Answer 1

Resteasy since 3.0.14.Final do support WADL generation. You need to add resteasy-wadl to your dependency manager (e.g. maven):

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.jboss.resteasy</groupId>
    <artifactId>resteasy-wadl</artifactId>
    <version>3.0.19.Final</version>
</dependency>

then declare a new servlet endpoint in your web.xml for providing generated wadl file:

<servlet>
    <servlet-name>WADL</servlet-name>
    <servlet-class>org.jboss.resteasy.wadl.ResteasyWadlServlet</servlet-class>
</servlet>

<servlet-mapping>
    <servlet-name>WADL</servlet-name>
    <url-pattern>/application.wadl</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
