<T> ContextResolver<T> |
getContextResolver(java.lang.Class<T> contextType,
MediaType mediaType)
Get a context resolver for a particular type of context and media type.
|
<T extends java.lang.Throwable> |
getExceptionMapper(java.lang.Class<T> type)
Get an exception mapping provider for a particular class of exception.
|
<T> MessageBodyReader<T> |
getMessageBodyReader(java.lang.Class<T> type,
java.lang.reflect.Type genericType,
java.lang.annotation.Annotation[] annotations,
MediaType mediaType)
Get a message body reader that matches a set of criteria.
|
<T> MessageBodyWriter<T> |
getMessageBodyWriter(java.lang.Class<T> type,
java.lang.reflect.Type genericType,
java.lang.annotation.Annotation[] annotations,
MediaType mediaType)
Get a message body writer that matches a set of criteria.

type
is assignable to the generic type of the reader, and
eliminating those that do not match.
The list of matching readers is then ordered with those with the best
matching values of Consumes
(x/y > x/* > */*)
sorted first. Finally, the
MessageBodyReader.isReadable(Class, Type, Annotation[], MediaType)
method is called on each reader in order using the supplied criteria and
the first reader that returns true
is selected and returned.T
- type of the the object that is to be read.type
- the class of the object that is to be read.genericType
- the type of object to be produced. E.g. if the
message body is to be converted into a method parameter, this will be
the formal type of the method parameter as returned by
Class.getGenericParameterTypes
.annotations
- an array of the annotations on the declaration of the
artifact that will be initialized with the produced instance. E.g. if
the message body is to be converted into a method parameter, this will
be the annotations on that parameter returned by
Class.getParameterAnnotations
.mediaType
- the media type of the data that will be read.null
if none is found.<T> MessageBodyWriter<T> getMessageBodyWriter(java.lang.Class<T> type, java.lang.reflect.Type genericType, java.lang.annotation.Annotation[] annotations, MediaType mediaType)

with the value of each writer's
Produces
, ensuring the supplied value of

is assignable to the generic type of the reader, and
eliminating those that do not match.
The list of matching writers is then ordered with those with the best
matching values of Produces

sorted first. Finally, the
MessageBodyWriter.isWriteable(Class, Type, Annotation[], MediaType)
method is called on each writer in order using the supplied criteria and
the first writer that returns true

- the class of the object that is to be written.genericType
- the type of object to be written. E.g. if the
message body is to be produced from a field, this will be
the declared type of the field as returned by Field.getGenericType
.annotations
- an array of the annotations on the declaration of the
artifact that will be written. E.g. if the
message body is to be produced from a field, this will be
the annotations on that field returned by
Field.getDeclaredAnnotations

mediaType
with the value of each resolver's
Produces
, ensuring the generic type of the context
resolver is assignable to the supplied value of contextType
, and
eliminating those that do not match. If only one resolver matches the
criteria then it is returned. If more than one resolver matches then the
list of matching resolvers is ordered with those with the best
matching values of Produces
(x/y > x/* > */*)
sorted first. A proxy is returned that delegates calls to
ContextResolver.getContext(java.lang.Class)
to each matching context
resolver in order and returns the first non-null value it obtains or null
if all matching context resolvers return null.T

if no matching
