Hey,
I'm trying to deserialize an XML object and use the JsonSubTypes and
JsonTypeInfo annotations to designate the root tag name as the field we use
to determine which sub type to deserialize to. For example:
Sample XMLs we'd like to deserialize:
<dog>
<name>alpine</name>
</dog>
<cat>
<name>wheezy</name>
</cat>
Our class definitions:
@JsonTypeInfo(
use = JsonTypeInfo.Id.NAME,
include = JsonTypeInfo.As.WRAPPER_OBJECT
)
@JsonSubTypes({
@JsonSubTypes.Type(value = Dog.class, name = Dog.TYPE),
@JsonSubTypes.Type(value = Cat.class, name = Cat.TYPE)
})
@FreeBuilder
@JsonDeserialize(builder = Animal.Builder.class)
public abstract class Animal {
@JsonIgnoreProperties(ignoreUnknown = true)
public static class Builder extends Animal_Builder {}
}
The issue right now is that it seems like Jackson is expecting a top level
tag, <animal>. Is there any way to use the root tag name as the subtype? It
seems like this other thread:
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!msg/jackson-user/CZxDOmVSjGk/TD7L2Rn3FQAJ
might suggest that this isn't possible with Jackson
Thanks,
Jason
