JAXB Decorator

[premkumar manivannan]

Hello,

I am using Rest easy 2.0 Version. and trying to use the  JAXB Decorator during Marshalling

I followed the documentation as per 19.1 of REST easy Reference Guide but this does not work.

I have done the below steps

Please let me know if i am doing some thing wrong.

1.  Declared a annotation Named   Format

/*

@Target({ElementType.TYPE, ElementType.METHOD, ElementType.PARAMETER, ElementType.FIELD})
@Retention(RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME)
@Decorator(processor = FormatProcessor.class, target = Marshaller.class)
public @interface Format
{

}

*/

2.  A Concrete class implemented the above Declared interface

/*   @DecorateTypes({"text/*+xml", "application/*+xml"})
public class FormatProcessor implements DecoratorProcessor<Marshaller, Format>
{
   public Marshaller decorate(Marshaller target, Format annotation,
                              Class type, Annotation annotations, MediaType mediaType)
   {
      try
      {
         target.setProperty(Marshaller.JAXB_ENCODING,"UTF-16");
         return target;
      }
      catch (Exception ex)
      {
         throw new RuntimeException(ex);
      }
   }
}

*/

 
3.  Modified my Resource class to use the above declared annoation

/*  @POST
    @Format
    @Consumes("application/xml")
    @Produces("application/xml")
    public Customer createCustomer(Customer customer) {

}

*/

I am deploying this to  Oc4j Server. Server Starts up normally ..but the framework does not recognize the annoation when it invokes the Resource.

Please let me know a way. to solve this.

Sure this is not a Bug ,As the @Formatted annoation works really good.

Thanks
