Hello Ramesh, 1) You must remove this instruction before calling getObject() : System.out.println(jsonRepresentation.getText()); // HERE IS THE CULPRIT
The incoming representation is an instance of InputRepresentation. It's a kind of representation that reads its content directly from the network socket. The problem is that you cannot read a socket twice, thus this representation must be consumed (by getting the object, or printing its content) only once. If you want to reuse the content, make it persistent by, for example storing the representation in memory (cf StringRepresentation), or storing it on the file system (cf FileRepresentation). Your next question is: why the framework generates by default this kind of non-persistent representation? We cannot assume to use persistent representations: - storing content in memory exposes you to potentially dramatic problem: for example a request may post an infinite representation which would injure your JVM. - storing content on file system is not a solution that the framework can impose by default 2) Is ForeignCollection an interface or abstract class?
