Force Jackson to add addional wrapping using annotations

Question

    public String getText() {
        return text;
    }

    public void setText(St         


        

Answer 1

Provided you don't mind the json having a capital m in message, then the simplest way to do this is to annotate your class with @JsonTypeInfo.

You would add:

@JsonTypeInfo(include=As.WRAPPER_OBJECT, use=Id.NAME)
public class Message {
  // ...
}

to get {"Message":{"text":"Text"}}
