I use TomEE 7.0.1 with Jackson 2 as JAX-RS JSON provider (configured in openejb-jar.xml). Posting json to jax-rs services works perfectly well and uses the jackson annotations.
But using JAX-RS client (or cxf webclient) always uses Johnzon even if I provide Jackson to the Webclient.create method. After some debugging I am sure that TomEE adds Johnzon to the client factory somehow and no other message body parser for json can be used.
Is this a bug with the TomEE CXF integration or do I miss something?
Johnzon is registered on the bus by default to have a default JSON (mapping) and JSON-P provider. CXF is clever enough to make bus providers with a lower priority than applications ones (register() for client API) so if you call register you expect to use jackson...and still use johnzon - I suspect it is the case you hit.
That's perfectly normal and due to two things:
- JAX-RS specification priority definition
- Jackson Consumes/Produce definition
To summarize (1) says that more specific is the provider higher is its priority so an "application/json" provider will be priveledged in favor of a "/" one.
To avoid issues Johnzon uses "application/json". However jackson uses a custom matching strategy and therefore uses "/". So the bus priority is ignored since mediatype priority is enough to say johnzon is "more adapted" than jackson for json.
To solve it the easiest is likely to override jackson provider (just extend it) and decorate it with @Provides/@Consumes with MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON instead of wildcard one.
