Spring 3.0 making JSON response using jackson message converter

Question

i configure my messageconverter as Jackson\'s then

class Foo{int x; int y}

and in controller

@ResponseBody
public Foo metho         


        

Answer 1

The MessageConverter interface http://static.springsource.org/spring/docs/3.0.x/javadoc-api/ defines a getSupportedMediaTypes() method, which in case of the MappingJacksonMessageCoverter returns application/json

public MappingJacksonHttpMessageConverter() {
    super(new MediaType("application", "json", DEFAULT_CHARSET));
}

I assume a Accept: application/json request header is missing.
