public static final class JResponse.JResponseBuilder<E>
extends JResponse.AJResponseBuilder<E,JResponse.JResponseBuilder<E>>

A class used to build JResponse instances that contain metadata instead of or in addition to an entity. An initial instance may be obtained via static methods of the JResponse class, instance methods provide the ability to set metadata. E.g. to create a response that indicates the creation of a new resource:

@POST
 JResponse addWidget(...) {
   Widget w = ...
   URI widgetId = UriBuilder.fromResource(Widget.class)...
   return JResponse.created(widgetId).build();
 }

Several methods have parameters of type URI, UriBuilder provides convenient methods to create such values as does URI.create().

Where multiple variants of the same method are provided, the type of the supplied parameter is retained in the metadata of the built JResponse.
