Constructor Detail

NullResponse

public NullResponse()
Create a NullResponse without a prior request. This is just used as filler without being forwarded to any requester. It circumvents the problem that Jersey has a problem when a REST service (aka resource) method expecting an entity should be called without one.


NullResponse

public NullResponse(Request request)
Create a NullResponse as answer to a prior request. It is processed like any other response, i.e. forwarded to the requester, but finally translated to null (org.cumulus4j.store.crypto.keymanager.messagebroker.MessageBroker.query(Class, Request) never returns a NullResponse instance; instead it returns null).

Parameters:
request - the request that is answered by this new NullResponse instance.
