Typically you just need MessageBodyReader/-Writer implementations, and
Jackson project provides "Jackson JAX-RS provider". That provider (of
said handlers) needs to be registered from
javax.ws.rs.core.Application implementation as far as I remember, and
you can create an instance or pass Class there.
Jackson Wiki has some links on:
http://wiki.fasterxml.com/JacksonFAQJaxRs although unfortunately not
specific code sample.
