Jackson generic enum deserialization

Question

I have a generic class that has a list field as following:

//-- Parent class
public abstract class Attribute<T> {
   protected String name;
   protected List<T> allowableValues = new ArrayList<>();

   //-- Other kinds of stuff
}

//-- Child
public class EnumAttribute extends Attribute<Enum> {
  //-- Other fields and methods
}

In class EnumAttribute generic type is Enum which is a java data type and is the parent of an enum that any developer can declare in source, like public enum Color{RED, BLUE}.

Note: All enums implicitly extend java.lang.Enum. Reference

This means any enum that is an EnumAttribute and the allowableValues field in super class fills with related enums, for example List<Color> allowableValues = new ArrayList<>()

I'm using Jackson to serialize/deserialize objects.

So the question:

When I serialize an object of EnumAttribute, Jackson works properly, but on the deserializing time, it can not detect which enum should pick.

Let me follow up with an example:

Gendar enum:

public enum Gendar{
   MALE, FEMALE
}

Color enum:

public enum Color{
   RED, BLUE, GREEN
}

We can initiate an object of EnumAttribute from both of the above enums.

And this is the EnumAttribute object that has been serialized to JSON:

{
   "name": "color",
   "allowableValues": ["BLUE", "GREEN"]
}

When I want to deserialize the above object, Jackson rise an error which says: can not find a constructor in Enum, while the concrete enum is `Color.

Note: I know one way to solve the problem is by defining a custom deserializer for Enum.

But I'd like to know are there any other ways to solve the problem?

Or Is there any best practice for this?
