Description

Hi,

I have multiple endpoints and I would like to apply the same CORS configuration for all services.
What I've done is to create a root interface like this:

@CrossOriginResourceSharing(
        allowAllOrigins = true,
        allowCredentials = true,
        maxAge = 1209600,
        allowHeaders = {"X-HTTP-Method-Override"},
        exposeHeaders = {"X-Total-Count"}
)
public interface CorsEnabledService {
}

and then I've extended on all my actual services this interface:

@Path("/example1")
public interface ExampleService extends CorsEnabledService {

    @GET
    @Path("/")
    @Produces({MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON})
    Response getResults();
}

@Path("/example2")
public interface SecondExampleService extends CorsEnabledService {

    @GET
    @Path("/")
    @Produces({MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON})
    Response getSecondResults();
}

This is not working and I have to duplicate the cors related annotation everywhere.
Isn't this supposed to work? It will be awesome to have it working.

I see this as a bug since defining common annotations is quite a common practice and I would expect this to work.
