Spring MVC Tutorials 39 - Web Services 09 ( @RequestMapping using produces )

in this tutorial, we will learn how to make use of an argument 'produces' with the @RequestMapping annotation over a REST API so as to restrict that REST API controller method to support only one kind of format while producing the response for a request.

in the next tutorial, we will learn how to make a http PUT type of request on the REST API as well as the use of @RequestBody annotation. Happy learning...

Hi Gorav,
If we consider the MediaType class for the Produces property from "org.springframework.http" the package, the IDE is showing a conflict error as "The import collides with another import statement". So, to fix that, we have to use the fully qualified path.

Your explanations and teaching techniques are awsome sir ...but please specify version because from starting of this webservices topic no json response and 404 error...

So basically the request handler method is generating/producing the data in xml or json format, right?

[lifeworkofdr.dhulipala]

Restricting rest API to one specific format cannot be done just by not adding required jars. Like if we want to restrict to json alone, not adding XML related jars to classpath will not suffice?
