title: calling Restful Service from Java
body: <p>Here I am not creating a RESTful service indeed I have to call an external Restful service from my java code. Currently I am implementing this using Apache HttpClient.
  The response that I get from the web service is in XML format.
  I need to extract the data from XML and put them on Java objects.
  Rather than using SAX parser, I heard that we can use JAX-RS and JERSEY which automatically maps the xml tags to corresponding java objects.</p>
  
  <p>I have being looking through but unable to find a source to get started.
  I did look at existing links 
  <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3262202/consuming-restful-apis-using-java">Consuming RESTful APIs using Java</a>
  <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3913502/restful-call-in-java">RESTful call in Java</a></p>
  
  <p>Any help is appreciated in moving forward.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks!!</p>
