What is happening? Are you getting an error? Are you getting a list of Dog objects instead of Animal? Need more information on what is going on.

Hi,

I have a problem in return a collection of objects using their interface. for example, Animal is the interface and Dog is a class. where I can only do a list of dogs like so:

interface Animal{
}

class Dog implements Animal{
}

@GET
@Path("test")
@Produces({ MediaType.APPLICATION_XML, MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON })
public JResponse<List<Dog>> getDogs(){
...
List<Dog> dogs = new ArrayList<Dog>();
...
return JResponse.ok(dogs).build();
}


but I can't return a list of Animal, if:


Is it possible in JAXB?
