If i'm posting this in the incorrect forum please let me know.
I have a few simple web methods exposed over Glassfish V3 using Jersey / JAX RS.
Basically, these are @GET methods and a single @POST method. My client implementation follows the pattern listed in the Jersey Documentation here:
https://jersey.dev.java.net/nonav/documentation/latest/user-guide.html
Client test methods are similar to this:
[code]
Client c = Client.create();
WebResource r = c.resource(“
http://localhost:8080/...”);
String response = r.accept("text/plain").post(String.class, request);
[/code]
I'm running into an issue on one of my server methods which performs a Post, and does some more meaniningful work. I was under the impression that I could ask for a JSONObject from the client, and receive this on the server so I did the following on the server:
[code]
@POST
@Path("submit")
@Consumes("application/json")
@Produces("text/plain")
public String doSubmit ( JSONObject object ) {
// stuff
return id;
}
[/code]
The corresponding test client method for the post is listed as such:
[code]
Client c = Client.create();
WebResource r = c.resource(“
http://localhost:8080/submit”);
JSONObject object = new JSONObject ();
/* cofigure the object (code not shown) */
String response = r.accept("text/plain").type("application/json").post(String.class, request);
[/code]
How does one send a JSONObject over post from the client to the server? Or is it the client's responsibility to only send strings? I see that there is low-level support included for JSON Objects according to the Jersey manual, I would think that they could be serialized somehow?
thanks
