Serialization of same variable twice once with field name and other with localName provided in @JacksonXmlProperty

[Mohit-Kumar23]

I have created a class of following structure in Kotlin:
class Specification
{
..... // Other fields

   @JacksonXmlProperty(localName = "RN")
     var rALNoField : Int? = null
	set(value) {
		field = value
	}

   ..... //Other fields

}

Now, when the "Specification" class is serialized, the xml contains two instances of rALNoField:

1. With tag RN (that is correct)
2. With tag ralnoField (which is duplicate of same variable)

This happens due to naming of variable, when I rename the variable to "ralnoField" it works fine and only RN is output. But when variable name is "rALNoField" it output 2 instance of same variable as mentioned above.

Ok, pretty sure this is not XML-specific and has to do with name-mangling.
But more importantly, is Kotlin-specific; will move to Kotlin mode issue tracker .

note: My hypothesis being that use of @JsonProperty, output as JSON would exhibit same duplication. Which I think is due to either name used, or due to way annotations are associated for Kotlin classes.

Either way, issue cannot remain at XML module since wrt reproduction (cannot have dependency to Kotlin module).

A possible solution is to enable KotrinPropertyNameAsImplicitName.
