Hi Serguey,
Thanks for your help. I'm just back from short holidays.
So I've created a class implementing MessageBodyWriter interface for
it can accept List<String> entity, as shown below :
-----------------------------------------------------------
@Provider
@Produces("text/xml,text/plain")
public class StringListBodyWriter implements
MessageBodyWriter<List<String>> {
public long getSize(List<String> t, Class<?> type, Type genericType,
Annotation[] annotations, MediaType mediaType) {
Iterator<String> i = t.iterator();
long size = 0;
while (i.hasNext()) {
size += i.next().length();
System.out.println("La taille de " + i + " est : "
+ i.next().length());
}
return size;
}
public boolean isWriteable(Class<?> type, Type genericType,
Annotation[] annotations, MediaType mediaType) {
return type.equals(List.class)
&& (mediaType.equals(MediaType.TEXT_PLAIN_TYPE)
| mediaType
.equals(MediaType.TEXT_XML_TYPE));
}
public void writeTo(List<String> t, Class<?> type, Type genericType,
Annotation[] annotations, MediaType mediaType,
MultivaluedMap<String, Object> httpHeaders,
OutputStream entityStream) throws IOException,
WebApplicationException {
BufferedWriter bw = new BufferedWriter(new OutputStreamWriter(
entityStream));
String ts = null;
Iterator<String> i = t.iterator();
while (i.hasNext()) {
ts += i.next().toString();
System.out.println("La String tString est :\n" + ts);
}
bw.write(ts);
bw.flush();
}
}
-----------------------------------------------------------
But, at runtime, I still have a similar error message :
---------------------------
28 avr. 2009 16:49:58
org.apache.cxf.jaxrs.interceptor.JAXRSOutInterceptor
writeResponseErrorMessage
ATTENTION: .No message body writer found for response class : ArrayList.
---------------------------
So how could the StringListBodyWriter class could be used when the
List based generic-entity Response is built ? I don't really see when
the StringListBodyWriter class is called :
---------------------------
return Response.ok(new
GenericEntity<List<String>>(results){}).entity(results).build();
---------------------------
Thanks, Raphael.
