Hi indeed, XMLSource could be a good option for handling the raw XML. String.class should help in retrieving raw XML/JSON...
Document.class and JSONObject are not supported out of the box. I will update the (JAXP) Source provider to support Documents as well with a bit of indirection, or may add a new provider...Not sure about JSONObject, but given that Jettison uses it internally, may be it would be possible to return it too... thanks, Sergey -----Original Message----- From: Rob Schoening [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Sun 1/10/2010 12:25 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: How can I make WebClient in test return raw XML or JSON? Just ask for the kind of object you want, and CXF will abide: webClient.get(String.class); webClient.get(InputStream.class); webClient.get(Document.class); webClient.get(XMLSource.class); // probably what you want for picking through XML output in unit tests webClient.get(JSONObject.class); // this one actually might not be registered by default...
