---------------------------------------
Hi Jim - are you happy with the explanation ?
If yes - can you close the issue ?
I guess we can ship something like ObjectStringWriter which will implement
MessageBodyWriter only (because onviously we will no be able to convert from
String to the arbitrary object - so no MessageBodyReader). But it will not
registered OOB, you'd need to add it to your Application/etc - however as I
said that can pose the non-compliance risk to a given JAX-RS server if it is
meant to be a generic server.
Cheers, Sergey

> CXF reports it can't find the message writer for OrderModel class and
> text/plain content type when the resource class like the following:
> {code}
> @Produces("text/plain")
> @Path("order/{id}")
> public class OrderResource {
> @GET
> public OrderModel get(@PathParam("id") @CustomMax int id) {
> return new OrderModel(id);
> }
> }
> {code}
> It is required to change the return Class to String and explicitly invoke
> toString() return the String value
> {code}.
> @Produces("text/plain")
> @Path("order/{id}")
> public class OrderResource {
> @GET
> public String get(@PathParam("id") @CustomMax int id) {
> return new OrderModel(id).toString();
> }
> }
> {code}
> We can improve StringTextProvider to write the Object with toString value to
> remove the return type must be String class restriction.
