Hi,
the subject of this issue seems to be the content negociation algorithm.
On one side, the client lists all media types he knows or is able to
manage (the accepted media types).
On the other side, the server is able to serve several representations
of the same resource.
The aim of the content negociation algorithm is to confront the list of
all client's acceptable variants and the list of all available server's
variants. When the best one has been detected (or some default one),
it's time to serve it (in method Resource#getrepresentation(Variant)).
I hope this will help you,

Hi,
try something like:
ClientInfo clientInfo = new ClientInfo();
clientInfo.setAcceptedMediaTypes(new
ArrayList<Preference<MediaType>>().);
clientInfo.getAcceptedMediaTypes().add(new
Preference<MediaType>(MediaType.APPLICATION_JAVA_OBJECT));
request.setClientInfo(clientInfo);

Here's the code:
Request request = new Request(Method.GET,
"http://localhost:8182/users/dog";);
ChallengeResponse authentication = new
ChallengeResponse(ChallengeScheme.HTTP_BASIC, "admin", "admin");
request.setChallengeResponse(authentication);
Client client = new Client(Protocol.HTTP);
Response response = client.handle(request);
String str = (String) response.getEntityAsObject();
System.out.println(str);
Keeps requesting MediaType.TEXT_PLAIN but I'm trying to get an
object. I have the server setup to send object.
if
(variant.getMediaType().equals(MediaType.APPLICATION_JAVA_OBJECT)) {
result = new ObjectRepresentation("Testing....");
System.out.println("\nAPPLICATION_JAVA_OBJECT\n");
}
Where am I going wrong?
