Spring+GWT+jackson+JSON response text does not appear to be in standard response format

问题

Hi it's in relation to below post -

smartgwt listgrid RestDataSource not populating

I am facing an issue while trying to build an app with smartGWT and Spring3. Using jackson to convert return object to json.

Error (complete stack trace at end of the post) for json response returned from spring controller to client side:

16:52:27.094 [ERROR] [utilapp] 16:52:27.092:TMR1:WARN:RestDataSource:isc_ItemListGrid_1_0:RestDataSouce transformResponse(): JSON response text does not appear to be in standard response format. com.smartgwt.client.core.JsObject$SGWT_WARN: 16:52:27.092:TMR1:WARN:RestDataSource:isc_ItemListGrid_1_0:RestDataSouce transformResponse(): JSON response text does not appear to be in standard response format.

Just wondering if anyone else has encountered such error before or any hints on what may be the reason behind this will be very useful.

Json response payload on hitting corresponding GET method url directly from browser - {"status":0,"data":null,"errors":{},"endRow":0,"startRow":0,"totalRows":-1}

All fields have default values, although setting these within controller.

Have defined DSResponse POJO to bring json response in sync with what described on link - http://www.smartclient.com/smartgwt/javadoc/com/smartgwt/client/data/RestDataSource.html

Spring controller on server side–

       @RequestMapping(value="/fetch", method=RequestMethod.POST)
       public @ResponseBody DSResponse fetch(@RequestBody String json){

              Account account;

              for(int i = 0 ; i < 500 ; i++){
                     account = new Account();
                     account.setAccountId(i * 100L);

                  accounts.add(account);
              }
              dsResponse.setDate(accounts.toArray());

              return response;
       }

       @RequestMapping(value="/get", method=RequestMethod.GET)

回答1:

Well you have no data in your response according to your comment. Does your response match exactly the format specified here?

I suggest it may not match, given your error message is

JSON response text does not appear to be in standard response format

What to do next? Maybe try converting some really simple object to JSON to see if the problem lies with your Account object? Try it with just one Account object in the response? Or post your Account object code?

回答2:

sorted it out by defining a simple java object (used as return type of Spring controller) implementing Serializable interface with a variable named 'response' of type Map and added contents of the json response to that map as key-value paired and it worked.

thanks
