显示异常javax.ws.rs.WebApplicationException的jersey休息服务：javax.xml.bind.MarshalException

Question

I am working on jersey services which i mentioned here it is working fine when i am returning a java object. Later i tried to make the java object generic its giving exception javax.ws.rs.WebApplicationException: javax.xml.bind.MarshalException

@XmlRootElement
public class AppObject<T> implements Serializable {

    private List<T> list;
    private String license;

    public AppObject() {
        list = new ArrayList<T>();

    }

    public AppObject(List<T> list) {
        this.list = list;
    }

    @XmlAnyElement(lax = true)
    public List<T> getList() {
        return list;
    }

    public void setList(List<T> list) {
        this.list = list;
    }

    public String getLicense() {
        return license;
    }

    public void setLicense(String license) {
        this.license = license;
    }

}

my service

@GET
    @Produces({MediaType.APPLICATION_XML ,MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON})
    @Path("/getreq")
    public  AppObject<DimRequirement> savePayment() {
        AppObject<DimRequirement> appObject = new AppObject<DimRequirement>();
        appObject.setLicense("4");
        Long clientKey=4L;
        List<DimRequirement> dimreqlist = dimRequirementDao.getAllByClientNIsCurrent(clientKey);
        appObject.setList(dimreqlist);
        return appObject;

    } 

DimRequirement which is setting to AppObject

@XmlRootElement
public class DimRequirement extends BaseObject implements Serializable {
private Long requirementKey;
private String description;
private String priority;
@Id
    @GeneratedValue(strategy=GenerationType.AUTO)
    @Column(name="requirementKey")
    public Long getRequirementKey() {
        return this.requirementKey;
    }    
    public void setRequirementKey(Long requirementKey) {
        this.requirementKey = requirementKey;
    }
 @Column(name="Description") 
    public String getDescription() {
        return this.description;
    }    
    public void setDescription(String description) {
        this.description = description;
    }
 @Column(name="Priority") 
    public String getPriority() {
        return this.priority;
    }    
    public void setPriority(String priority) {
        this.priority = priority;
    }
}

I referd following links link 1 link 2 but i was not able to solve the problem.

Answer 1

For your get method, the corresponding JAXBContext will be built on the class AppObject and not the type AppObject<DimRequirement> .

@GET
@Produces({MediaType.APPLICATION_XML ,MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON})
@Path("/getreq")
public  AppObject<DimRequirement> savePayment() {

You can make the JAXBContext that will be created on the AppObject class aware of DimRequirement by using the @XmlSeeAlso annotation.

@XmlRootElement
@XmlSeeAlso({DimRequirement.class})
public class AppObject<T> implements Serializable {
