Sorry no, it is simpler than that.
I have a simple Value Object and I want a toString method that would
return a JSON representation.
As I continue to search it looks like I could get a marshaller from a
A JSONConfiguration
[
https://jersey.dev.java.net/nonav/apidocs/1.0.3/jersey/com/sun/jersey/api/json/JSONConfiguration.html]
can be use to construct a JSONJAXBContext and then I could get a
marshaller [
https://jersey.dev.java.net/nonav/apidocs/1.0.3/jersey/com/sun/jersey/api/json/JSONJAXBContext.html#createMarshaller()]
then I could use it to marshall my object
[
https://jaxb.dev.java.net/tutorial/section_4_5-Calling-marshal.html#Calling%20marshal]
The only point is that I have to create the same JSONConfiguration
with my code and with the object's annotation.
Is it the right direction ??
