Fixed In Version: Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
In previous versions of JBoss EAP 6, it was found that RESTEasy, while adhering to specification RFC 2616, did not always return the most appropriate media handler in instances where specificity and quality factors were equal. For instance, when given an Accept header of 'application/json, */*' and variant values of '["application/xml","application/json"]', RESTEasy's 'Request.selectVariant()' would choose 'application/xml' over 'application/json'.

Marking bug for exclusion from 6.2.3 Release Notes document pending provision of the information requested.

Comment 6 Pavel Janousek 2014-05-23 08:11:49 UTC
If we remove word 'Fix:' I think the DocText is valuable for our customer. This is change of RESTEasy behavior and they should be notified about that change.
