Hi Scott,
If you include the Jersey JSON module in the class path there should
be no need for any explicit registration.
The class you registered, JSONRootElementProvider, is for JAXB, the
relevant component for JSONObject is
com.sun.jersey.json.impl.provider.entity.JSONObjectProvider. I think
there is an error in the tech tip, it should not be even mentioning
that, so the example is very misleading.
When you say "the class loader hack in place" what hack are you
referring to?
Paul.
