Conversion of interface with Gson

Question

Is it possible to convert JSON to Java bean interface that has interfaces as attributes? I have one implementation of every interface and these can be directly mapped to interfaces.

Example:

public interface MyMainClass {

    public MyInterfaceClass1 getMyInterfaceClass1();

}

could you rewrite your question? I really don't understand it — santiagozky, Jan 14 '12 at 19:31

It is impossible to say whether there are other implementations of the interface: classloaders are free to create new classes on demand.
~~The answer is, use @JsonDeserialize(as=YourImpl.class), see Jackson JSON, Immutable Classes, and Interfaces~~
My bad, for GSON it's .registerTypeAdapter(Node.class, new NodeDeserializer()) and Deserializing an abstract class in Gson
