• Facing exception "com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.exc.InvalidDefinitionException: Java 8 date/time type java.time.LocalDate not supported by default" after updating to JBoss EAP 7.4.x:

• We have the following code and the same application works fine in the previous versions (like EAP 7.2.x and EAP 7.3.x):

import java.time.LocalDate;
import com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.ObjectMapper;

...(snip)...

    ObjectMapper mapper = new ObjectMapper();
    LocalDate localDate = exampleObject.getLocalDate();
    System.out.println("LocalDate = " + mapper.writeValueAsString(localDate));

import java.time.LocalDate;

public class ExampleObject {

　　　private LocalDate localDate;

　　　public ExampleObject() {
         this.localDate = LocalDate.now();
     }

　　　public LocalDate getLocalDate() {
         return localDate;
     }

　　　public void setLocalDate(LocalDate date) {
         this.localDate = date;
     }
}
