public @interface EnableHypermediaSupport

Activates hypermedia support in the ApplicationContext. Will register infrastructure beans available for injection to ease building hypermedia related code. Which components get registered depends on the hypermedia type being activated through the type() attribute. Hypermedia-type-specific implementations of the following components will be registered:

• LinkDiscoverer
• a Jackson (1 or 2, dependning on what is on the classpath) module to correctly marshal the resource model classes into the appropriate representation.
