* parameters from either the request instance or any other available run-time
* information. Once the set of input parameter values is computed, the underlying
* invocation handler instance is invoked to process (invoke) the Java resource
* method with the computed input parameter values. The returned response is
* subsequently converted into a JAX-RS {@code Response} type and returned
* from the dispatcher.
*
* It is assumed that the supplied resource implements the invocable method.

* that respect.
