Correct set of dependencies for using Jackson mapper

<properties>
  <!-- Use the latest version whenever possible. -->
  <jackson.version>2.4.4</jackson.version>
</properties>
<dependencies>
   <dependency>
    <groupId>com.fasterxml.jackson.core</groupId>
    <artifactId>jackson-databind</artifactId>
    <version>${jackson.version}</version>
  </dependency>
</dependencies>

you have a ObjectMapper (from Jackson Databind package) handy.
if so, you can do:

JsonFactory factory = objectMapper.getFactory();

So, the 3 “fasterxml” dependencies which you already have in u’r pom are enough for ObjectMapper as it includes jackson-databind.
