Deprecated Enum Constants

Enum Constant and Description
com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.SerializationFeature.WRITE_BIGDECIMAL_AS_PLAIN Since 2.5: use JsonGenerator.Feature.WRITE_BIGDECIMAL_AS_PLAIN instead (using ObjectWriter.with(com.fasterxml.jackson.core.JsonGenerator.Feature)).
com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.SerializationFeature.WRITE_EMPTY_JSON_ARRAYS Since 2.8 there are better mechanism for specifying filtering; specifically using JsonFormat or configuration overrides.

Deprecated Annotation Type Elements

Annotation Type Element and Description
com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.annotation.JsonSerialize.include As of Jackson 2.0, this annotation has been replaced by JsonInclude
com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.jsonschema.JsonSerializableSchema.schemaItemDefinition (since 2.1) -- support will be dropped in future, since JSON-as-String is fundamentally bad way for customizing anything. No direct replacements offered.
com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.jsonschema.JsonSerializableSchema.schemaObjectPropertiesDefinition (since 2.1) -- support will be dropped in future, since JSON-as-String is fundamentally bad way for customizing anything. No direct replacements offered.
