Hello,I have the following simple java Class which I would like to publish as a web service: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- public class Service { public String print(Person p){ return p.info(); } } -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I have also two classes, "Person" and its subclass "Student" which define differently the "info()" method: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ public class Person { private String name; public Person() { this.name = "diana"; } public String info(){ return "this is a person, his name is " + this.name; } public String getName(){ return this.name; } public void setName(String name){ this.name = name; } } ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ public class Student extends Person{ private String school; public Student() { super(); this.school="emn"; } public String info(){ return "this is a student, his name is " + this.getName() + " from the school of " + this.school; } public String getSchool(){ return this.school; } public void setSchool(String school){ this.school = school; } } --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The problem is by using jaxws, I didn't find the way to build a client which would like to call the print service with a student object. Only "person" objects are accepted. Is there a way to do that in cxf? The same is for JaxRS by using annotations. For example, if I have the following post method: --------------------------------------------------------- @POST @Path("/persons/") public Response addPerson(Person p) { ... } --------------------------------------------------------- and I annotated the person class with: @XmlRootElement(name = "Person") and the Student class which extends Person is annotated with: @XmlRootElement(name = "Student") I can't send to the post method an XML with a "Student" root element because only "Person" root element is accepted.
This should work OK with CXF 2.4.8/2.5.4/2.6.1, please also see http://cxf.apache.org/docs/jax-rs-data-bindings.html#JAX-RSDataBindings-AutomaticJAXBElementconversionduringserialization Cheers, Sergey
Is there an inheritance annotation in cxf to solve this problem? if not, why this issue is not considered in the implementation of the cxf framework?
