I have a issue where, I have a converter class say called aConverter as such:
@XmlRootElement(name = "aConverter")
public class aConverter implements ConverterBase{
private A a;
private Set<B> bs;
/// some constructor code here
...
@XmlElement(name="B")
public Set<B> getBs() {
bs = a.getBs();
return bs;
}
public void setBs(Set<B> bs) {
a.setBs(bs);
}
}
Class A and B are defined respectively in a cyclic fashion:
public class A {
private Set <B> bs;
//constructor code here
...
public Set<B> getBs() {
return this.bs;
}
public void setBs(Set<B> bs) {
this.bs = bs;
}
}
>
public class B {
private A a;
// some constructor code here
...
public A getA() {
return this.a;
}
public void setA(A a) {
this.a = a;
}
}
Now, when I the webservice I'm seeing the following error:

I'm really out of ideas here, any feeback on this would be really nice.
Cheers!
