[GSS][6.4.z]REST API different output when using JDK 1.8

    XMLWordPrintable

Details

    • Bug
    • Resolution: Done
    • Major
    • 6.4.1
    • 6.3.3.GA
    • Business Central
      • JDK 1.8
    • CR1
    • Workaround Exists
    • Hide

      My research so far on this issue makes me think that this is related to the Jackson JAXB support. For some reason the JAXB annotations works for JDK 1.8 and they are recognized. Jackson has this JAXB annotation introspector that due this change makes it work on JDK 1.8. Hence prevent this "annotation introspector" registration would solve this:

      • One way to prevent it from being registered is create a custom ObjectMapper (entry point to configure Jackson/JSON resteasy output) in RESTeasy. To do this we create a JAR with a simply ObjectMapper:
        import javax.ws.rs.Consumes;
        import javax.ws.rs.Produces;
        import javax.ws.rs.core.MediaType;
        import javax.ws.rs.ext.ContextResolver;
        import javax.ws.rs.ext.Provider;
        import org.codehaus.jackson.map.ObjectMapper;
        
        @Provider
        @Produces(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)
        @Consumes(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)
        public class CustomObjectMapper implements ContextResolver<ObjectMapper> {
        
                private final ObjectMapper objectMapper;
        
                public CustomObjectMapper() {
                        System.out.println("== Creating Custom Object Mapper ==");
                        objectMapper = new ObjectMapper();
                }
        
                public ObjectMapper getContext(Class<?> type) {
                        return objectMapper;
                }
        }
        
      • Another solution is simply remove the `jackson-jaxrs- {version}

        .jar` from `business-central.war/WEB-INF/lib` because in this jackson jaxrs is the JAXB annotation introspector registration.

    Description

      Some REST API JSON outputs in BPM Suite 6.3.3 contains hyphens in the attribute name. This only happen when we use the JDK 1.8.

      For example, the field `activationTime` in JDK 1.7 becomes `activation-time` with JDK 1.8.

      The problem is that it breaks the REST clients that were supposed to work.
