Do you used the following? List<String> strings = ... GenericEntity<List<String>> entity = new GenericEntity<List<String>>(strings) {}; return Response.ok(entity).build(); directly evaluation of List<String> generally does not work in Java. So the GenericEntity was created in JAX-RS. There was a discussion in the JAX-RS mailing lists about this, see https://jsr311.dev.java.net/servlets/SearchList?list=users&searchText=Generi cEntity&defaultField=body&Search=Search <https://jsr311.dev.java.net/servlets/SearchList?list=users&searchText=Gener icEntity&defaultField=body&Search=Search> and https://jsr311.dev.java.net/servlets/SearchList?list=dev&searchText=GenericE ntity&defaultField=body&Search=Search <https://jsr311.dev.java.net/servlets/SearchList?list=dev&searchText=Generic Entity&defaultField=body&Search=Search> best regards Stephan ------------------------------------------------------ http://restlet.tigris.org/ds/viewMessage.do?dsForumId=4447&dsMessageId=12456 48 ------------------------------------------------------ http://restlet.tigris.org/ds/viewMessage.do?dsForumId=4447&dsMessageId=1296659
