Compilation Error with jackson-kotlin-module (ExtensionKt)

[hell-storm2004]

I am trying to migrate from Jackson 2.x to 3.0.3. I thought it will be simple, but it is proving a bit difficult. I got most of the classes to compile (runtime is another story, haven't reached that far yet!).

But I am stuck in one place now. I have a Java class which imports this

import static com.fasterxml.jackson.module.kotlin.ExtensionsKt.jacksonObjectMapper;

Later on in the code, it initialses the ObjectMapper like so:

ObjectMapper mapper = jacksonObjectMapper();

But when change it to:

import static tools.jackson.module.kotlin.ExtensionsKt.jacksonObjectMapper;

Maven/IDE starts complaining.

error: package tools.jackson.module.kotlin.ExtensionKt does not exist

Am I doing something wrong? Or has the class' functionality moved somewhere else?

Does ExtensionKt still exist in Jackson 3?

[hell-storm2004]

Yes, i see it does.

@hell-storm2004 can you move this jackson-module-kotlin - there is a different maintainer for that module?

That class seems to be gone and Kotlin module users might know what to use instead.

Apoligies! I thought this was one combined segement about Jackson. I will do that.

@cowtowncoder I am not reporting an issue, its just a query about a compilation error.
