Suggestion: ResourceDescriptor.getResourceType()

[developerdude]

 should not return a fully qualified class/field name.

For example, in a test, before I call a webservice I set the resource type in the ResourceDescriptor I am sending to the web service using the constant static filed ResourceDescriptor.TYPE_CONTENT_RESOURCE which evaluates to "contentResource".

The web service returns a ResourceDescriptor with its resource type set to "com.jaspersoft.jasperserver.api.metadata.common.domain.ContentResource"

Not the same string. If, as I do, I have an assert on the return type to match what I asked for, it fails (unless I parse the string or call contains()).

Suggestion: either use Java 5+ enums (preferable) or be consistent with the strings used as params and return values when describing the same value.

It will make our life easier.

Thanks.
