Webservice with Gson in Spring

I would like to use Gson for webservices in spring 4. I followed steps in this tutorial.

Get request method in SocialGraphUI.java. There is object test and method allNodes, which returns list of objects of class Node and allEdges returns list of objects of class Edge.

    @RequestMapping(value = "/", method = RequestMethod.GET)
   public String getNodesAndEdges(ModelMap model) {

      model.addAttribute("nodes", test.allNodes);
      model.addAttribute("edges", test.allEdges);
      return "index";
   }

I get these error messages:

    type Exception report

description The server encountered an internal error that prevented it from fulfilling this request.

The main problem here could be the duplicate mvc:annotation-driven declaration.

But anyway, Spring 4.1 introduced Gson support so that makes it way easier for you to achieve this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
   xmlns:context="http://www.springframework.org/schema/context"
   xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
   xmlns:mvc="http://www.springframework.org/schema/mvc"
   xsi:schemaLocation="
    http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans
    http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans.xsd
    http://www.springframework.org/schema/mvc 
    http://www.springframework.org/schema/mvc/spring-mvc.xsd
    http://www.springframework.org/schema/context
    http://www.springframework.org/schema/context/spring-context.xsd">

  <context:component-scan base-package="cz.ario.socialgraphui.controller" />

  <bean class="org.springframework.web.servlet.view.InternalResourceViewResolver">
    <property name="prefix" value="/WEB-INF/jsp/" />
    <property name="suffix" value=".jsp" />
  </bean>

  <mvc:annotation-driven>
    <mvc:message-converters>
      <bean class="org.springframework.http.converter.json.GsonHttpMessageConverter" />
      <!-- other HttpMessageConverters you need here -->
      <!-- Also: why adding Jackson's MessageConverter? Gson should pick JSON serialization in this case -->
    </mvc:message-converters>
  </mvc:annotation-driven>


  <mvc:resources mapping="/scripts/**" location="/scripts/" />
  <mvc:resources mapping="/styles/**" location="/styles/" />

</beans>

Same thing with a JavaConfig example:

@Configuration
@EnableWebMvc
@ComponentScan("cz.ario.socialgraphui.controller")
public class WebConfig extends WebMvcConfigurerAdapter {

    @Bean
    public InternalResourceViewResolver viewResolver() {
        InternalResourceViewResolver viewResolver = new InternalResourceViewResolver();
        viewResolver.setPrefix("/WEB-INF/views/");
        viewResolver.setSuffix(".jsp");
        return viewResolver;
    }

    @Override
    public void configureMessageConverters(List<HttpMessageConverter<?>> converters) {
      converters.add(new GsonHttpMessageConverter());
      // ...
    }  

    @Override
    public void addResourceHandlers(ResourceHandlerRegistry registry) {
        registry.addResourceHandler("/scripts/**").addResourceLocations("/scripts/");
        registry.addResourceHandler("/styles/**").addResourceLocations("/styles/");
    }
}

Note: you should (almost) never use versioned XSDs in your XML configuration files - see this SO question for more details.
