Annotazioni Jackson - @JsonTypeName

@JsonTypeName viene utilizzato per impostare i nomi dei tipi da utilizzare per la classe annotata.

Esempio: @JsonTypeName

import java.io.IOException;
import com.fasterxml.jackson.annotation.JsonSubTypes;
import com.fasterxml.jackson.annotation.JsonTypeInfo;
import com.fasterxml.jackson.annotation.JsonTypeInfo.As;
import com.fasterxml.jackson.annotation.JsonTypeName;
import com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.ObjectMapper;

public class JacksonTester {
   public static void main(String args[]) throws IOException {
      Shape shape = new JacksonTester.Circle("CustomCircle", 1);
      String result = new ObjectMapper()
         .writerWithDefaultPrettyPrinter()
         .writeValueAsString(shape);
      System.out.println(result);   
      String json = "{\"name\":\"CustomCircle\",\"radius\":1.0, \"type\":\"circle\"}";
      Circle circle = new ObjectMapper().readerFor(Shape.class).readValue(json);
      System.out.println(circle.name);
   }
   @JsonTypeInfo(use = JsonTypeInfo.Id.NAME, 
      include = As.PROPERTY, property = "type") @JsonSubTypes({
      
      @JsonSubTypes.Type(value = Square.class, name = "square"),

   })
   static class Shape {
      public String name;
      Shape(String name){
         this.name = name;
      }            
   }
   @JsonTypeName("square")
