Re: POST request : List input through JSON not being recognized
Hi
redirecting to the users list...

What exception is thrown ? May be it should be "{"Users":"", note 
capital 'U'

cheers, Sergey

Re: POST request : List input through JSON not being recognized Posted by ZenEighth <ze...@gmail.com>.
Thank you Sergey for your reply...apologies for the delay on my part..and for
this lengthy post :)

1)
Using CXF 2.4.2, with JAX-RS of the same version, 2.4.2 (please see my
second point related to this below), I am getting an exception that suggests
'List is not recognized/supported'. My apologies as I lost the exact
exception, and I since moved my code to wrap the List<> inside another
class. This seems to work, although I would love to go back to using List<>
directly, if possible. (I can get the exception for you, if you would like
me to though.)

Its the JSON input that causes this issue, XML input seems to work fine. 

2)  However, I noticed something that I can't explain. If I set both
Apache-CXF and JAX-RS (cxf-rt-frontend-jaxrs) the same 2.4.2 version in my
projects' pom file, I *cannot* get JSON data/response back, ever(XML is
fine). Even on a simple GET, it always throws this exception shown
below(Jettison version that Maven pulls-in is, Jettison-1.3.jar) :

BUT, if I change my project pom file to push-down the version on
JAX-RS(cxf-rt-frontend-jaxrs) *alone* to 2.4.0, and keep the rest of CXF
libraries @ 2.4.2, I get beautiful JSON responses for the same GET's and
POST's etc. This is totally repeatable by me on my end. And the weird thing
is Jettison library is still Jettison-1.3.jar. Thought this might interest
you. 

Summary:
So, to recap, my LIST<> input error happens with either versions of
JAX-RS(2.4.2 and 2.4.0), and this is with JSON input only (XML and SOAP are
fine). And secondly, if I use JAX-RS 2.4.2 and CXF 2.4.2, I *cannot* get
back JSON responses for a simple GET either. However, if I bump-down JAX-RS
to 2.4.0, and keep the rest of CXF libraries at 2.4.2, I get JSON output
from the same code (no changes are needed), and this is repeatable.

BTW, I have this deployed on an ancient version of JBoss, jBoss 4.2.3GA, and
I can't upgrade that :)

Here are the cxf related info from my pom file:
        <properties>
             <cxf.version>2.4.2</cxf.version>
        </properties>
          .................

Thank you once again Sergey..!
