RestEASY and Jackson incompatibility - NoSuchMetho

Question

I migrated my project from JBoss AS 7.2 to WildFly 8.0 and after some time of updating versions I can't figure out, how to solve RestEASY and Jackson incompatibility.

In JBoss AS 7.2 I used RestEASY 3.0.6.Final and Jackson 2.2.1 and they worked like a charm. But now, with WildFly's Jackson 2.3, there is an incompatibility. Server throws an NoSuchMethodError exception:

All my colleagues get the same error. Can you tell me what version should I use?

UPDATE:

ResteasyJackson2Provider class from jar resteasy-jackson2-provider extends JacksonJaxbJsonProvider from jar jackson-jaxrs-json-provider and calls method

  protected JsonEndpointConfig _configForWriting(ObjectMapper mapper, Annotation[] annotations)

in jackson-jaxrs-json-provider-2.2.1 it is OK, but in jackson-jaxrs-json-provider-2.3.0 this method has different arguments:

  protected JsonEndpointConfig _configForWriting(ObjectWriter writer, Annotation[] annotations)

I think this is an official bug.

Answer 1

According to comments under this commit to jackson-jaxrs-providers the breakage was not intentional and will be resolved in jackson-jaxrs-providers patch version 2.3.2.

Answer 2

Try to run it in wildfly-8.2.0.Final.
