Question

I am new to Resteasy, I am calling a service and getting the response successfully. I am able to print the response as well (which is the expected response).
ClientResponse<String> response= clientRequest.post(String.class);
System.out.println("response"+response.getEntity());

Console output is: response{"id":8,"displayName":"xyz_abc","roles":null, .....

But now I want to parse/map the response that I get from the service to a business object (like a User.java pojo) in client side application. I tried going through the docs but couldn’t comprehend much. I tried googling, again not much help there. Please help me achieve this.

Thanks

Finally found the answer,

ClientResponse<String> response= clientRequest.post(String.class);

Gson gson = new Gson();
User user = gson.fromJson(response.getEntity(), User.class);

This solved my problem.
