How to serialize Java primitives using Jersey REST
- by Olvagor
In my application I use Jersey REST to serialize complex objects. This works quite fine. But there are a few method which simply return an int or boolean.
Jersey can't handle primitive types (to my knowledge), probably because they're no annotated and Jersey has no default annotation for them. I worked around that by creating complex types like a RestBoolean or RestInteger, which simply hold an int or boolean value and have the appropriate annotations.
Isn't there an easier way than writing these container objects?
