Is it possible to receive form parameter as byte array with Jersey?
I tried the following:
@Path("/someMethod")
@POST
@Produces(MediaType.TEXT_HTML)
@Consumes(MediaType.APPLICATION_FORM_URLENCODED)
public String someMethod(@FormParam("someParam") byte[] someParam)
{
return "";
}
But got this error:
SEVERE: The following errors and warnings have been detected with resource and/or provider classes:
SEVERE: Missing dependency for method public java.lang.String SomeClass.someMethod开发者_如何转开发(byte[]) at parameter at index 0
SEVERE: Missing dependency for method public java.lang.String SomeClass.someMethod(byte[]) at parameter at index 0
SEVERE: Method, public java.lang.String SomeClass.someMethod(byte[]), annotated with POST of resource, class SomeClass, is not recognized as valid resource method.
If I change byte[] to String, everything works correctly.
The reason I need to receive data as byte[] and not as String is because data may be encoded using different charsets. It depends on the HTML document that submits data and I need to decode data correctly on server side (encoding charset is submitted in a separate parameter).
So, if I can receive data as byte[], it will solve my problem. Any other solutions are welcome as well.
Thank you!
If Jersey conforms to JAX-RS spec then the parameter may be
- A primitive type
- Have a constructor that accepts a single String argument
- Have a static method named valueOf that accepts a single String argument (see, for example, Integer.valueOf(String))
- List, Set or SortedSet, where T satisfies 2 or 3 above. The resulting collection is read-only.
as it is actually defined in the Jersey API.
If you want to use @FormParam the best you might be able to do define a ByteArray
-class that handles the errors caused by the String conversion and use it as the parameter type.
Thank you for your answers! I finally found a solution... Now that I see a solution, I understand that I didn't describe my problem well enough and it lead you to a different direction...
The problem was that I submit form data to the server from many different pages which use different encodings. When page uses utf-8 encoding, everything worked correctly but when page uses different encoding, special characters got lost.
The solution was to add accept-charset="utf-8"
to the <FORM> html element, which caused browser to always encode form data to utf-8 encoding, which solved encoding problem on the server side.
Thank you!
