convert java object to json with different object name

Question

I want to convert java object to JSON with different object name. For Example :

public class MetaProfileResponse {

    private Boolean tour ;

    private Integer maxFreeUser;

    private Boolean paid;

    private Integer status;
}

other Class is :

public class ProfileResponse {

    private String domainName;

    private String companyName;

    private String country;

    private String postCode;
}

A class have object of both class :

public class GetProfileResponse {

    private MetaProfileResponse metaProfileResponse;

    private ProfileResponse profileResponse;
}

when we get response as JSON We got :

{"metaProfileResponse":{"tour":null,"maxFreeUser":25,"paid":false,"status":0},"profileResponse":{"domainName":null,"companyName":null,"country":null,"postCode":null}}

But We want result as : {"meta":{"tour":null,"maxFreeUser":25,"paid":false,"status":0},"profile":{"domainName":null,"companyName":null,"country":null,"postCode":null}}

without changing class name

Try by using @XmlRootElement(name="meta") annotation in MetaProfileResponse — Pasupathi Rajamanickam

You can use the annotation @JsonProperty(value="whateverValueYouWant") on the getter of metaProfileResponse; It should give you proper result.

For this you need jackson core and jackson mapper jars

Which ways do I have to do this, if I am using objects from third party lib?
