A meta-provider for dynamic registration of post-matching providers
during an application setup at deployment time.
Dynamic feature is used by the runtime to register providers that shall be applied
to a particular resource class and method and overrides any annotation-based binding
definitions defined on any registered resource filter or interceptor instance.
Providers implementing this interface MAY be annotated with @Provider
annotation in order to be discovered by the runtime when scanning for resources and providers. This provider types is supported only as part of the Server API.

public interface DynamicFeature {
A callback method called by the runtime during the application deployment to register provider instances or classes in a runtime configuration
scope of a particular
resource or sub-resource method
; i.e. the providers that should be dynamically bound to the method.
The registered provider instances or classes are expected to be implementing one
or more of the following interfaces:
A provider instance or class that does not implement any of the interfaces above may be ignored by the API implementation. In such case a warning
message must be logged. API implementations may support additional provider contracts that can be registered using a dynamic feature concept.
Conceptually, this callback method is called during a
resource or sub-resource method
discovery phase (typically once per each discovered resource or sub-resource method) to register provider instances or classes in a configuration
scope of each particular method identified by the supplied resource information
. The responsibility of the feature is to properly update the supplied configuration
context.
Params: - resourceInfo – resource class and method information.
- context – configurable resource or sub-resource method-level runtime context associated with the
resourceInfo
in which the feature
