public class PlaceOrder {

    @POST
    @Path("/placeOrder")
    @Consumes({ MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON })
    public void placeOrder(PlaceOrderRequest placeOrderRequest,@Context HttpHeaders headers, @Context HttpServletRequest request,@Context HttpServletResponse response)
            throws GwExceptions {
        if(5>2){
            boolean truechils=true;
        }
    }
}

and this is My placeOderReques class

@XmlRootElement(name = "placeorderequest")
@XmlAccessorType(XmlAccessType.FIELD)
@XmlType(propOrder = {"userName","numberOfItem","orderTimeslot",
        "userAddress","addressLandmark","orderStatus","totalPrice"})
public class PlaceOrderRequest extends RestApiResponseParent{

    @XmlElement(name = "userName", required = true)
    @SerializedName("userName")
    private String userName;

    @XmlElement(name = "numberOfItem", required = true)
    @SerializedName("numberOfItem")
    private int numberOfItem;

    @XmlElement(name = "orderTimeslot", required = true)
    @SerializedName("orderTimeslot")
    private Date orderTimeslot;

    @XmlElement(name = "userAddress", required = true)
    @SerializedName("userAddress")
    private String userAddress;

    @XmlElement(name = "addressLandmark", required = true)
    @SerializedName("addressLandmark")
    private String addressLandmark;

    @XmlElement(name = "orderStatus", required = true)

    public void setUserName(String userName) {
        this.userName = userName;
    }

    public int getNumberOfItem() {
        return numberOfItem;
    }

    public void setNumberOfItem(int numberOfItem) {
        this.numberOfItem = numberOfItem;
    }

    public Date getOrderTimeslot() {
        return orderTimeslot;
    }

    public void setOrderTimeslot(Date orderTimeslot) {
        this.orderTimeslot = orderTimeslot;
    }

    public String getUserAddress() {
        return userAddress;
    }

    public void setUserAddress(String userAddress) {
        this.userAddress = userAddress;
    }

    public String getAddressLandmark() {
        return addressLandmark;
    }

    public void setAddressLandmark(String addressLandmark) {
        this.addressLandmark = addressLandmark;
    }

    public String getOrderStatus() {
        return orderStatus;
    }

    public void setOrderStatus(String orderStatus) {
        this.orderStatus = orderStatus;
    }

    public Double getTotalPrice() {
        return totalPrice;
    }

    public void setTotalPrice(Double totalPrice) {
        this.totalPrice = totalPrice;
    }

An answer on an cxf-dev board suggests that you need to set the namespace for the @XmlRootElement

So: @XmlRootElement(name = "placeorderequest", namespace="")
