Unable to retrieve response from "OPTIONS"

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Create a resource;
2. Create a annotated method (@OPTIONS);
3. Make a HTTP OPTIONS request to the resource;

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Resource:

@Path('/v1/category/{id}')
class CategoryResource {

    @GET
    @Produces(['application/xml', 'application/json'])
    Category getCategoryRepresentation(@PathParam('id') String id) {

        /*
         * method body 
         */

    }

    @OPTIONS
    @Produces(['text/plain'])
    Response options(){

        /*
         * method body 
         */

    }

}

Expected output: 
allow header = "Allow: GET, HEAD, OPTIONS"

Output:
allow header = "Allow: GET, HEAD, POST, PUT, DELETE, TRACE, OPTIONS"

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Grails 2.0.3
grails-jaxrs 0.6

Do you see the same output when using Jersey alone i.e. independent of the 
grails-jaxrs plugin?

Hello Martin.

Sorry for the delayed answer. After further investigation I've discovered that 
the GrailsDispatcherServlet was the responsable for the odd behavior.

The result using Jersey alone was exactly what I was expecting (a wadl xml for 
the resource and the allow header with the annotated http methods only).

I've forked the grails-jaxrs project and if everything works out fine I 
politely ask you to accept my pull request.

Sample Code:

@Path('/v1/category/{id}')
class CategoryResource {

    @GET
    @Produces(['application/xml', 'application/json'])
    Category getCategoryRepresentation(@PathParam('id') String id) {

        /*
         * method body 
         */

    }

    @OPTIONS
    @Produces(['text/plain'])
    Response options(){

        /*
         * method body 
         */

    }

}

200 OPTIONS http://localhost:8080/api/v1/category

                    <response>
                        <representation mediaType="application/xml"/>
                        <representation mediaType="application/json"/>
                    </response>
                </method>
            </resource>
        </resources>
