Nishant commented on CXF-4144: ------------------------------ When you provide return object as List<Item> then Item should be serialize-able over the network. Another issue can be you are using Interface (List) to return response. You have to write define xsd for your List object or use appropriate annotation for it. Can you check if you can get the data for String[] if yes then above mentioned is the problem. > 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 > Labels: jax-rs, wadl, wadl2java > > 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? -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
