CXF JAXRS | Complex response types are not present in the generated wadl when 
returning list of objects
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: CXF-4144
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CXF-4144
             Project: CXF
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: JAX-RS
    Affects Versions: 2.5.2
            Reporter: Gayathri.Muralidharan


We use cxf 2.5.2 along with spring for exposing and consuming restful services. 
For distributing the service interface classes, we started using wadl2java goal 
(which generates interface classes based on the given wadl file)

The generated wadl doesnt contain the proper response type, because of which i 
guess, the generated interfaces all have 'Response' as the return type.

Ex. if the restful get method returns 'List' , the generated wadl contains the 
following segment only:

<response><representation mediaType="application/json"/></response>

and the corresponding interface generated from this wadl file contains the 
return type as 'Response'

Can someone suggest what needs to be done to prevent the actual response type 
from getting lost? Are any annotations (like ElementClass ? how to use it ?) or 
providers required?

Current code:

@GET
@Path("/itemsForCategory")
@Produces("application/json")
@Description("getItemsForCategory")
public List<Item> getItemsForCategory(@QueryParam("category")String category) 
{//implementation}

Found 
http://cxf.547215.n5.nabble.com/Problem-with-WADL-generation-and-returning-a-List-of-objects-td4713351.html#a5507490
 . But the issue doesnt seem to be fixed.

Can someone help us out here?
