Hi Florian,
If you want to return a status code related to errors you can throw a
WebApplicationException in the HTTP method.
You can also throw your own runtime exception or a checked exception
(the latter can be declared on the HTTP method) which will default to a
500 status code.
So for the delete use-case you describe there is no need for a
@ReturnCode annotation and you can use familiar and existing coding
mechanisms, the runtime will work what to do.
Paul.
