Class EncodingFilter

java.lang.Object
org.glassfish.jersey.server.filter.EncodingFilter
All Implemented Interfaces:
ContainerResponseFilter

@Priority(3000) public final class EncodingFilter extends Object implements ContainerResponseFilter
Container filter that supports encoding-based content negotiation. The filter examines what content encodings are supported by the container (by looking up all the encoders) and decides what encoding should be chosen based on the encodings listed in the Accept-Encoding request header and their associated quality values. If none of the acceptable encodings is supported and identity encoding is explicitly forbidden by the client, the filter generates Response.Status.NOT_ACCEPTABLE response.

The filter also ensures Accept-Encoding is added to the Vary header, for proper interaction with web caches.
