Hi,

Trying to migrate an application to 3.0 branch. Everything builds OK and deploys to jboss 7.1.4 OK. When I try to save a new entity I get an error as follows:

HTTP Status 400 -

org.codehaus.jackson.map.exc.UnrecognizedPropertyException: Unrecognized field "^EncodedType" (Class org.pronoiahealth.obpgui.client.shared.vo.User), not marked as ignorable
at [Source: org.apache.catalina.connector.CoyoteInputStream@6dc37afe; line: 1, column: 18] (through reference chain: org.pronoiahealth.obpgui.client.shared.vo.User[&quot;^EncodedType&quot;])</h1><HR size="1" noshade="noshade"><p><b>type</b> Status report</p><p><b>message</b> <u>org.codehaus.jackson.map.exc.UnrecognizedPropertyException: Unrecognized field &quot;^EncodedType&quot; (Class org.pronoiahealth.obpgui.client.shared.vo.User), not marked as ignorable

The json for to object being saved is :

{"^EncodedType":"org.pronoiahealth.obpgui.client.shared.vo.User","^ObjectID":"1","id" : null,"opVer" : null,"firstName" : "A","lastName" : "DDDDDD","userId" : "ajdestef","resetPwd" : true,"pwdDigest" : null,"pwdSalt" : null}

The ^EncodedType and ^ObjectID are things being added by the Errai framework?

This call is being made using thr REST framework in Errai. This looks similar to something I've seen using RestEasy before. In that case I built a custom context resolver:

@Provider

@Consumes({ "application/*+json", "text/json" })

@Produces({ "application/*+json", "text/json" })

public class JacksonConfigurator implements ContextResolver<ObjectMapper> {

.............

ObjectMapper objectMapper = getObjectMapper();
objectMapper.configure(DeserializationFeature.FAIL_ON_UNKNOWN_PROPERTIES, false);

}

and was able to override the object mappers default behavior.

The application works fine on the 2.2.1-SNAPSHOT branch.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
