JQuery, Spring MVC @RequestBody and JSON - 集成整合

JQuery, [url=http://luju.me/spring/reference/index.html]Spring[/url] MVC @RequestBody and JSON - 集成整合

I would like to have a bidirectional JSON to Java serialization

I'm using successfully the Java to JSON to JQuery path... (@ResponseBody) e.g.
@RequestMapping(value={"/fooBar/{id}"}, method=RequestMethod.GET)
public @ResponseBody FooBar getFooBar(
@PathVariable String id,
HttpServletResponse response , ModelMap model) {
response.setContentType("application/json");
...
}

and In JQuery I use
$.getJSON('fooBar/1', function(data) {
//do something
});

this works well (e.g. annotations work already, thanks to all the answerers)

However, how do I do the reverse path: have JSON be serialized to a Java Object back using RequestBody?

no matter what I try, I can't get something like this to work:
@RequestMapping(value={"/fooBar/save"}, method=RequestMethod.POST)
public String saveFooBar(@RequestBody FooBar fooBar,
HttpServletResponse response , ModelMap model) {

//This method is never called. (it does when I remove the RequestBody...)
}

I have Jackson configured correctly (it serializes on the way out) and I have MVC set as annotations driven of course

How do I make it work? is it possible at all? or is Spring / JSON / JQuery is oneway (out)?

Update:

I changed this Jackson setting
<bean id="jsonHttpMessageConverter"
class="org.springframework.http.converter.json.MappingJacksonHttpMessageConverter" />

<!-- Bind the return value of the Rest service to the ResponseBody. -->
<bean
class="org.springframework.web.servlet.mvc.annotation.AnnotationMethodHandlerAdapter">
<property name="messageConverters">
<util:list id="beanList">
<ref bean="jsonHttpMessageConverter" />
<!-- <ref bean="xmlMessageConverter" /> -->
</util:list>
</property>
</bean>

To the (almost similiar one) suggested
<bean id="jacksonMessageConverter"
class="org.springframework.http.converter.json.MappingJacksonHttpMessageConverter"></bean>
<bean
class="org.springframework.web.servlet.mvc.annotation.AnnotationMethodHandlerAdapter">
<property name="messageConverters">
<list>
<ref bean="jacksonMessageConverter" />
</list>
</property>
</bean>

And it seems to work! I don't know what exactly did the trick, but it works...


-------------------------------------

I'm pretty sure you only have to register MappingJacksonHttpMessageConverter

In folder src/main/java/test/json

TestController.java
@Controller
@RequestMapping("/test")
public class TestController {

@RequestMapping(method = RequestMethod.POST, value = "math")
@ResponseBody
public Result math(@RequestBody final Request request) {
final Result result = new Result();
result.setAddition(request.getLeft() + request.getRight());
result.setSubtraction(request.getLeft() - request.getRight());
result.setMultiplication(request.getLeft() * request.getRight());
return result;
}

}

Request.java
public class Request implements Serializable {
private static final long serialVersionUID = 1513207428686438208L;
private int left;
private int right;
public int getLeft() {return left;}
public void setLeft(int left) {this.left = left;}
public int getRight() {return right;}
public void setRight(int right) {this.right = right;}
}

Result.java
public class Result implements Serializable {
private static final long serialVersionUID = -5054749880960511861L;
private int addition;
private int subtraction;
private int multiplication;

public int getAddition() { return addition; }
public void setAddition(int addition) { this.addition = addition; }
public int getSubtraction() { return subtraction; }
public void setSubtraction(int subtraction) { this.subtraction = subtraction; }
public int getMultiplication() { return multiplication; }
public void setMultiplication(int multiplication) { this.multiplication = multiplication; }
}

You can test this setup by executing mvn jetty:run on the command line, and then sending a POST request:
URL: http://localhost:8080/test/math
mime type: application/json
post body: { "left": 13 , "right" : 7 }

I used the Poster Firefox plugin to do this.

Here's what the response looks like:
{"addition":20,"subtraction":6,"multiplication":91}
