Hi ManiKanta,
Thank you for introducing me to the Viewable
<
http://jersey.java.net/nonav/apidocs/1.1.0-ea/jersey/com/sun/jersey/api/view/Viewable.html>
class in jersey. It will be useful in my solution. However, your post
does not seem to address the need I have as follows:
* Keep a single set of resource methods that return XML response
* Allow XML response to be algorithmically mapped to HTML using some
custom mapping class(es)
I had mentioned that my current resource methods somehow support
"application/json" automatically using the
com.sun.jersey:jersey-json:jar:1.10:compile dependency even though the
method just returns an XML response. Clearly the jersey-json adds
support for marshalling/unmarshalling json from XML. I want to do
similar by marshalling responses to HTML.
I am just not familiar enough with jersey API and framework as to how to
do that. Given more time I will figure it out but I was hoping that
someone could provide high level steps of how to do that. Thank in advance.
