Hello,

A couple of days ago I ran into a problem with throwing WebApplication examples with a response object:

throw new WebApplicationException(Response.status(412)
.type("text/plain;charset=utf-8")
.entity("Something went wrong").build());

Throwing this exception would give a text/plain body with the entity body but with http code 200. Throwing the same exception without an entity would give the expected (412 response with an empty body).

After a little code browsing I found the problem in Dispatcher.java invoke method. I created a patch file from revision 133 attached to this email.

Regards,

Thomas Cremers
