> In using the auto-generated wadl for jax-rs rest services in cxf (2.2.9) I
> have found that all my jaxb annotated xml beans are defined in the grammars
> section of the wadl, but they are not referenced as elements in the
> representation element of methods in the resources section. Indeed it would
> be difficult to automatically determine the correct element for methods that
> return a Response object containing a jaxb annotated object instead of
> returning the object itself.
> To overcome this I suggest creating a WadlElement annotation that allows the
> method to be annotated with the class accepted in the request and returned by
> the response even where it is not the declared return type of the method.
> For example, the following method declaration in a Rest service currently
> produces an auto-generated wadl as shown below:
> // method from jax-rs service:
> @POST
> @Path("/")
> @Produces("application/xml")
> @Consumes("application/xml")
> public Response doStuff(@Context MessageContext context, MyXmlBean
> bean) {
> return Response.ok(bean,
> MediaType.APPLICATION_XML_TYPE).build();
> }
> <!-- snippet of auto-generated wadl: -->
> <resource path="/">
> <method name="POST">
> <request>
> <representation mediaType="application/xml" />
> </request>
> <response>
> <representation mediaType="application/xml" />
> </response>
> </method>
> Using the annotation, this would become:
> // method from jax-rs service using annotation:
> @POST
> @Path("/")
> @Produces("application/xml")
> @Consumes("application/xml")
> @WadlElement(request = MyXmlBean.class, response = MyXmlBean.class)
> public Response doStuff(@Context MessageContext context, MyXmlBean
> bean) {
> return Response.ok(bean,
> MediaType.APPLICATION_XML_TYPE).build();
> }
> <!-- snippet of auto-generated wadl usign annotation. Note that the element
> "myXmlBean" is defined in the grammars section of the wadl: -->
> <resource path="/">
> <method name="POST">
> <request>
> <representation mediaType="application/xml" element="myXmlBean" />
> </request>
> <response>
> <representation mediaType="application/xml" element="myXmlBean" />
> </response>
> </method>
