Jackson json deserialization, ignore root element from json

An example taken from TestRootName.java in https://github.com/FasterXML/jackson-databind may give a better way of doing this. Specifically using withRootName(""):

private ObjectMapper rootMapper()
{
    ObjectMapper mapper = new ObjectMapper();
    mapper.configure(SerializationFeature.WRAP_ROOT_VALUE, true);
    mapper.configure(DeserializationFeature.UNWRAP_ROOT_VALUE, true);
    return mapper;
}

public void testRootUsingExplicitConfig() throws Exception
{
    ObjectMapper mapper = new ObjectMapper();
    ObjectWriter writer = mapper.writer().withRootName("wrapper");
    String json = writer.writeValueAsString(new Bean());
    assertEquals("{\"wrapper\":{\"a\":3}}", json);

    ObjectReader reader = mapper.reader(Bean.class).withRootName("wrapper");
    Bean bean = reader.readValue(json);
    assertNotNull(bean);

    // also: verify that we can override SerializationFeature as well:
    ObjectMapper wrapping = rootMapper();
    json = wrapping.writer().withRootName("something").writeValueAsString(new Bean());
    assertEquals("{\"something\":{\"a\":3}}", json);
    json = wrapping.writer().withRootName("").writeValueAsString(new Bean());
    assertEquals("{\"a\":3}", json);

    bean = wrapping.reader(Bean.class).withRootName("").readValue(json);
    assertNotNull(bean);
}
