Sergey Beryozkin commented on CXF-6307:
---------------------------------------
I think it is pretty confusing, the lack of the explicit text/plain does not
mean the provider does not support text/plain.
Overall your analysis is probably correct; some clarity is needed re the spec
text which says the application provider providers are preferred, in this
simple case, if we start sorting with media types, the default provider (should
it have text/plain) would be chosen first but it is clearly losing to the
custom provider because the latter is typed on Boolean, the former - on Object.
Here is a relevant text from selecting MessageBodyWriters:
"Sort the selected MessageBodyWriter providers with a primary key of generic
type where providers
whose generic type is the nearest superclass of the object class are sorted
first and a secondary key of
media type (see Section 4.2.3)."
So if it were a writer case, the custom provider would obviously win.
I wonder why the reader selection process does not mention the generic types,
can it be a spec bug ?
I'll clarify and please investigate on your end too

> Key: CXF-6307
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CXF-6307
> Project: CXF
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: JAX-RS
> Affects Versions: 3.0.3
> Environment: Windows
> Reporter: Neal Hu
> Fix For: 3.0.5
>
>
> This is a CTS testcase, the resource class is like this:
> @POST
> @Path("boolean")
> public Boolean postBoolean(Boolean bool) {
> if(bool){
> throw new WebApplicationException(Status.NOT_ACCEPTABLE);
> }
> return false;
> }
> The application provided provider is like this:
> public class MyReader implements MessageBodyReader<Boolean> {
> @Override
> public boolean isReadable(Class<?> type, Type type1, Annotation[] antns,
> MediaType mt) {
> return type== Boolean.class;
> }
> @Override
> public Boolean readFrom(Class<Boolean> type,
> Type type1,
> Annotation[] antns,
> MediaType mt, MultivaluedMap<String, String> mm,
> InputStream in) throws IOException,
> WebApplicationException {
> return Boolean.valueOf("true");
> }
> }
> The request
> Content-Type:text/plain
> Accept:text/plain
> Method:POST
> Body:false
> According to jsr339 section 4.2.4 Standard Entity Providers
> java.lang.Boolean, java.lang.Character, java.lang.Number Only for text/plain.
> Corresponding primitive types supported via boxing/unboxing conversion.
> An implementation MUST support application-provided entity providers and MUST
> use those in preference to its own pre-packaged providers when either could
> handle the same request. More precisely, step 4 in Section 4.2.1 and step 5
> in Section 4.2.2 MUST prefer application-provided over pre-packaged entity
> providers.
> 4.2.1 Message Body Reader
> 3. Select the set of MessageBodyReader classes that support the media type of
> the request, see Section
> 4.2.3.
> 4. Iterate through the selected MessageBodyReader classes and, utilizing the
> isReadable method of
> each, choose a MessageBodyReader provider that supports the desired Java type.
> It says the entity providers should be sorted by media type firstly then(the
> media type is the same) on Section 4.2.1 and step 5 in Section 4.2.2 MUST
> prefer application-provided over pre-packaged entity providers. So
> org.apache.cxf.jaxrs.provider.PrimitiveTextProvider should be selected as its
> media type MUST be text/plain and the application provider's media type is
> */*.(x/y>x/*>*/*)
> So at this point the CTS expected response code is 200 instead of 406, the
> application provided provider should not be chosen.
