Describe the bug
When reading into an existing object, the JsonMapper
uses the deserializer of the creator property instead of the parameter of the accessor.
package example.three;
import static org.assertj.core.api.Assertions.*;
import tools.jackson.databind.json.JsonMapper;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.Arrays;
import java.util.Collection;
import java.util.stream.Stream;
import org.junit.jupiter.api.DynamicTest;
import org.junit.jupiter.api.Test;

import com.fasterxml.jackson.annotation.JsonCreator;
import com.fasterxml.jackson.annotation.JsonProperty;
import com.fasterxml.jackson.annotation.JsonUnwrapped;
class Jackson3Test {
@Test
void readsIntoCreator() throws Exception {
var mapper = JsonMapper.builder()
.build();
mapper.readerForUpdating(new ArrayListHolder("A")).readValue("""
{
"values" : [ "A", "B" ]
}
""");
}
public static class ArrayListHolder {
Collection<String> values;
ArrayListHolder(String... values) {
this.values = new ArrayList<>(Arrays.asList(values));
}
public void setValues(Collection<String> values) {
this.values = values;
}
}
}

Comment From: cowtowncoder
Thank you for reporting this.
I would expect this to fail for 2.x too, but will mark as 3.x as per report.
Comment From: JooHyukKim
Wrote #5286 to verify indeed it did not work since 2.18. Few questions tho, @cowtowncoder
- this should work without annotating
Collection<String> values;
with@JsonMerge
? - Also, when working, should it be
MergingSettableBeanProperty
that takes care of handling?
Then I can go take a look deeper
