I use springframeworks in my project and for JSON we use jackson. One list should be serialized in a specific way, i.e. should have a specific JSON-output. I followed the answers of this thread but this fails.

@JsonSerialize(using = UserDataSerializer.class)
List<TestObj> lstTest;

and

public class UserDataSerializer extends StdSerializer<TestObj> {

    protected UserDataSerializer(Class<TestObj> t) {
        super(t);
    }

    @Override
    public void serialize(TestObj value, JsonGenerator gen, SerializerProvider provider) throws IOException {
        gen.writeStartObject();
        gen.writeObjectField(value.getName(), value.getValue());
        gen.writeEndObject();
    }
}

but unfortunately this approach fails with an exception:

Servlet.service() for servlet [test3backend] in context with path [/test] threw exception [Request processing failed; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.f

Any hints how to properly configure it in my project?
