How about something like:
String reqLastMod = httpreq.getHeader("If-Modified-Since");
if (reqLastMod != null) {
return req.evaluatePreconditions(Date.valueOf(reqLastMod),
new EntityTag(httpreq.getHeader("If-None-Match"))).build();
}
return Response.ok(file).contentLocation(file.toURI()).build();
? Or is there a recommended way?
