'=' in String QueryParam not being encoded

I'm trying to pass an SQL query as a query parameter:

"select p from VirtualMachineEntity p where guest.guestId = :id"

Method signature is:

@POST
@Path("/compile")
public Query compile( @QueryParam("query") String queryText );

Class is annotated with

@Produces("application/xml")
@Consumes("application/xml")

In org.jboss.resteasy.util.Encode#encodeQueryString and org.jboss.resteasy.util.Encode#encodeSegment, look like the arguments in some of the calls to String#replace are backwards.

For instance,

URLEncoder.encode(segment, "UTF-8").replace("+", "%20").replace("%3B", ";").replace("%3D", "=").replace("%25", "%");

Should that be:

URLEncoder.encode(segment, "UTF-8").replace("+", "%20").replace(";","%3B").replace("=","%3D").replace("%","%25");

?

Thanks!
