StackOverflowError in delegating TypeAdapterFactory

GSON Version: 2.3.1 Description: gson.getDelegateAdapter(this, type) causes inifinite recursion when used with a @JsonAdapter annotated type.

Minimal example:

package test.gson;

import com.google.gson.Gson;
import com.google.gson.TypeAdapter;
import com.google.gson.TypeAdapterFactory;
import com.google.gson.annotations.JsonAdapter;
import com.google.gson.reflect.TypeToken;

/* @formatter:off */
public class GsonStackOverflowError {

    public static void main(final String[] args) {
        new Gson().fromJson("{}", A.class);
    }

    @JsonAdapter(Adapter.class)
    public static class A {}

    public static class Adapter implements TypeAdapterFactory {
        @Override
        public <T> TypeAdapter<T> create(final Gson gson, final TypeToken<T> type)
        {
            gson.getDelegateAdapter(this, type);
            throw new IllegalStateException("Not reproducible");
        }
    }
}

Thanks for following up

I can confirm that the issue is resolved as of Gson 2.7. Should this issue be closed?
