ReadValue () doesn't work with TypeReference

I am writing the following code to convert my JSON sting to a list of my object.

List<MyObject> myResponse = new ArrayList<MyObject>();
myResponse = new ObjectMapper().readValue(responseString, new TypeReference<List<MyObject>>(){});

But eclipse is complaining about the following error:

The method readValue(String, Class<T>) in the type ObjectMapper is not applicable for the arguments (String, new TypeReference<List<MyObject>>(){})

What could be the mistake?

The problem was with the TypeReference import. I used

import com.fasterxml.jackson.core.type.TypeReference



instead

import org.codehaus.jackson.type.TypeReference

For me, the problem was importing ObjectMapper. I used

import com.fasterxml.jackson.core.type.ObjectMapper



instead

import org.codehaus.jackson.type.ObjectMapper
