CustomConversion no longer allows for GenericConverter without specifying ConvertibleTypes [DATACMNS-1830]

[spring-projects-issues]

Łukasz Świątek opened DATACMNS-1830 and commented

Changes to constructor in CustomConversions, made it impossible to register GenericConverter which does not specify ConvertibleTypes. Such converters will be filtered out.

Care to elaborate on your use-case? What change in CustomConversions do you mean, we didn't change/remove any constructors in the past releases

use case :  json converter ( model classes to json, json to model classes)

this converter could probably work with Convertible types (Object, String) but i didn't get to test it yet,
