good evening!
My first post to CXF, so I excuse if I ask something obvious ;)
We have the following code over in Apache OpenWebBeans / Meecrowave:
@Produces({
"application/json", "*/json",
"*/*+json", "*/x-json",
"*/javascript", "*/x-javascript"
})
@Consumes({
"application/json", "*/json",
"*/*+json", "*/x-json",
"*/javascript", "*/x-javascript"
})
public static class ConfiguredJsonbJaxrsProvider<T> extends
JsonbJaxrsProvider<T> {
I tried to use the CXF WebClient to send a multipart form with a file
attachment. MediaType is application/octet-stream.
Sadly I always triggered our Johnzon JSONB provider (johnzon.apache.org).
The reason is that */json seems to match ANY other MediaType, regardless of the
subtype. Is this intended?
The code I found during debugging is the following in geronimo-jaxrs_2.0
MediaType:
public boolean isCompatible(MediaType other) {
return other != null && (type.equals(MEDIA_TYPE_WILDCARD) ||
other.type.equals(MEDIA_TYPE_WILDCARD) ||
(type.equalsIgnoreCase(other.type) &&
(subtype.equals(MEDIA_TYPE_WILDCARD) ||
other.subtype.equals(MEDIA_TYPE_WILDCARD))) ||
(type.equalsIgnoreCase(other.type) &&
this.subtype.equalsIgnoreCase(other.subtype)));
}
I'm geronimo PMC myself so I can even fix it. But would need some feedback how
it should behave.
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/geronimo/specs/trunk/geronimo-jaxrs_2.0_spec/
I did a quick look at the RI and now I'm even more confused:
public boolean isCompatible(MediaType other) {
return other != null && // return false if other is null, else
(type.equals(MEDIA_TYPE_WILDCARD) ||
other.type.equals(MEDIA_TYPE_WILDCARD) || // both are wildcard types, or
(type.equalsIgnoreCase(other.type) &&
(subtype.equals(MEDIA_TYPE_WILDCARD)
|| other.subtype.equals(MEDIA_TYPE_WILDCARD)))
|| // same types, wildcard sub-types, or
(type.equalsIgnoreCase(other.type) &&
this.subtype.equalsIgnoreCase(other.subtype))); // same types & sub-types
}
It says "both are wildcard types" but the code is actually ONE of them is a
wildcard type, isn't?
(type.equals(MEDIA_TYPE_WILDCARD) || other.type.equals(MEDIA_TYPE_WILDCARD) ||
// both are wildcard types, or
Any hints are highly welcome, my head is already hurting...
What are the actual rules for matching MediaTypes? What does the spec define?
