I am trying to retrieve in my Jersey implementation resource class post collection of objects like this:
@POST
@Path("/send")
@Consumes({ MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON })
@Produces({ MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON })
public String sendEmails(ArrayList<AnyEmail> email) {
//emailManager.sendEmail(email);
return "success";
}
I have the @XmlRootElement
above `AnyEmail.
However when I post like this with REST client tool:
emails : [
{"body": "Testing the web service", "header": "Hi", "footer": "<br/>test"},
{"body": "Testing the web service", "header": "Hi", "footer": "<br/>test"}
]
I get:
<html><head><title>Apache Tomcat/7.0.22 - Error report</title><style><!--H1 {font-family:Tahoma,Arial,sans-serif;color:white;background-color:#525D76;font-size:22px;} H2 {font-family:Tahoma,Arial,sans-serif;color:white;background-color:#525D76;font-size:16px;} H3 {font-family:Tahoma,Arial,sans-serif;color:white;background-color:#525D76;font-size:14px;} BODY {font-family:Tahoma,Arial,sans-serif;color:black;background-color:white;} B {font-family:Tahoma,Arial,sans-serif;color:white;background-color:#525D76;} P {font-family:Tahoma,Arial,sans-serif;background:white;color:black;font-size:12px;}A {color : black;}A.name {color : black;}HR {color : #525D76;}--></style> </head><body><h1>HTTP Status 500 - </h1><HR size="1" noshade="noshade"><p><b>type</b> Exception report</p><p><b>message</b> <u></u></p><p><b>description</b> <u>The server encountered an internal error () that prevented it from fulfilling this request.</u></p><p><b>exception</b> <pre>javax.servlet.ServletException: Servlet execution threw an exception

EDITED
Now I tried:
"emails" : [
{"body": "Testing the web service", "header": "Hi", "footer": "<br/>test"},
{"body": "Testing the web service", "header": "Hi", "footer": "<br/>test"}
]
and I get:
SEVERE: Servlet.service() for servlet [Jersey Web Application] in context with path [/API] threw exception

This is what should work:
Also, you may want to use the POJO approach, which is the preferred one for JSON - see here: https://jersey.java.net/documentation/1.18/json.html
The JSON support based on JAXB has various issues with some edge cases, since there isn't a 1:1 mapping between XML (JAXB as designed for) and JSON.
I am using Jersey 1.17 and can receive list of JSON objects with the following signature and cast them into list of my POJO Objects with Google's gson library, without any issue. Using wrapper to wrap list of POJO objects, is certainly un-natural and not favourable.
I had the same problem. You have to wrap the AnyEmail class.
This can help you: https://blogs.oracle.com/japod/entry/missing_brackets_at_json_one
I'm neither a Jersey nor Json expert, but did you try using a full JSON object, ie :
(added braces, and quotes to emails).
Why you don't use a simple Java array???
And then the following method:
That should do the trick...
// Client
//ClientService
//JerseyClient
//POM.xml
