Hi,

I am using resty-gwt. Resty-gwt had his own (forked from jackson I believe)
json serialization classes. But now Rest-gwt is switching to gwt-jackson. I
haven't managed to get gwt-jackson to work with my setup (yet) but looks
like a valid path forward.

In the server I am using CXF and the normal jackson. I am not saying
everything is perfect but most of my objects are transferred without a
fuss. In some cases where the object is complicated (e.g. Collection<Map<T,
Collection<V>> members or inheritance) I have to provide a custom provider
that knows how to deal. However this was a one time pain for me. Now I have
forgotten all the terrifying details and it just works.

I am sure there are other solutions like GSON which I don't have any
experience with.

Furthermore with the upcoming GWT3 which will deprecate generators all
these projects have a scheduled rewrite pending... So who knows?
