Spring Data Rest 2.0.0 - @RestResource (exported=false) doesn't work for properties

I'm trying to avoid showing a couple fields in the content of the JSON response using spring-data-rest. The annotation @RestResource(exported = false) is not working for a property in an Entity class. It could be a similar issue to the one reported in: Property reference mapping in Spring Data Rest 2.0.0

In my case I have the next two properties:

@RestResource(exported = false)
private byte[] image;
@RestResource(exported = false)
private Date updateTime;

The annotation is not working. I also tried the next approach without success:

@Override
protected void configureRepositoryRestConfiguration(RepositoryRestConfiguration config) {    
config.setResourceMappingForDomainType(MyClass.class)
                .addResourceMappingFor("updateTime")
                .setExported(false);
}

Looking at the spring-data-rest current code in github makes me think that any metadata (annotation) to set the content for the JSON objects is never used. I appreciate your help with this issue. Maybe is there a different way to do it in the current 2.0.0 versions?

It should be fixed in the next release as this issue report says.

If you are using latests snapshot the following should work

@JsonIgnore
private byte[] image;

@JsonIgnore
private Date updateTime;

By the way, @RestResource is a class and method annotation and is tell SDR if you like to expose those classes or methods through SDR

For controlling serialization of domain object use jackson annotation @JsonIgnore
