Previously, the logic that determined the field’s type would incorrectly look at the contents of the array. For example, if the array contained one or more objects, the field’s type would be resolved as Object rather than Array. This commit updates JsonFieldPath to record when a path explicitly identifies an array so that the array itself is used to determine the field’s type rather than its contents. Closes gh-292
Spring REST Docs 
Overview
The primary goal of this project is to make it easy to document RESTful services by combining content that's been hand-written using Asciidoctor with auto-generated examples produced with the Spring MVC Test framework. The result is intended to be an easy-to-read user guide, akin to GitHub's API documentation for example, rather than the fully automated, dense API documentation produced by tools like Swagger.
For a broader introduction see the Documenting RESTful APIs presentation. Both the slides and a video recording are available.
