jaxb - Shared refrences with json -

is possible make use of concept of shared references json output mode? read article http://blog.bdoughan.com/2010/10/jaxb-and-shared-references-xmlid-and.html), changing @produces on jax-rs json forces endless loop. want reduce object it`s id:

public class foo {     private long id;     private string sometext;     private bar bar; } 

i want bind instances of so:

{     "id": 1234,     "sometext": "lorem",     "bar_id": 9876 } 

this want avoid:

{     "id": 1234,     "sometext": "lorem",     "bar": {         "id": 9876,         "anothertext": "ipsum"     } } 

note: i'm eclipselink jaxb (moxy) lead , member of jaxb (jsr-222) expert group.

with moxy json-binding provider shared references post referenced (from blog) work json xml. since using jax-rs below example of configuring moxy in environment:

when using @xmlid/@xmlidref expected object being reference id exist in document. since isn't use case better off using xmladapter. xmladapter have signature similar to:

public class baradapter extends xmladapter<integer, bar> {     ... } 

in xmladapter responsible returning id instance of bar during marshal, , returning instance of bar based on id during unmarshal.
