Hello Romain, I believe I have understood that "JSON serialization is NOT in EE 7". This is why I said: " the behavior of the readFrom is not really described" in JAX-RS 2.0.
BTW, I have read some parts of the current JSON-B specification and, according to me, this is not quite clear (eg the spec is ambiguous) Indeed: - in § 3.2, it is stated " Implementations SHOULD also report an error during a deserialization operation, if it is not possible to represent a JSON document value with the expected Java type." - in § 3.7.1, it is stated "If a JSON document contains a name/value pair not corresponding to field or setter method, then this name/value pair MUST be ignored. " So, according to what it is written above, what is the right behavior ? - report an error because it is not possible to "represent a JSON document value with the expected Java type" during deserialization ? - to ignore a JSON name/value pair if this one doesn't correspond to a field or setter method ?

JAX-RS supports JSON, XML, binary protocols etc... so it doesn't own anything but a word saying "we integrate with this other spec". An example on another layer is: it doesn't define how bean validation works but only that it works on some JAX-RS components/parts. The JSON serialization is NOT in EE 7 and therefore fully vendor specific for now. JSON-B default is to ignore unknown fields (as in I-JSON spec IIRC) whereas Jackson chose to fail on them. Both defaults can make sense so I guess you just have to know which one you use and adapt. Agree that JSON-B/Johnzon one makes more sense when you use a js front which can leak some attributes ;).
