Hi Akos, you definitely should be able to set multiple values for @ProduceMime.
According to spec, if @ProduceMime contains multiple MIME types (or it’s a wild
card such as "*/*"), the actual output content type being used is determined by:
1. the output Java type: i.e., if your method is declared as:
@HttpMethod("GET")
@UriTemplate("/books/{bookId}/")
@ProduceMime("application/xml, "application/json")
public Book getBook (@UriParam("bookId") String id) throws
BookNotFoundFault {
...
}
The EntityProvider under consideration (JAXBElementProvider or
JSONEntityProvider) must support the Book type. In CXF, if your Book class is
declared with @XmlRootElement annotation, both JAXBElementProvider or
JSONEntityProvider's supports() method will return true
2. The Accepted header.
3. If there are still multiple EntityProvider selected after step 1 and 2
(EntityProvider is used to produce output), the first one in the candidate list
is selected. The candidate list is sorted using " x/y < x/* < */*".
In your case, if your client did not set accepted header, "application/json"
should be selected, I guess there is a bug that did not set output MIME type
correctly. I will fix this. Jira created:
