Hey Ron, sorry for not replying to this.... I got distracted after your email
and forgot to come back to it then :)
Anway... not sure I follow :)
As I see it, the issue on the client side will not be with "text/*" mime types
since it seems to me that the issue is that the "text/*" types are coming back
"wrapped" as a binary type in an InvocationResponse and the fact that it's
"text/plain" underneath has been lost. I hope that makes sense :)
So it seems to me like the Server to Client Marshal/Unmarshal process is
missing a piece of info and an additional client side step. From memory, I
think the http jbrserver-to-jbrclient response process for e.g. "text/plain" is
as follows:
| 1. [serverapp] return a String ("text/plain") response payload
| 2. [jbrserver] wrap "text/plain" response payload in an
InvocationResponse (serialized String I think)
| 3. [jbrserver] change content-type to "application/something"
because it's an InvocationResponse.
| 4. [jbrserver] marshal response to client
| 5. [jbrclient] unmarshal response from server
| 6. [jbrclient] return payload from InvocationResponse -
content-type is "application/something"
| 7. [clientapp] Use binary response (serialized String I think)???
|
So I was thinking there was a piece of info missing in the InvocationResponse
that tells the JBR Client that the payload is actually a serialized object and
the base content type is "text/plain".
| 1. [serverapp] return a String ("text/plain") response payload
| 2. [jbrserver] wrap "text/plain" response payload in an
InvocationResponse
| 3. [jbrserver] change content-type to "application/something"
because it's an InvocationResponse - store "base-content-type" = "text/plain".
| 4. [jbrserver] marshal response to client
| 5. [jbrclient] unmarshal response from server
| 6. [jbrclient] extract payload from InvocationResponse - it's a
serialized object... base-content-type = "text/plain"
| 7. [jbrclient] Deserialize payload to String - set response
content-type back to "text/plain"
| 8. [clientapp] Use String response ("text/plain")
|
Hope I'm making sense Ron :)
