Madhu
Defense4all is ready to work with the new library.
It's not exactly same as you proposed in the code change, but based on.
We will use new library to communicate with controller and previous library
for our internal REST server.
This change is ready to be merged today.
Regards.

Coding and testing is complete on most of the projects. But we are facing
build/IT problems with a few projects such as VTN & defense4all due to the
build environment itself (which are not due to this jackson upgrade).

Also, there is a chicken-and-egg problem with respect to the build
environment we currently have and hence we have to merge the changes on the
Controller in order to proceed to the next steps.

https://git.opendaylight.org/gerrit/#/c/3905/ was reviewed earlier and I was
holding off merging it to make sure we have enough confidence with other
projects and we have it now.

I will be merging https://git.opendaylight.org/gerrit/#/c/3905/ today and
there will be temporary northbound related build/run-time/IT issues in other
projects until the changes that are currently in review are merged.
Please help review and merge them in your respective projects.

Thanks,
Madhu

Hi Devs,

We are upgrading the jackson library from the old 1.9.8 to the newer
2.3.0 in the controller project.
https://git.opendaylight.org/gerrit/#/c/3905/
The NB Integration tests passed in the controller project.
This upgrade is required to bring in third-party library consistency
across the projects as discussed in the TSC call.

The changes are pretty much transparent unless some of the Jackson's
json annotations are used.
I noticed that few of the projects outside the controller uses these
annotations and depends on the Controller's Northbound layer. Hence
these projects must also upgrade from 1.9.8 to 2.3.0.

Alissa & I will take care of these upgrades as well. This is a heads
up to all the devs in the relevant projects to expect code-review
requests from us.

Please let us know if you have any questions/concerns.

Thanks,
Madhu
