title: Working with bi-dirctional JACKSON
body: <p>first, sorry about my bad english;</p>
  
  <p>Second, I have the following Code: </p>
  
  <pre><code>@JsonIdentityInfo(generator = ObjectIdGenerators.PropertyGenerator.class, property = "id")    
  
  public class UserAccount implements Serializable  {
  
      private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
  
      @Id
      @GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.IDENTITY)
      private Long id;
  
      private List&lt;Venda&gt; vendas;
  
      }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>And the following:</p>
  
  <pre><code>public class Venda implements Serializable  {
  
      private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
  
      @Id
      @GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.IDENTITY)
      private Long id;
  
      private UserAccount cliente;
  
      }
  </code></pre>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>So, everything is okay and get the json from serialize on this way (when I ask for an UserAccount):</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <pre><code>[
    {
      "id": 1,    
      "vendas": [
        {
          "id": 1,        
          "cliente": 1,        
        }
      ]
    }
  ]
  </code></pre>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>And when I ask for a Venda:</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <pre><code>[
    {
      "id": 1,    
      "cliente": {
        "id": 1,      
        "vendas": [
          {
            "id": 1,        
            "cliente": 1         
          }
        ]
      }
    }
  ]
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The problem is, I don't need the "cliente" information on "vendas"  in the first case, but in the second one I need the "cliente" information, However I don't want his "vendas", cause I already got it before;</p>
  
  <p>I already trid @JsonIgnore and didn't work for me, what should I do?</p>
  
  <p>PS: I'm working with GSON to get the .Class from JSON, and I get a terrible Exception because sometimes cliente is an Object and sometimes is Integer, so if you guys have another solution that makes cliente and vendas don't change their type, i would to know too. :(</p>
