Java REST API：无法从START_ARRAY令牌中反序列化Object的实例

Question

I have a REST API written using Java and Jersey. Below is the related code of the WEB API.

 @GET
    @Path("/getAllPhase1")
    @Produces(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)  
    public List<Phase1Bean> getAllPhase1()
    {
        Phase1Interface phase1Interface = new Phase1Impl();
        List<Phase1Bean> allPhase1 = phase1Interface.getAllPhase1();
        return allPhase1;
    }

In my web application's REST client, I wrote the below code.

Client client = ClientBuilder.newClient();

        client.target("http://localhost:8080/xxx/rest")
            .path("phase1/getAllPhase1")
            .request(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)
            .get(Phase1Bean.class);

Unfortunatly this generates the below error

Exception in thread "main" javax.ws.rs.client.ResponseProcessingException: com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.JsonMappingException: Can not deserialize instance of bean.Phase1Bean out of START_ARRAY token

How can I solve this issue?

Your GET method is returning a List, rather than a single Phase1Bean object - hence the "START_ARRAY" token mentioned in the error message. You can change your client .get() method to receive a List, and then extract the Phase1Bean items from there.

client.target("http://localhost:8080/xxx/rest")
        .path("phase1/getAllPhase1")
        .request(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)
        .get(new GenericType<List<Phase1Bean>>(){});

An alternative would be to wrap your list in another object (Phase1BeanResponse, for example), containing the list and possibly other metadata related to the items.
