. API.

While Jersey uses javax.ws.rs artifacts as dependency (so you can know the JAX-RS version by the dependencies), RESTEasy repacks JAX-RS classes into their own JARs.

Both RESTEasy 1.x and 2.x implement the JAX-RS 1.x specification. The JAX-RS 2.x specification is only mentioned in RESTEasy 3.x documentation.
