I am using jackson-databind depedency of version 2.14.2 but getting an error getType() not found.

[aayushRedHat]

I am getting the following error after executing Spring-Camel Application:
Caused by: java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.introspect.AnnotatedMember.getType(Lcom/fasterxml/jackson/databind/type/TypeBindings;)Lcom/fasterxml/jackson/databind/JavaType;

I checked the AnnotatedMember Class but there is not method for getType(). Can anyone suggest the appropriate version of the dependency containing the getType() method?

[JooHyukKim]

AnnotatedMember is an abstract class and does not implement getType() from its supser class Annotated.

[JooHyukKim]

Sounds like dependency issue. You can check out https://github.com/FasterXML/jackson-databind main page or other sources on internet about it.

[cowtowncoder]

99% certainly incompatibility between Jackson (jackson-databind) version that is deployed (in classpath), vs. what code calling AnnotatedMember.getType() was compiled with.

This method came from Annotated base class, and as per:

https://www.javadoc.io/doc/com.fasterxml.jackson.core/jackson-databind/2.7.9/index.html

Deprecated. Since 2.7 Use [getType()](https://www.javadoc.io/static/com.fasterxml.jackson.core/jackson-databind/2.7.9/com/fasterxml/jackson/databind/introspect/Annotated.html#getType()) instead. To be removed from 2.8.

So something was compiled against Jackson 2.7 or earlier and for some reason used this method. Method hasn't been part of jackson-databind since maybe 2.8.
Whatever that something is hopefully has a newer version that does not use this method.

Note that this deprecation is unusual, Jackson project does not typically deprecate and remove methods of public API within minor releases. But if I remember correctly there was something special why this particular method could no longer be supported, when type resolution problems were fixed.

@aayushRedHat were you able to resolve the error as I am facing same problem when integrating swagger

[JooHyukKim]

Did you try what was suggested above?

[JooHyukKim]

Most likely that will do

I don't know what build tool you are using. Build tools like Maven and Gradle provide ways to list your dependencies and the versions for those dependencies. If you don't use a build tool and just dump lots of jar files in a directory, you can still check the file names of the jars (which typically include a version number). The versions of all the jackson jars should be made to match.

If you still get the issue then, can you provide us with the full NoSuchMethodError stack trace. This will tell us what is making the call to AnnotatedMember.getType.

the below is the error message

  "error": [

when accessing the URL "http://localhost:8013/api/swagger.json"

also I have below dependencies

               <dependency>
			<groupId>com.fasterxml.jackson.core</groupId>
			<artifactId>jackson-core</artifactId>
			<version>2.15.0</version>

			<groupId>io.swagger</groupId>
			<artifactId>swagger-jersey2-jaxrs</artifactId>
			<version>1.5.17</version>
		</dependency>

also I am using jax-rs annotations

[pjfanning]

• upgrade to a much newer version of swagger-jersey2-jaxrs
• https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/io.swagger/swagger-jersey2-jaxrs
• 1.6.15 is the latest release
• using 8 and 10 year old jars is a recipe for disaster and then trying to mix them with newer release of jackson - very bad idea

[pjfanning]

There is Stackoverflow question about this too.

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/77271263/java-lang-nosuchmethoderror-jackson-databind-introspect-annotatedmember-gettype

It has a stacktrace suggesting that that user was using an old swagger jar that was created to work with an old version of jackson. Upgrading the swagger jars should help.

[pjfanning]

• old code means more bugs - you should upgrade
• if you insist on using ancient jars, downgrade to ancient jackson too - you can't use jars from different eras
• https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/io.swagger/swagger-core/1.5.17 appears to expect jackson 2.8.9

[pjfanning]

looking at the commit that removed this method - you probably need to go back to jackson-databind 2.6.7 to find a release that has the getType method.

[teerthpatel0408]

now when I downgraded jackson version i am getting response of http://localhost:8013/api/swagger.json but getting error when accessing http://localhost:8013/swagger-ui/index.html,basically the error is as below

500 : {"status":"FAIL","error":[{"code":"500","field":null,"description":"HTTP 500 Internal Server Error","info":"javax.ws.rs.InternalServerErrorException: HTTP 500 Internal Server Error\n\tat org.glassfish.jersey.server.internal.MappableExceptionWrapperInterceptor.aroundWriteTo(MappableExceptionWrapperInterceptor.java:65)\n\tat org.glassfish.jersey.message.internal.WriterInterceptorExecutor.proceed(WriterInterceptorExecutor.java:139)\n\tat org.glassfish.jersey.message.internal.MessageBodyFactory.writeTo(MessageBodyFactory.java:1116)\nCaused by: org.glassfish.jersey.message.internal.MessageBodyProviderNotFoundException: MessageBodyWriter not found for media type=application\/yaml, type=class io.swagger.models.Swagger, genericType=class io.swagger.models.Swagger.\n\tat org.glassfish.jersey.message.internal.WriterInterceptorExecutor$TerminalWriterInterceptor.aroundWriteTo(WriterInterceptorExecutor.java:224)\n\tat org.glassfish.jersey.message.internal.WriterInterceptorExecutor.proceed(WriterInterceptorExecutor.java:139)\n\tat org.glassfish.jersey.server.internal.JsonWithPaddingInterceptor.aroundWriteTo(JsonWithPaddingInterceptor.java:85)\n","severity":"ERROR","category":"REQUEST","causes":[],"errorIdentifiers":{}}]} http://localhost:8013/api/swagger.yaml

It would be thankfull if anyone could help me

[cowtowncoder]

@teerthpatel0408 I would suggest that at this point you do try to use a newer version of swagger-jersey2-jaxrs (or whatever depends on Jackson). Your stack trace has no info on Jackson issue and I don't think anyone here has much interest in software archeology of such old versions.

[teerthpatel0408]

ok will try

Also I am getting white label error page 404 not found when integrating swagger openapi with springboot 3 in which I use spring annotations . also when I checked my endpoints are running in postman but when trying to access http://localhost:8012/swagger-ui/index.html getting whitelabel error
