public class MappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter
extends AbstractJackson2HttpMessageConverter

Implementation of HttpMessageConverter that can read and write JSON using Jackson 2.x's ObjectMapper.

This converter can be used to bind to typed beans, or untyped HashMap instances.

By default, this converter supports application/json and application/*+json with UTF-8 character set. This can be overridden by setting the supportedMediaTypes property.

The default constructor uses the default configuration provided by Jackson2ObjectMapperBuilder.

Compatible with Jackson 2.1 and higher.

Since:

3.1.2

Constructor Detail

MappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter

public MappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter()

Construct a new MappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter using default configuration provided by Jackson2ObjectMapperBuilder.

MappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter

public MappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter(ObjectMapper objectMapper)

Construct a new MappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter with a custom ObjectMapper. You can use Jackson2ObjectMapperBuilder to build it easily.

See Also:

Jackson2ObjectMapperBuilder.json()

Method Detail

setJsonPrefix

public void setJsonPrefix(String jsonPrefix)

Specify a custom prefix to use for this view's JSON output. Default is none.

See Also:

setPrefixJson(boolean)

setPrefixJson

public void setPrefixJson(boolean prefixJson)

Indicate whether the JSON output by this view should be prefixed with ")]}', ". Default is false.

Prefixing the JSON string in this manner is used to help prevent JSON Hijacking. The prefix renders the string syntactically invalid as a script so that it cannot be hijacked. This prefix should be stripped before parsing the string as JSON.

setJsonPrefix(java.lang.String)

writePrefix

protected void writePrefix(JsonGenerator generator,
                           Object object)
                    throws IOException

Description copied from class: AbstractJackson2HttpMessageConverter

Write a prefix before the main content.

Overrides:

writePrefix in class AbstractJackson2HttpMessageConverter

Parameters:

generator - the generator to use for writing content.

IOException

writeSuffix

protected void writeSuffix(JsonGenerator generator,
                           Object object)
                    throws IOException

Description copied from class: AbstractJackson2HttpMessageConverter

Write a suffix after the main content.

Overrides:

writeSuffix in class AbstractJackson2HttpMessageConverter

Parameters:

generator - the generator to use for writing content.

object - the object to write to the output message.

Throws:
