How to serialize this class using Jackson
package com.progressivebeef.service.response;
@XmlRootElement(name = "response")
@XmlSeeAlso({ User.class, Profile.class,MenuItem.class,Feedlot.class,Document.class,FeedlotDocument.class })
public final class PBResponse {
private Integer status = FAILURE;
private String code;
private String message;
private Integer totalRecords;
private List<Model> list = new ArrayList<Model>();
public Integer getStatus() {
return status;
}
public void setStatus(Integer status) {
this.status = status;
}
@XmlElementWrapper(name = "PBBeans")
@XmlAnyElement
public List<Model> getList() {
return list;
}
public void setList(List<Model> list) {
this.list = list;
}
public String getCode() {
return code;
}
public void setCode(String code) {
this.code = code;
}
public String getMessage() {
return message;
}
public void setMessage(String message) {
this.message = message;
}
public Integer getTotalRecords() {
return totalRecords;
}
public void setTotalRecords(Integer totalRecords) {
this.totalRecords = totalRecords;
}
/**
* @author tiqbal
* Resets the response.
*/
public void reset(){
this.status = FAILURE;
this.list = new ArrayList<Model>();
this.code = null;
this.message = null;
this.totalRecords = null;
}
}
Jackson is not picking up @XmlElementWrapper @XmlSeeAlso annotations, also Jackson is not mapping @XmlRootElement annotation. I am using Jackson 1.9.0. Jackson is putting elements in the list but not mapping root element of POJO classes.
Here is sample method.
package com.progressivebeef.service.impl;
@Service("/ActivityServiceImpl/")
@Path("/activityservice/")
public class ActivityServiceImpl implements ActivityService {
@POST
@Produces(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)
@Override
public Response inputJson(User user ) {
System.out.println("user ");
user.setUser_name("check user name");
Profile profile = new Profile();
profile.setFirst_name("abc");
profile.setLast_name("khan");
user.setProfile( profile );
PBResponse response = new PBResponse();
response.getList().add(user);
return Response.ok(response).build();
}
}
The response it generating is '{"response":{"status":0,"PBBeans":[{"user_name":"check user name","password":"click123","user_role_key":2,"profile":{"first_name":"abc","last_name":"khan","tableName":"pb_profile","pk":"profile_id"},"tableName":"pb_user","pk":"user_id"}]}}'
not picking up the bean's root name inside PBBeans tag.
