Description
Expected Behaviour
Ability to provide byte[] as response body in handler
Current Behaviour
In java12 template, you can't provide byte[] as response. You need to convert it to string in handler and in app.java it is again converted to byte[]. In result it gets corrupted. In our use case (generating pdf using JasperReports) we received blank PDFs
Possible Solution
Another template "Java12Byte" or changes to Java12
As workaround
(1) did custom template
(2 alternative ) encoded byte[] with base64 and decoded in client (unnecessary step)
Context
Some software eg JasperReports provides byte[] or outputstreams and they cannot be converted to String because they are getting corrupted (lost 2 workdays trying to understand cause).
I tried to use different encoding but it is not working. According to response in: https://community.jaspersoft.com/questions/976061/pdf-byte-array-encoding
it will not work.
