[Resteasy-developers] issue with restEasy client and jackson2 provider

[Mario R. <mar...@ll...>]

Hi, I have a Java REST webservice that connects to a Node.js REST service via restEasy client.  While I was using the old org.codehaus.jackson.* version it was working fine, then I'm trying to update to jackson2 provider but now I'm getting an error when the restEasy client on my Java app is trying to post a message to the nodeJS service.

Exception in thread "Thread-13" java.lang.NoSuchMethodErr

I found this page http://stackoverflow.com/questions/21780208/resteasy-and-jackson-incompatibility-nosuchmethodexception making reference to an incompatibility on earlier versions of restEasy and jackson2, however, I'm using Jackson 2.7 and restEasy 3.0.16.

Here is the gradle build settings:

       // RestEasy (Server side JAX-RS implementation)
       compile 'org.jboss.resteasy:resteasy-jaxrs:3.0.16.Final'
       compile 'org.jboss.resteasy:resteasy-guice:3.0.16.Final'
       compile 'org.jboss.resteasy:resteasy-servlet-initializer:3.0.16.Final'
       compile 'org.jboss.resteasy:resteasy-jackson2-provider:3.0.16.Final'

       // RESTEasy (JAX-RS client)
       compile 'org.jboss.resteasy:resteasy-client:3.0.16.Final'

Any clue what I'm missing ?
