How to make Resteasy 2.3.6 use Jackson 2.+

IS there a way to make RestEasy use Jackson 2+ ? It seems that RestEasy Jackson provider uses Jackson 1.9.9 and it's still a case for ResetEasy 3.

It occured to be quite simple. There are Jackson JAXRS providers in Jackson 2 already.

  • jackson-jaxrs-xml-provider
  • jackson-jaxrs-json-provider
  • jackson-jaxrs-smile-provider

So on the pom.xml

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.fasterxml.jackson.jaxrs</groupId>
    <artifactId>jackson-jaxrs-json-provider</artifactId>
    <version>2.2.2</version>
</dependency>

It's also good to exclude resteasy-jettison-provider to make sure you have no conflicts fo JSON handling.

Unfortunately, it isn't possible to use Jackson 2.x with RESTEasy 2.x because the integration of Jackson 1.x is fairly tight.

However, RESTEasy supports Jackson 2.x as of version 3.0-beta-5 - please see this issue for details or do a repository search if you're using Maven.
