Chapter 17. JAXB Providers

RESTEasy includes support for marshalling and unmarshalling JAXB annotated classes. Multiple JAXB Providers are included with RESTEasy to address the subtle differences between classes generated by XJC and classes that are annotated with @XmlRootElement, or work with JAXBElement classes directly.
When using the JAX-RS API in development, the provider to be invoked is selected transparently. This chapter describes the providers best-suited for a variety of configurations if you want to access the providers directly.
RESTEasy selects a JAXB Provider when a parameter type (return type) is an object annotated with JAXB annotations (for example, @XmlRootEntity or @XmlType), or a JAXBElement. The resource class (resource method) will be annotated with either @Consumes or @Produces, and contain one or more of the following values:
  • text/*+xml
  • application/*+xml
  • application/*+fastinfoset
  • application/*+json
RESTEasy selects different providers based on the return type used in the resource. This section decribes the workings of the selection process.
Classes annotated with @XmlRootElement are handled with the JAXBXmlRootElementProvider. This provider handles basic marshalling and unmarshalling of custom JAXB entities.
Classes that are generated by XJC do not usually contain an @XmlRootElement annotation. To be marshalled, they must be wrapped in an instance of JAXBElement. This usually involves invoking a method named ObjectFactory on the class, which serves as the XmlRegistry.
The JAXBXmlTypeProvider provider is selected when the class is annotated with an XmlType annotation and not an XmlRootElement annotation. The provider attempts to locate the XmlRegistry for the target class. By default, a JAXB implementation creates a class called ObjectFactory and is located in the same package as the target class. ObjectFactory contains a create method that takes the object instance as a parameter. For example, if the target type is called Contact, then the ObjectFactory class will have a method: 
      public JAXBElement createContact(Contact value) {..

If your resource works with the JAXBElement class directly, the RESTEasy runtime will select the JAXBElementProvider. This provider examines the ParameterizedType value of the JAXBElement in order to select the appropriate JAXBContext.

17.1. JAXB Decorators

RESTEasy's JAXB providers can decorate Marshaller and Unmarshaller instances. Add an annotation that triggers the decoration Marshaller or Unmarshaller. The decorators can perform tasks such as setting Marshaller or Unmarshaller properties and setting up validation.
As an example, say you want to create an annotation that will trigger pretty-printing of an XML document. In raw JAXB, we would set a property on the Marshaller of Marshaller.JAXB_FORMATTED_OUTPUT. Instead, let us write a Marshaller decorator.
First, define an annotation: 
 import org.jboss.resteasy.annotations.Decorator;

 @Target({ElementType.TYPE, ElementType.METHOD, ElementType.PARAMETER, ElementType.FIELD})
 @Retention(RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME)
 @Decorator(processor = PrettyProcessor.class, target = Marshaller.class)
 public @interface Pretty {}

For this to work, you must annotate the @Pretty annotation with a meta-annotation named @Decorator. The target() attribute must be the JAXB Marshaller class. Next, we will write the processor() attribute class. 
 import org.jboss.resteasy.core.interception.DecoratorProcessor;
 import org.jboss.resteasy.annotations.DecorateTypes;

 import javax.xml.bind.Marshaller;
 import javax.xml.bind.PropertyException;
 import javax.ws.rs.core.MediaType;
 import javax.ws.rs.Produces;
 import java.lang.annotation.Annotation;

  */
 @DecorateTypes({"text/*+xml", "application/*+xml"})
 public class PrettyProcessor implements DecoratorProcessor<Marshaller, Pretty>
 {
    public Marshaller decorate(Marshaller target, Pretty annotation,
                  Class type, Annotation[] annotations, MediaType mediaType)
    {
       target.setProperty(Marshaller.JAXB_FORMATTED_OUTPUT, Boolean.TRUE);
    }
 }

The processor implementation must implement the DecoratorProcessor interface, and should also be annotated with @DecorateTypes. This annotation specifies the media types that the processor can work with.
Now that we have defined our annotation and our Processor, we can use it on our JAX-RS resource methods or JAXB types like so: 
   @GET
   @Pretty
   @Produces("application/xml")
   public SomeJAXBObject get() {...}
