----------------------------------

             Summary: Cannot create ContextResolver for class extending 
HttpServletRequest, HttpServletResponse, etc.
                 Key: CXF-6472
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CXF-6472
             Project: CXF
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 3.1.1, 3.0.4
         Environment: all
            Reporter: Tomasz Bradlo


I tried to wrap HttpServletRequest by using ContextProvider, lets assume such a 
simple implementation:

@Provider
public class CustomHttpRequestContextResolver implements 
ContextResolver<CustomHttpRequest> {

        @Context
        private HttpServletRequest request;

   public CustomHttpRequest getContext(Class<?> type) {
     return new CustomHttpRequest(request); 
   }
}

However, before calling context provider CXF first calls 
JAXRSUtils.createServletResourceValue() method that tries to cast 
HttpServletRequest into my wrapped request and it fails with ClassCastException.

I havent found in JAX_RS spec anything telling that such a ContextResolver is 
forbidden.This works also with Apache Wink.
