Version 2.13.2 uses `Method.getParameterCount()` which is not supported on Android before API 26
See original GitHub issueAfter updating from jackson 2.13.1 to jackson 2.13.2 I noticed my app no longer worked on Android API 21.
After digging into the code I found the issue at line 187 of AnnotatedMethodCollector.java:
- version 2.13.1 used
m.getParameterTypes().length - version 2.13.2 uses
m.getParameterCount()
However, the getParameterCount() method requires API 26 on Android.
For now, I’m sticking to version 2.13.1 😄
EDIT: the fix included the official 2.13.3 release

Many thanks for your time @cowtowncoder, I’ll check this tomorrow as it’s getting late here in France 😃
@vitalyster Not fully intentional. I do wish that at least one Android developer had tested one of multiple release candidates so this was uncovered early enough to decide on which path to take.
However, reading through notes I think the idea was to postpone the compatibility change. I’ll add notes to the new issue (#3658)
