    Sure you can just set the mediaType to be application/xml just as you can for json or plain text. The first example is valid XML, second one is not. So the first one can be done.

    I am not sure what framework you are using. For example if you plan to use Spring you can take a look at an example here.

    The basic idea is that you define the media type to be application/xml . You can also specicfy a marshaller/unmarshaller (ie. using JAXB) if you want to marshal/unmarshal from a Java bean.
