Ignore unmapped fields in pojo deserialization

A recent ticket (00664772) with the mongodb support team confirm that the following case is not handled by the Java driver: class Foo { int x; int y; } I can successfully write and read it. However, if the Document has extra fields, it cannot be deserialized and no option exists to allow this behavior: { x:123, y:456, z:789 } // why can't I ignore 'z'? My suggestion is, provide an annotation to support this behavior: @BsonIgnoreUnmappedFields class Foo { int x; int y; }
