Hi Francesco,

How do you use WebClient, let me know and I'll will check

Cheers, Sergey

Hi all,
I have a quite silly question, probably due to my inexperience with CXF.

Basically, in Syncope we have a set of CXF services producing both XML
and JSON (via Jackson).

At high level, I have troubles when reading JSON payload, via WebClient;
the same input string (received as Payload), when given to a bare
Jackson's ObjectMapper instance, works like a charm.

More in detail, the CXF service configuration is the one at [1].

When issuing, with header "Accept: application/json", an HTTP GET
/syncope/cxf/schemas/user/NORMAL/fullname (e.g. read() as defined at
[2]), it returns

{
   "name": "fullname",
   "type": "String",
   "mandatoryCondition": "true",
   "enumerationValues": null,
   "enumerationKeys": null,
   "multivalue": false,
   "uniqueConstraint": true,
   "readonly": false,
   "conversionPattern": null,
   "validatorClass": null
}

which looks correct; in fact I am easily able to deserialize such input via

         ObjectMapper mapper = new ObjectMapper();
         SchemaTO actual = mapper.readValue(writer.toString(),
SchemaTO.class);

but when I try to use WebClient for accessing the same read() method I
get stuck with

ClassCastException: java.util.LinkedHashMap cannot be cast to
org.apache.syncope.common.to.AbstractSchemaTO

which looks definitely like a Jackson exception.

For additional reference, here is my client's Spring configuration [3]
(see 'restClientFactory') and the AbstractSchemaTO [4] and SchemaTO
classes [5].

Nevertheless to say, switching to "Accept: application/xml" makes
everything work again.

I am using CXF 2.7.6-SNAPSHOT (this in order to be able to use Jackson
2.2.2).

Any hint?

Regards.
