How to send POST requests using JaxRsClientResource

I am facing a problem to create a Restlet client using JAXRS annotated resource class.
Snippet from Resource:

    @POST
    @Path("/getLoginAppInfo")
    @Consumes("application/xml")
    @Produces("application/xml")
    public GetLoginAppInfoResponse getLoginAppInfo(
            GetLoginAppInfoRequest request);
    @POST
    @Path("/appLogin")
    @Consumes("application/xml")
    @Produces("application/xml")
    public AppLoginResponse appLogin(AppLoginRequest request);

On my restlet client, I am using this code:

IAppLoginResource resource = JaxRsClientResource.createJaxRsClient("http://localhost:9090/rest", IAppLoginResource.class);          
final GetLoginAppInfoResponse response = resource.getLoginAppInfo( getLoginAppInfoRequest );

When I check the issued HTTP call, it's of type GET.
How do I set the HTTP call to POST using JaxRsClientResource?
Any help (or snippet of code) would be highly appreciated.
NB: I took a look at this link Referring to this post here #1072 but it didnt help much.

I've tested your interface:

• by removing the consumes and produces annotations which are not taken into account by the jax-rs client, as I notice in the source code (this is an issue => JaxRs client does not leverages the @Consume and @Produces annotations. #1082),
• by adding a @path("/") annotation on the interface, otherwise I get an error message: The resource interface must have the JAX-RS path annotation.

and it works for me.

Hi Thierry,

Thank you very much for your help!
I do have the @path("/applogin") annotation already at the interface level, I removed the consume and produce as u suggested but still the HTTP request issued is of type GET.

Can you please share your working version, I might be missing something.

thanks
