Hi,


I try to write a client (with Jersey 2.16) that receives and processes a multipart response from a server. However, the server sends "application/x-bulk-multipart+xml; version=1.0" as mediaType, and the entity has 2 body parts: a "application/atom+xml; type=feed" and another application mediaType.


My first attempt was to use `MultiPart mp = response.readEntity(MultiPart.class);` which compiled but failed during runtime because of a media type mismatch. Then I tried to create a derived class from MultiPart, but this fails as well because MultiPart.setMediaType rejects any media types that are not "multipart" (see line 122 in [1] for details).


Any ideas how to proceed?
