Spring version 4.2.0, Hibernate 4.1.4
Here is my Controller
function:
@RequestMapping(value = "/mobile/getcomp", method = RequestMethod.GET)
@ResponseBody
public List<Company> listforCompanies() {
List<Company> listOfCompanies= new ArrayList<Company>();
listOfCompanies = companyManager.getAllCompanies();
return listOfCompanies;
}
Jackson JSON mapper dependency in Pom.xml
:
<!-- Jackson JSON Mapper -->
<dependency>
<groupId>org.codehaus.jackson</groupId>
<artifactId>jackson-mapper-asl</artifactId>
<version>${jackson.version}</version>
</dependency>
Getting the list in my ArrayList
, but when returning the following error is shown:
SEVERE: Servlet.service() for servlet [dispatcherServlet] in context with path [/IrApp] threw exception [Request processing failed; nested exception is java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: No converter found for return value of type: class java.util.ArrayList] with root cause
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: No converter found for return value of type: class java.util.ArrayList
at org.springframework.util.Assert.isTrue(Assert.java:68)
at org.springframework.web.servlet.mvc.method.annotation.AbstractMessageConverterMethodProcessor.writeWithMessageConverters(AbstractMessageConverterMethodProcessor.java:124)
Link to the example I'm following.
Add the below dependency to your pom.xml:
<dependency>
<groupId>com.fasterxml.jackson.core</groupId>
<artifactId>jackson-databind</artifactId>
<version>2.5.0</version>
</dependency>
