To add one, we must do: `restClient.getRestTemplate().getMessageConverters().add(new MappingJacksonHttpMessageConverter());`\n\nWe should provide a new annotation (or a new attribute) to let users specify the MessageConverters.\n\n``` java\n@Rest \n@Converters({MappingJacksonHttpMessageConverter.class, XmlAwareFormHttpMessageConverter.class})\npublic interface RestClient {\n}\n```\n\nWe should check that they have a default constructor. We could also allow classes annotated with `@EBean`, but I'm not sure this would provide much added value for now.\n","author":{"url":"https://github.com/pyricau","@type":"Person","name":"pyricau"},"datePublished":"2012-05-25T17:07:09.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":4},"url":"https://github.com/206/androidannotations/issues/206"}
