Describe the bug

I want to use @JsonCreator on Java enum to achieve deserialization supporting both DELEGATING mode and PROPERTIES mode.
But I found that it may be unavailable for version 2.13.1 (it's ok for version 2.19.2) .
Is there any other way to achieve that for version 2.13.1, or is upgrading the version the only option?

Code:

@Getter
@RequiredArgsConstructor
@JsonFormat(shape = JsonFormat.Shape.OBJECT)
@JsonIncludeProperties({"code", "desc"})
public enum ChannelEnum {

    ALIPAY(0, "支付宝"),
    WECHAT(1, "微信")
    ;
    private final int code;
    private final String desc;

    @Nullable
    @JsonCreator
    private static ChannelEnum ofCode(@JsonProperty("code") String code) {
        if (code == null) {
            return null;
        }
        return Arrays.stream(values()).filter(channelEnum -> channelEnum.getCode() == Integer.parseInt(code)).findFirst().orElse(null);
    }
}

public class CreatorTest extends TestCase {

    private final ObjectMapper objectMapper = new ObjectMapper();

    public void testProperties() throws JsonProcessingException {
        String json = "{\"code\": 1}";
        ChannelEnum channel = objectMapper.readValue(json, ChannelEnum.class);
        Assert.assertSame(channel, ChannelEnum.WECHAT);
    }

    public void testDelegating() throws JsonProcessingException {
        String json = "1";
        ChannelEnum channel = objectMapper.readValue(json, ChannelEnum.class);
        Assert.assertSame(channel, ChannelEnum.WECHAT);
    }

    public void testNoCodeProperty() throws JsonProcessingException {
        String json = "{\"desc\": \"支付宝\"}";
        ChannelEnum channel = objectMapper.readValue(json, ChannelEnum.class);
        Assert.assertNull(channel);
    }
}

2.13.x is not an open branch so if it does not work, no fix will be coming -- but you could try latest 2.13 patch, 2.13.5. I don't see any Enum-related fixes in release notes tho.

However: even with later versions, a single Constructor can only be used in one mode: either Delegating or Properties-based. There is issue #5084 to consider allowing that but it has not yet been implemented.
So I am not sure how this would be working currently for Enums, in any version?

Alright, I want to use @jsonformat(shape = JsonFormat.Shape.OBJECT) on an enum and allow the front end to request using the Delegating mode. However, if Delegating and Properties are incompatible, it could lead to a very awkward situation: the result serialized from the enum itself cannot be deserialized.
