I use a utility method. Sample usage:
replaceConverter(JacksonConverter.class, myLocalJacksonConverter);
Here's the code for the utility method:
/**
* Registers a new converter with the Restlet engine, after removing
* the first registered converter of the given class.
*/
static void replaceConverter(
Class<? extends ConverterHelper> converterClass,
ConverterHelper newConverter) {
ConverterHelper oldConverter = null;
List<ConverterHelper> converters =
Engine.getInstance().getRegisteredConverters();
for (ConverterHelper converter : converters) {
if (converter.getClass().equals(converterClass)) {
converters.remove(converter);
oldConverter = converter;
break;
}
}
converters.add(newConverter);
if (oldConverter == null) {
logger.debug("Added {} to Restlet Engine",
newConverter.getClass());
} else {
logger.debug("Replaced {} with {} in Restlet Engine",
oldConverter.getClass(), newConverter.getClass());
}
}
