When using ResponseBuilder to create Response of multiparts, the boundary attribute in the Content-Type Header is missing -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: CXF-3399 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CXF-3399 Project: CXF Issue Type: Bug Components: WS-* Components Affects Versions: 2.3.3 Environment: XP 2002 SP-3, JDK 1.6.0.17, cxf-2.3.3, Reporter: Avshalom Yeshurun Hello, We have implemented the following method while the output of the Response should be a multipart message. @POST @Path("{destinationAddress}/messages/payloads") @Consumes("application/xml") @Produces({"multipart/related", "multipart/mixed", "multipart/form-data"}) public Response postMailboxMessagesPayloadRequest(@Context HttpServletRequest request, @PathParam("destinationAddress") String destinationAddress, @Context ServletContext servletContext, JAXBElement<MailboxMessagesPayload> jAXBElement) { try{ List<Attachment> attachments = ((MultipartBody)mwMailboxMessagesPayloadResponse.getBody()).getAllAttachments(); MultipartBody multipartBody = new MultipartBody(attachments); ResponseBuilder responseBuilder = Response.status(HttpURLConnection.HTTP_OK); responseBuilder.type(multipartBody.getType() responseBuilder.entity(multipartBody); Response response = responseBuilder.build(); return response; } catch(Exception e){ } The thing is that no matter what we do, we can not have the 'boundary' which is determined by the CXF engine to appear in the Content-Type on the main header. As a result no Client will be able to parse the returned message. If we try to manually set the Content-Type header while giving it our own 'boundary', the result is that a different boundary is generated for the actual message, while the boundary we set is not the same. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
