At the moment I can not think of a better way. Adding wrapping/unwrapping from Jackson side has proven a thorny issue, not so much for simple use cases (... well, most cases end up not being simple anyway), but in combination with things like polymorphic handling, type ids and JsonCreator/JsonValue annotations. Adding root-level wrapping itself could be tweakable, but there is no mechanism for doing wrapping and adding siblings.
About the only thing I can think of that might be helpful would be "converting " serializers/deserializers, which could allow bit easier handling, but not sure they would work for your specific use case. -+ Tatu +- On Tue, Aug 16, 2016 at 8:49 AM, Karl the Pagan <[email protected]> wrote: > At this point I don't see a way to achieve wrapping with a root POJO using > BeanSerializerModifier so I'm committed to the course of extending > DefaultSerializerProvider.
