Dynamic polymorphic type handling with Jackson

Question

I have a class hierarchy similar to this one:

public static class BaseConfiguration {
}

public abstract class Base {
  private BaseConfiguration configurati         


        

Answer 1

Apparently the answer was to implement something similar to the sixth solution posted at http://programmerbruce.blogspot.com/2011/05/deserialize-json-with-jackson-into.html, which uses unique JSON element names to identify the target type to deserialize to.
