Description

The JAXRS specification seems unclear regarding how the method

UriBuilder.queryParam(String name, Object… values)

treats values w/ URL encoding. However, we could legitimately assume this method properly URL encodes parameter values.

CXF implementation URL encodes values, but with some defects:

invoking

UriBuilder.fromUri("my/path").queryParam("p", "%250%").toTemplate()

produces the URI template

my/path?p=%250%25 

instead of

my/path?p=%25250%25
