Java.util.Map to JSON Object with Jersey / JAXB / Jackson

Question

I\'ve been trying to create a Jersey REST Webservice. I want to receive and emit JSON objects from Java classes like the following:

@XmlRootElement
public cl         


        

Answer 1

I don't know why this isn't the default setting, and it took me a while figuring it out, but if you want working JSON conversion with Jersey, add

    
        com.sun.jersey.api.json.POJOMappingFeature
        true
    

to your web.xml and all your problems should be solved.

PS: you also need to get rid of the @XmlRootElement annotations to make it work
