Spring Rest Template and JSON data

I'm calling a 3rd party restful webservice that returns a complex JSON object. Is there a way for Spring or any open source tool to auto generate the client side code object.

In Soap, I'm use to doing wsdl2java in cxf but I don't know what the equivalent is in the restful space.

In the end I would like to use the rest template to make the following call: restTemplate.getForObject("url", generateObject.class)

For the same thing I used a framework called XStream (http://x-stream.github.io/). It's pretty light and will definately help you :)

Answer is yes as long as you have json schema for your input file. I dont remember at the moment how this framework is called but it is google product.

It auto generates Java class annotated with Json. It is really good. I will look for name.
