             Summary: Accept Header not Respected with Response from Custom 
MessageReader
                 Key: CXF-6101
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CXF-6101
             Project: CXF
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: JAX-RS
    Affects Versions: 3.0.2
            Reporter: Joseph Athman
            Priority: Minor


I have created a custom MessageBodyReader class which implements the readFrom 
method and attempts to deserialize a JSON message using a specialized 
deserializer. If this fails for some reason, I am throwing a 
WebApplicationException with a Response build like this:

{{Response.status(HttpStatus.BAD_REQUEST_400).entity(myCustomResponseObject).build()}}

On the incoming request there is an Accept header which is respected when 
processing proceeds normally, but this header is not respected if I throw an 
exception in the readFrom method (content type of the response is always 
"text/xml"). The problem seems to be in the {{JAXRSInInterceptor}} class which 
creates a default message which does not have the exchange set on it, so when 
the createMessage method is invoked it is unable to find the correct content 
type so it will always default to "text/xml". Contrast the way this method 
works with how the {{ServiceInvokerInterceptor}} class creates a new message, 
it sets the exchange on the new message first before creating it.

I realize I could set an explicit media type when creating the response but 
this seems to defeat the purpose of server side content negotiation.
