Description

Andy Wilkinson opened DATAREST-834 and commented

The bean is currently called objectMapper which is a rather generic name for a bean that is described as "The Jackson ObjectMapper used internally". Could it be called something like dataRestObjectMapper instead? This would make it less likely to accidentally override a user's own ObjectMapper definition and would also hopefully reduce the chance of autowiring working unexpectedly due to the bean name matching the name of the target method argument


Affects: 2.4.4 (Gosling SR4)
