What is the suggested pattern to prevent invalid objects being received?  I
assume that the default constructor is called followed by setters on the
object?

If you use CXF JSONProvider then you can pass it a list of XSD schema locations (schemaLocations property), this works because the actual object population is driven by JAXB. Or you can register a custom XMLStreamReader too and do the custom validation of the data reported by Jettison, I can provider more info if your are interested.

You can also register a custom MessageBodyReader which simply delegates to your chosen JSON provider (Jackson, etc), and validates the object in its readFrom method, after the actual provider creates it
