Re: [Resteasy-developers] Converting object fields when serializing to JSON

[Solomon D. <sd...@gm...>]

XmlJavaAdapter is useful, but it's somewhat limited.  You can use it for
things like converting Currency or Date objects into Strings and vice
versa.  It's not all that helpful for more complicated scenarios, like
adding fields from a database or complicated XML conversions.
