Spring 3.2 DefferedResult with ajax request.

[deeps83]

Hi,

I am using DefferedResult with ajaxrequest.In xml the messageconverter is configured as

<bean id="jacksonMessageConverter"
class="org.springframework.http.converter.json.Map pingJacksonHttpMessageConverter"></bean>
<bean
class="org.springframework.web.servlet.mvc.annotat ion.AnnotationMethodHandlerAdapter">
<property name="messageConverters">
<list>
<ref bean="jacksonMessageConverter" />
</list>
</property>
</bean>

This works for all ajax requests, except the one for which DefferedResult is used.In that case the response seems to be expected as as xml ,as I can see in firebug, and since I am returning a Map, it is giving xml parse error and the ajax response object is becoming null.

Do I need to set the response content-type particularly for the cases where DeffereResult is used? Or how can I get the response as json instead of xml?I am using spring 3.2.0.RELEASE version for web and web-mvc and 3.1.1.RELEASE for other spring modules.

Thanks,
Dipti.
