If I understand you correctly, I added the "extraClass" property to my JSON
provider, and the two beans now look like the following. Unfortunately, this
didn't help. XML output works fine, JSON gets the error.
<bean id="jaxbElementProvider"
class="org.apache.cxf.jaxrs.provider.JAXBElementProvider"
p:singleJaxbContext="true">
<property name="extraClass">
<list>
<value>....Foo</value>
<value>...OtherFoo</value>
<value>...AnotherFoo</value>
</list>
</property>
</bean>
<bean id="jsonProvider" class="org.apache.cxf.jaxrs.provider.JSONProvider">
<property name="serializeAsArray" value="true"/>
<property name="arrayKeys">
<list>
<value>...</value>
<value>...</value>
...
</list>
</property>
<property name="namespaceMap">
<map>
<entry key=".../schema/fooSchema/v1.0" value="sl"/>
<entry key=".../schema/otherFooSchema/v1.0" value="sar"/>
<entry key=".../schema/anotherFooSchema/v1.0" value="dss"/>
</map>
</property>
<property name="extraClass">
<list>
<value>....Foo</value>
<value>...OtherFoo</value>
<value>...AnotherFoo</value>
</list>
</property>
</bean>
