Overview

This Jackson extension adds JSON reading/writing support for JAX-RS implementations like Jersey and RESTeasy. This is done by class JacksonJsonProvider implementing javax.ws.rs.ext.MessageBodyReader and javax.ws.rs.ext.MessageBodyWriter that JAX-RS defines for pluggable support for data formats. JacksonJsonProvider (and JacksonJaxbJsonProvider) can then be registered with JAX-RS container to make Jackson the standard JSON reader/writer provider.

Status

Module is fully usable, but since it was refactored as part of Jackson 2.0 project, it depends on Jackson 2.0 API. For previous (1.x) versions, use "Codehaus version".

<dependency>
