Interface CatchAllResponseProcessor

All Superinterfaces:
ResponseProcessor
All Known Implementing Classes:
SerializedPojoProcessor
public interface CatchAllResponseProcessor extends ResponseProcessor
Marker interface for response processors that act as catch-alls — i.e. processors that accept any non-null return value when no more-specific processor matches.

During ResponseProcessorList construction, any processor implementing ViewRenderer is automatically repositioned to run before the first CatchAllResponseProcessor in the chain. This ensures that View-returning @RestOp methods reach the appropriate renderer rather than falling through to the catch-all serializer.

SerializedPojoProcessor is the canonical catch-all and implements this interface. Future catch-all processors should also implement this interface to preserve the ordering invariant for any registered ViewRenderer.
