i configure my messageconverter as Jackson's then
class Foo{int x; int y}
and in controller
@ResponseBody
public Foo method(){
return new Foo(3,4)
}
from that i m expecting to return a JSON string {x:'3',y:'4'} from server without any other configuration. but getting 404 error response to my ajax request
If the method is annotated with @ResponseBody, the return type is written to the response HTTP body. The return value will be converted to the declared method argument type using HttpMessageConverters.
Am I wrong ? or should I convert my response Object to Json string myself using serializer and then returning that string as response.(I could make string responses correctly) or should I make some other configurations ? like adding annotations for class Foo
here is my conf.xml
<bean id="jacksonMessageConverter" class="org.springframework.http.
converter.json.MappingJacksonHttpMessageConverter">
<bean class="org.springframework.web.servlet.mvc.annotation.AnnotationMethodHandlerAdapter">
<property name="messageConverters">
<list>
<ref bean="jacksonMessageConverter"/>
</list>
</property>
