How do I enable gzip for restcontroller?

See English answers > using gzip compression with spring boot / MVC / javaconfig with restful 8

@RestController
public class MyRest {
    @RequestMapping(method = RequestMethod.GET,produces = MediaType.APPLICATION_XML_VALUE)
    @ResponseBody
    public ComplexRsp test() {
        //...
    }
}

When using soap WSDL method, there will be a simple @ gzip annotation on the service class How do you achieve the same goal for rest?
