Jackson ObjectMapper converts Integer value to null when mapped to Double type field in POJO-CodePudding

Please bear with me. I have gone through a lot of links but I am not able to find the solution for my case. I need help.

Note: I can not change the JSON request (represented in Test as map)

Here is my POJO:

public class TestModelWithDoubleField {
    private Double frequency;

    public Double getFrequency(){
        return frequency;
    }

    /**
     * @param frequency the frequency to set
     */
    public void setFrequency(Double frequency) {
        this.frequency = frequency;
    }

    /**
     * @param frequency the frequency to set
     */
    @JsonIgnore
    public void setFrequency(Integer frequency) {
        if(frequency != null) {
            setFrequency(new Double(frequency));
        }
    }
}

Here is the test which is failing:

@Test
public void testWithIntegerValueConvertToDoubleFieldInPOJO() throws IOException {
    final Map<String, Integer> map = new HashMap<>();
    map.put("frequency", 900);
    TestModelWithDoubleField pojo = objectMapper.convertValue(map, TestModelWithDoubleField.class);
    Assert.assertNotNull(pojo);
    Assert.assertNotNull(pojo.getFrequency());   //-> This is giving output as null. Hence fails.
}

In the line Assert.assertNotNull(pojo.getFrequency()); frequency is null. Hence the test fails.

I want that it is automatically converted to its Double type. Putting @JsonIgnore on the other setter also didn't work.

Any approach to get a valid object out of this map is fine.

CodePudding user response：

Just add @JsonProperty("frequency") on the desired setter. You don't even need @JsonIgnore on the other one.

public static class TestModelWithDoubleField
{
  private Double frequency;

  public Double getFrequency()
  {
      return frequency;
  }

  /**
   * @param frequency the frequency to set
   */
  @JsonProperty("frequency")
  public void setFrequency(Double frequency)
  {
      this.frequency = frequency;
  }

  /**
   * @param frequency the frequency to set
   */
  public void setFrequency(Integer frequency)
  {
      if(frequency != null)
      {
          setFrequency(new Double(frequency));
      }
  }
}

CodePudding user response：

Just drop the public void setFrequency(Integer frequency) method and it will work:

public class TestModelWithDoubleField {
    private Double frequency;

    public Double getFrequency(){
        return frequency;
    }

    public void setFrequency(Double frequency){
        this.frequency = frequency;
    }
}

Since you can't drop the public void setFrequency(Integer frequency) method, then you can annotate the other setter with @JsonProperty defining it as the setter to be used by Jackson:

public class TestModelWithDoubleField {
    private Double frequency;

    public Double getFrequency(){
        return frequency;
    }

    @JsonProperty
    public void setFrequency(Double frequency) {
        this.frequency = frequency;
    }

    public void setFrequency(Integer frequency) {
        if(frequency != null) {
            setFrequency(new Double(frequency));
        }
    }
}
