[jira] Commented: (CXF-1782) ServletController.generateServiceList is private - cannot extend/change the way a service list is built

["Glen Mazza (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CXF-1782?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12629648#action_12629648 ] 

Glen Mazza commented on CXF-1782:
---------------------------------

I think we have an ability to specify a CSS for the service list--I would search our CXF user's list for that.

Beyond that, -0.5.  I would think service generation should be FINAL -- not something that can be overridden or modified.  AFAIK the service list construction mechanism is defined within the JAX-WS specification, which CXF is programmed to implement.  It would perhaps be akin to CXF defined to provide the perimeter of a circle given its radius, yet allowing itself to be overridden to provide the area instead.

> The ServletController.generateService method is private instead of protected. This means that in order to change the way/layout of the service list I have to override the invoke method instead, which is not recommended since it contains some logic that might be updated in a later version.
> Proposed solution:
> Change: private void generateServiceList(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)  throws IOException
> To: protected void generateServiceList(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)  throws IOException
