@JsonIncludeProperties and @JsonPropertyOrder could be combined

I was experimenting a bit with the @JsonIncludeProperties introduced recently.

It would be nice if it would automatically apply the property order instead of having to include @JsonPropertyOrder as well.

Now we need:

@JsonIncludeProperties({
        "id",
        "code",
        "name"
})
@JsonPropertyOrder({
        "id",
        "code",
        "name"
})
public class Continent {

}

Hmmh. Interesting idea, I like it.

Will have to think about how this should be achieved, semantics probably cannot be changed by automatically using it (unless this would have the lowest priority? Or maybe not even then). But adding a new OptBoolean property (order?) could work, allow easy opt-in.

Yes you are of course right it is @JsonPropertyOrder. So maybe something like below then:

@JsonIncludeProperties(order = OptBoolean.TRUE, value = {
        "id",
        "code",
        "name"
})
public class Continent {

}

I think indeed order is sufficient 😉
