Hi Sergey,
I found some other sample XML on the web, and it appears to amount to this:
<bean id="jaxbProvider"
class="org.apache.cxf.jaxrs.provider.JAXBElementProvider">
<property name="marshallerProperties">
<map>
<entry key="jaxb.formatted.output">
<value type="java.lang.Boolean">true</value>
</entry>
</map>
</property>
</bean>
Yet, even this doesn't work (nor does "TRUE"). The XML still comes back
without whitespace, when I make a REST call, and with no particular formatting.
I know it's at least looking at this value because when I try to, e.g., change
it to "marshallerPropertiesx" (to put a typo in it), it complains, and suggests
"marshallerProperties" for me. So, I think the setting is fine. Somehow, CXF
and JAXB just aren't connecting the dots.
I'm using a Spring-based approach now, to my knowledge. My web.xml says:
<context-param>
<param-name>contextConfigLocation</param-name>
<param-value>WEB-INF/beans.xml</param-value>
</context-param>
<listener>
<listener-class>
org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoaderListener
</listener-class>
</listener>
<servlet>
<servlet-name>CDETSWSAPI</servlet-name>
<display-name>CDETS Web Services API</display-name>
<servlet-class>
org.apache.cxf.transport.servlet.CXFServlet
</servlet-class>
<load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>CDETSWSAPI</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/v1/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
while my beans.xml says:
<bean id="defectResourceBean"
class="com.cisco.cdets.wsapi.resources.DefectResource"/>
<jaxrs:server id="defectResource" address="/">
<jaxrs:serviceBeans>
<ref bean="defectResourceBean"/>
</jaxrs:serviceBeans>
</jaxrs:server>
<bean id="jaxbProvider"
class="org.apache.cxf.jaxrs.provider.JAXBElementProvider">
<property name="marshallerProperties">
<map>
<entry key="jaxb.formatted.output">
<value type="java.lang.Boolean">true</value>
</entry>
</map>
</property>
</bean>
Any ideas?
Thanks!
