Issue with Dropwizard example

[med1985]

For some reason I keep getting the exception below when trying to use JSOG with dropwizard:

com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.exc.UnrecognizedPropertyException: Unrecognized field "@ref"

I've tried to debug why and can't figure it out, I'll continue this weekend. It stops throwing exceptions when you set:

environment.getObjectMapper().configure(DeserializationFeature.FAIL_ON_UNKNOWN_PROPERTIES, false);

But that obviously doesn't solve the problem. I tried it with the current dropwizard example Master (and v0.8.0) and made the following amendments:

(object with reference to itself)
@JsonIdentityInfo(generator=JSOGGenerator.class)
public class Person {
@id
@GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.IDENTITY)
private long id;

@Column(name = "fullName", nullable = false)
private String fullName;

@Column(name = "jobTitle", nullable = false)
private String jobTitle;
@JoinColumn @OneToOne
private Person brother;

...

Then in the test:

@Test
public void testHelloWorld() throws Exception {
    Client client = ClientBuilder.newClient().register(new LoggingFilter(java.util.logging.Logger.getLogger("test"), true));
    WebTarget target = client.target("http://localhost:8080/people");

    Person person = new Person();
    person.setFullName("blah");
    Person brother = new Person();
    person.setFullName("brother");
    brother.setBrother(person);
    person.setBrother(brother);

    target.request().post(Entity.entity(person, MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON_TYPE));

}

You can see it's sending the correct JSOG-ed JSON object but if you set logging to debug you can see the exception I'm talking about.

Let me know if you want me to send you a zip of the files or anything.

The problem seems to be that the "else" in this if block is never reached for some reason, investigation continues...

@Override
public JSOGRef deserialize(JsonParser jp, DeserializationContext ctx) throws IOException, JsonProcessingException {
    JsonNode node = jp.readValueAsTree();
    if (node.isTextual()) {
        return new JSOGRef(node.asText());
    } else {
        return new JSOGRef(node.get(JSOGRef.REF_KEY).asText());
    }
}

It might be good to include which version of dropwizard you are using.

I am having the same Issue as of dropwizard 1.3.5. It seems to be an issue with the Jackson Afterburner Module used by Dropwizard. There already is an issue for that.

This seems to have been resolved in jackson.
