Resteasy Atom Links with Jackson instead of Jettison

Question

Due to other requirements we need to use Jackson for JSON serialization. Unfortunately Jackson does not support Atom Links with RESTServiceDiscovery as stated in the documentation. Has anyone already build a workaround for this? Or any idea why it is not working with Jackson and how to fix it?

Our current approach is to use XML as output and then use a javascript library to transform XML to JSON.

We were facing the same problem using JBossAS7. We ended switching from Jackson to Jettison by disabling Jackson in jboss-deployment-structure.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<jboss-deployment-structure>
    <deployment>
        <exclusions>
          <module name="org.jboss.resteasy.resteasy-jackson-provider" />
        </exclusions>
    </deployment>
</jboss-deployment-structure>

Unfortunately I need Jackson since Jettison does not support JSONP. – Leonard Brünings Dec 18 '13 at 14:52
@Leonard Brünings - You could always switch to Jettison and then handle wrapping/unwrapping your JSONP messages in a servlet filter. – gregwhitaker Dec 18 '13 at 15:22
