Can I use newer version of Jackson than bundled in Websphere 8.0?
<p>I am developing an application under Websphere Application Server v8.0 and I need to use <code>org.codehaus.jackson:jackson-core-asl</code> and <code>org.codehaus.jackson:jackson-mapper-asl</code> version 1.9.2 (mandatory).</p>

<p>On WAS 8.0 such libraries are already included in his runtime, but his version is older. It's 1.6.2 (you can see it in these images):

and

<p>I added 1.9.2 jars on the classpath, but the application uses libraries that are bundled in WAS (1.6.2), ignoring the ones in classpath.</p>

<p>Because of this, I can't use some jackson features in 1.9.2 version, that were not in 1.6.2.</p>

<p>My question is: Is possible to configure WAS to not use jackson from his own bundled jars, and let the application to use jars from classpath?</p>
