Forcing CXF gzip compression

[nickarls]

Hi,

I have a problem with a large WS-request that I can't get to gzip compress. My endpoint has

@Stateless

@WebService

@GZIP(force = true)

// also tried these below

// @InInterceptors(interceptors = "org.apache.cxf.transport.common.gzip.GZIPInInterceptor")

// @OutInterceptors(interceptors = "org.apache.cxf.transport.common.gzip.GZIPOutInterceptor")

@EndpointProperty(key = "org.apache.cxf.stax.maxChildElements", value = { "200000" })

and my dynamic client init looks something like

      Service service = Service.create(...);

      client = service.getPort(MyClient.class);

      Client clientProxy = ClientProxy.getClient(client);

      clientProxy.getInInterceptors().add(new GZIPInInterceptor());

      clientProxy.getOutInterceptors().add(new GZIPOutInterceptor(0));

      HTTPConduit conduit = (HTTPConduit) clientProxy.getConduit();

      HTTPClientPolicy policy = new HTTPClientPolicy();

      policy.setConnectionTimeout(...);

      policy.setReceiveTimeout(...);

      conduit.setClient(policy);

but my request still hits my undertow 100M(!) limit. Which shouldn't be possible if gzip was really in use.

Help would be appriciated! Is palin still the local wizard? ;-)

If nothing else you could configure gzip filter in undertow subsystem for this exact url.

Hmm. Would it help for the maximum request size exceeded (I assume it is counted after the decompression has been done). And the large amount of data would still be sent over the net since the client (apparently) isn't compressing the data?
