Added:

• New self-implemented JsonParser and JsonDumper implementation
• New self-implemented Mapper
• Support for ordering fields using the order attribute in @MapperOptions
• Support for additional attributes by adding @Additional to a field of type AbstractObject
• Support for deserializing types with generic type arguments (Set, List, Map)
• Support for accessing the context (field, annotations, ...) in custom type adapters
• Stream API collectors for AbstractArray and AbstractObject that can be accessed using the static methods AbstractArray.collect() and AbstractObject.collect()
• Bson Support (bson library is marked optional and needs to be added to the classpath manually)

Fixed:

• QueryString keys weren't encoded/decoded properly
• Json String length limit of 1500

Deprecated:

• AbstractMapper (see the Mapper class for the new api)

Removed:

• Gson dependency
• Gson util classes (GsonAbstractDataAdapter, GsonEnum, GsonEnumAdapter, GsonListDeserializer, GsonMapDeserializer)

Required Changes:

• The old AbstractMapper got deprecated and should be replaced by the new Mapper
• Because gson isn't used for mapping anymore, you need to make sure to replace all gson annotations (@SerializedName, @Expose, ...) to @MapperOptions
