Restlet client returns null

Question

I have an jax-rs annotated interface

public interface Store {

    @Path("/apipath")
    @Produces({MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON, MediaType.APPLICATION_XML})
    @Consumes(MediaType.APPLICATION_FORM_URLENCODED)
public Token login(@BeanParam Header header, 
        @FormParam(value = "type") String type);        

}

Token is a class annotated with jaxb annotations.

I want to use this interface as a client proxy.

Store s = new ClientResource(url).wrap(Store.class);
Token t = s.login(...);

The returned token is always null. No exception is thrown. If i use the same interface but as a jax-rs implementation i choose either cxf or resteasy the method returns non-null object with correct data.

im using org.restlet.ext.jaxrs 2.3.3, org.restlet.ext.jackson 2.3.3, org.restlet.ext.jaxb 2.3.1

Answer 1

The ClientResource class and its wrap method only supports native Restlet annotations (like @Get , @Post , ...). The JaxRsClientResource does something similar but in the context of JAX-RS.

Hope it helps you, Thierry
