I want to return response in XML form from REST API in java -

i have rest api in java take image file , save on server want return path of uploaded image in xml form don't know how it.currently returns response string in browser.

here code.

package com.javacodegeeks.enterprise.rest.jersey;  import java.io.file; import java.io.fileoutputstream; import java.io.ioexception; import java.io.inputstream; import java.io.outputstream; import javax.ws.rs.consumes; import javax.ws.rs.post; import javax.ws.rs.path; import javax.ws.rs.core.mediatype; import javax.ws.rs.core.response; import com.sun.jersey.core.header.formdatacontentdisposition; import com.sun.jersey.multipart.formdataparam;  @path("/files") public class jerseyfileupload {      private static final string server_upload_location_folder = "/home/hassan/downloads/";      /**      * upload file      */      @post     @path("/upload")     @consumes(mediatype.multipart_form_data)     public response uploadfile(             @formdataparam("file") inputstream fileinputstream,             @formdataparam("file") formdatacontentdisposition contentdispositionheader) {          string filepath = server_upload_location_folder + contentdispositionheader.getfilename();          // save file server         savefile(fileinputstream, filepath);          string output = "file saved server location : " + filepath;          return response.status(200).entity(output).build();      }      // save uploaded file defined location on server     private void savefile(inputstream uploadedinputstream,             string serverlocation) {          try {             outputstream outpustream = new fileoutputstream(new file(serverlocation));             int read = 0;             byte[] bytes = new byte[1024];              outpustream = new fileoutputstream(new file(serverlocation));             while ((read = uploadedinputstream.read(bytes)) != -1) {                 outpustream.write(bytes, 0, read);             }             outpustream.flush();             outpustream.close();         } catch (ioexception e) {              e.printstacktrace();         }      }  } 

if want return xml rest, try create object fields. , object , field have @xmlrootelement @xmlelement , put @produces("application/xml") on top of method signature.

    @post     @path("/upload")     @consumes(mediatype.multipart_form_data)     @produces("application/xml")     public response uploadfile(...){          //body    } 

also can use @produces(mediatype.application_xml) instead of @produces("application/xml"). both same.
