Sergey Beryozkin commented on CXF-4849:
---------------------------------------
Yes, reproduced with XML response.
This is due to the client not registering a customized provider, here is the
code:
{code:java}
@Test
public void testGetGenericBookSimple() throws Exception {
JAXBElementProvider<?> provider = new JAXBElementProvider<Object>();
provider.setExtraClass(new Class[]{BookStore.SimpleBook.class});
WebClient wc = WebClient.create("http://localhost:" + PORT +
"/bookstore/genericbooks/simple",
Collections.singletonList(provider));
wc.accept("application/xml");
GenericType<BookResponse<SimpleBook>> responseType = new
GenericType<BookResponse<SimpleBook>>() {
};
BookResponse<SimpleBook> response = wc.get(responseType);
SimpleBook book = response.getEntity();
assertEquals("simple", book.getName());
}
{code}
Note, you need to set this extra class on the client path too, or register your
custom provider which will do it dynamically.
FYI, I'm not merging the above code as no source changes are needed, but hope
this fragment will help.
