Sample code of "Jackson JSON Views support" is wrong ? [SPR-12994]

Kazuki Shimizu opened SPR-12994 and commented

In "Jackson JSON Views support" of "22.10.1 RestTemplate", sample code is wrong ?

• JacksonSerializationValue -> MappingJacksonValue ?

Currently:

JacksonSerializationValue jsv = new JacksonSerializationValue(new User("eric", "7!jd#h23"),
    User.WithoutPasswordView.class);
HttpEntity<JacksonSerializationValue> entity = new HttpEntity<JacksonSerializationValue>(jsv);
String s = template.postForObject("http://example.com/user", entity, String.class);

Modification candidate :

MappingJacksonValue mjv = new MappingJacksonValue(new User("eric", "7!jd#h23"));
mjv.setSerializationView(User.WithoutPasswordView.class);
HttpEntity<MappingJacksonValue> entity = new HttpEntity<MappingJacksonValue>(mjv);
String s = template.postForObject("http://example.com/user", entity, String.class);

How do think ?
