The client and server would be seperate classes/interfaces:

client

@Path("/search")
public interface SearchEngineClient {


    @POST
    @ConsumeMime("application/xml")
    @ProduceMime("*/*")
    ClientResponse<Long> createSearch(ExtQuery);
}


server:

@Path("/search")
public class SearchEngine {

    @POST
    @ConsumeMime("application/xml")
    @ProduceMime("*/*")
    Response createSearch(ExtQuery) {
      ...
    }
}


Is the problem that you can't get at a ClientResponse that has no entity 
within it?
