TypeConstrainedMappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter overrides custom HttpMessageConverter

[rsamant14]

I have a custom message convertor that is supposed to convert the following class (EntityResponse ) to application/json

controller returns=> class EntityResponse extends ResourceSupport
@produces=>application/json

custom message converter=>

class EntityResponseJsonMessageConverter<T extends ResourceSupport>
                                 extends AbstractHttpMessageConverter<T>{
    @Override
    public boolean supports(Class<?> clazz) {
        return EntityResponse.class.equals(clazz);
    }
}

Unfortunately before my message converter can kick in TypeConstrainedMappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter kicks in

I need EntityResponseJsonMessageConverter to convert any EntityReponse to json, and all other resourcesupport classes to be handled by the default TypeConstrainedMappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter

Can i change the order of the message converters (have my custom message convertor execute before
TypeConstrainedMappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter). How do i set the priority on a message converter (TypeConstrainedMappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter). I am using spring boot.

Appreciate the help.

Thank you
