Thanks for your swift reply. I immediately noticed that your example worked.
Hence the cause of the problem was probably in the setup/configuration of my
project.
The messages in the log-file of my tomcat 6.0.14 server made me conclude
that my resolver was properly registered. This was a wrong conclusion. The
solution was to explicitly include the resolver in the application that I
had to register in the web.xml file.
This is the excerpt of the web.xml file:
<servlet>
<display-name>Jersey Web Application</display-name>
<servlet-name>JSONThesauriServlet</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>com.sun.jersey.spi.container.servlet.ServletContainer</servlet-class>
<init-param>
<param-name>javax.ws.rs.Application</param-name>
<param-value> be.kvvcr.thesauri.rest.ThesauriRestApp</param-value>
</init-param>
</servlet>
and here is my new ThesauriRestApp (the line that was added is
"s.add(JAXBXSLResolver.class);"):
package be.kvvcr.thesauri.rest;
import java.util.HashSet;
import java.util.Set;
import javax.ws.rs.core.Application;
public class ThesauriRestApp extends Application {
@Override
public Set<Class<?>> getClasses() {
Set<Class<?>> s = new HashSet<Class<?>>();
s.add(DescriptorResource.class);
s.add(JAXBXSLResolver.class);
return s;
}
}
There was one more hickup: the vendor specific JAXB extension for the
xmlHeaders property is not available when using the JAXB-support of Java
6.0. As a consequence I had to copy a more recent JAXB implementation (I
took the JAXB reference implementation 20081030) to the tomcat directory
containing the bootstrap classes (and make sure it was loaded before loading
rt.jar).
The strange thing is that I now no longer see a message in my tomcat
log-file saying that my resolver is loaded. It is as if the automatic
scanning no longer works. I have no idea why at first the JAX-RS runtime
scanned for my resource and now no longer scans for my resources.
Anyway, things now seem to work as expected.
