Is there a configuration to allow Jackson gracefully handle members discrepancy between member variable's type and that used in the getter/setter? For example, if a private variable is declared with type Long and its accessor methods are using type long, we have a problem. Also, we are dealing with code which cannot be changed:
For example, consider this class:
public class EventArgs {
private Long id;
private String message;
public String getMessage() {
return message;
}
public void setMessage(String message) {
this.message = message;
}
public long getId() {
return id;
}
public void setId(long id) {
this.id = id;
}
}
Consider the corresponding test:
@Test
public void shouldSerializeToString() {
ObjectMapper mapper = new ObjectMapper();
String value = null;
try {
value = mapper.writeValueAsString(new EventArgs());
} catch (JsonProcessingException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
Assert.assertNotNull(value);
}
The test fails with this exception:
