Genric type list support to map to child type JSON mapping

[notsatyarth]

I could not figure out if TypeConverter could support such a use case and hence I am raising an issue. Consider the following situation:

@JsonObject
 class A{
         @JsonField
        String aa;
    }
@JsonObject    
class B extends A{
         @JsonField
        String bb;

  }
@JsonObject    
 class C extends A{
         @JsonField
         String cc;
   }

I want to parse my incoming JSON array into List<A> but while fetching them I would like to type cast them as the child classes of B and C and use cInstance.getCc() .Is this possible?

Is there any timeline to support this feature?
