Hi Andi,
I see a activity on the Apache JIRA anytime I look, so I figured you guys
are busy!
With the REST output, I was wondering if I was missing something from the
docs on how to customize the way the REST viewer serializes the Blob class,
or any given interface. If so, this would address an issue I raised
earlier on having a client generated from the schema be complete as far as
calling object actions without having to define a field for the object id
in your code. I'll post again if I find the answer.
Thanks,
Brian
