Issue

  • The json-enabled value specifies whether or not the entity should be annotated for JSON serialization. By default, if the remote-service value is true, then the json-enabled value is true.

  • When setting this attribute to false in service.xml, and rebuilding the service, this does not have an effect on the generated code, I still see the *Service interface annotated with @JSONWebService.

Environment

  • Liferay DXP 7.0

Resolution

  • Update build.gradle for your service with version 1.0.304 of service builder
    dependencies {
    	...
    	serviceBuilder group: "com.liferay", name: "com.liferay.portal.tools.service.builder", version: "1.0.304"
    }
  • Run "blade gw buildService" and confirm that the "JSONWebService" does not appear in the file
