Jonathan S Fisher updated TOMEE-2232:
-------------------------------------
    Description: 
We encountered a strange limitation while working with salesforce. We're hitting their login OAUTH endpoint and it returns a JSON string like this:

{code:json}
{  
   "access_token":"onebiglongstring",
   "instance_url":"https://ab67.salesforce.com",
   "id":"https://test.salesforce.com/id/sfid/sifd",
   "token_type":"Bearer",
   "issued_at":"1536415016572",
   "signature":"morebase64"
}
 {code}

So naturally we constructed the following Java class:

{code:java}
@Data
public class SalesforceLoginToken {
	@XmlElement(name = "access_token")
	private String accessToken;
	@XmlElement(name = "instance_url")
	private String instanceUrl;
	@XmlElement
	private String id;
	@XmlElement(name = "token_type")
	private String tokenType;
	@XmlElement(name = "issued_at")
	private String issuedAt;
	@XmlElement
	private String signature;
}
{code}

However, TomEE will not deserialize any of the fields where the name is specified in the XMLElement. A [head-desking] workaround we're using is to break javabean convention and write our variables like this:

{code:java}
	@XmlElement
	private String token_type;
{code}

because this won't work. TomEE simply fills out null every time:

{code:java}
	@XmlElement(name = "token_type")
	private String tokenType;
{code}

I believe this used to work in TomEE 1.7.5, I haven't tested on master or anything else.

Anyway thanks,
-Jonathan
