UPDATED: Type resolution with deep generic hierarchies still fail in 2025.1.1 (regression from issue #1312)

Description

This is a follow-up to issue #1312 ("Type resolution with deep generic hierarchies is incorrect"). After upgrading Spring Cloud BOM from 2025.0.0 to 2025.1.1 and Spring Boot to 4.0.3, type resolution issues persist in batch mode consumption.

The demo repository (ferblaca/demoStreamGenerics/tree/upgrade_to_2025_0_0) was re-tested to confirm the behavior.

Current Behavior

Single Mode - All Consumers Work ✅

• productConsumer (GenericConsumer<ProductCompleteDTO>)
• productConsumer2 (Consumer<ProductCompleteDTO>)
• productMessageConsumer (GenericMessageConsumer<ProductCompleteDTO>)
• productMessageConsumer2 (Consumer<Message<ProductCompleteDTO>>)

Batch Mode - Partial Failure ⚠️

• productBatchListConsumer (GenericBatchListConsumer<ProductCompleteDTO>): ❌ Fails — payload arrives as byte[........]
• productBatchListConsumer2 (Consumer<List<ProductCompleteDTO>>): ✅ Works
• productBatchListMessageConsumer (GenericBatchMessageListConsumer<ProductCompleteDTO>): ✅ Works
• productBatchListMessageConsumer2 (Consumer<Message<List<ProductCompleteDTO>>>): ✅ Works

Root Cause

Only the productBatchListConsumer bean with the following signature fails to deserialize correctly:

@Bean
public GenericBatchListConsumer<ProductCompleteDTO> productBatchListConsumer() {
    return new GenericBatchListConsumer<>("productBatchListConsumer");
}

Where GenericBatchListConsumer is defined as:

public class GenericBatchListConsumer<T> implements Consumer<List<T>> {
    // ...
}

Instead of deserializing to the expected type, the message payload arrives as raw bytes:

Received Batch List productBatchListConsumer Consumer: [123, 34, 105, 100, 34, 58, 49, ...]

Steps to Reproduce

1. Clone the demo repository
2. Update pom.xml with:
   • Spring Cloud BOM: 2025.1.1
   • Spring Boot: 4.0.3
3. Run ./mvnw spring-boot:run (Kafka starts automatically via Docker Compose)
4. Send the same test messages from the original issue
5. Check the logs for the byte array payload symptom

Environment

まず pom.xml のバージョン変更を確認してから、./mvnw spring-boot:run でデモを実行し、次に issue に記載されている productBatchListConsumer bean と GenericBatchListConsumer のシグネチャを追ってください。その batch payload を動作している consumer と比較してください。完了の条件は、既存の single-mode および batch-mode の consumer が引き続き動作しながら、raw bytes ではなく ProductCompleteDTO の値にデシリアライズされることです。
