REST plugin does not throw a 404 if resource cannot be found
------------------------------------------------------------
Key: WW-2515
URL: https://issues.apache.org/struts/browse/WW-2515
Project: Struts 2
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Plugin - REST
Affects Versions: 2.1.1
Environment: Struts 2.1.1-SNAPSHOT using Jetty 6.1.5
Reporter: Sarat Pediredla
When there is a GET request for a resource that does not exist, example GET
/authors/25 where author with id 25 does not exist, the getModel() method of
the action should return null (and in most cases will return null as the object
does not exist).
However, the current ContentTypeInterceptor implementation is not entirely
RESTful as the right response should be HTTP Status Code 404 "Not Found".
I have patched the ContentTypeInterceptor to return a 404 status if the
requested resource could not be found.
