GWT: The response could not be deserialized

I'm using GWT (2.4) with Spring integrated as in this article. I have problem with getting list of User from database (Hibernate) and populate DataGrid with it. When i call greetingService.allUsers() method, I'm getting error (onFailure()):

com.google.gwt.user.client.rpc.IncompatibleRemoteServiceException: The response could not be deserialized

Anybody helps with that? Below some pieces of code. Full working project is here.

  public void onModuleLoad() {
    // ...
    greetingService.allUsers(
        new AsyncCallback<List<User>>(){
            @Override
            public void onFailure(Throwable caught) {
                caught.printStackTrace();
            }
            @Override
            public void onSuccess(List<User> result) {
                GWT.log("SIZE: "+result.size());
                dataGrid.setRowData(result);
            }
        }
    );
    // ...
 }

GreetingServiceImpl

@Override
public List<User> allUsers() {
    return userDAO.findAll();
}

User

@Entity
@Table(name = "users")
public class User implements Serializable, IsSerializable {

    @Id
    private Long id;

    // only Strings and one Date
    private String login;
    private String password;
    private String firstname;
    private String lastname;
    private Date date;
}

I solved my problem by updating GwtRpcController according to this. Now deserialization works good without using any transfer object. Working GwtRpcController below.

import javax.servlet.ServletContext;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse;
import org.springframework.web.context.ServletContextAware;
import org.springframework.web.servlet.ModelAndView;
import org.springframework.web.servlet.mvc.Controller;
import com.google.gwt.user.client.rpc.IncompatibleRemoteServiceException;
import com.google.gwt.user.client.rpc.RemoteService;
import com.google.gwt.user.client.rpc.SerializationException;
import com.google.gwt.user.server.rpc.RPC;
import com.google.gwt.user.server.rpc.RPCRequest;
import com.google.gwt.user.server.rpc.RemoteServiceServlet;

public class GwtRpcController extends RemoteServiceServlet implements
        Controller, ServletContextAware {

    private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;

    private ServletContext servletContext;

    private RemoteService remoteService;

    private Class remoteServiceClass;

    public ModelAndView handleRequest(HttpServletRequest request,
            HttpServletResponse response) throws Exception {
        super.doPost(request, response);
        return null;
    }

    @Override
    public String processCall(String payload) throws SerializationException {
        try {

            RPCRequest rpcRequest = RPC.decodeRequest(payload, this.remoteServiceClass, this);
            onAfterRequestDeserialized(rpcRequest);

            // delegate work to the spring injected service
            return RPC.invokeAndEncodeResponse(this.remoteService, rpcRequest.getMethod(), rpcRequest.getParameters(), rpcRequest.getSerializationPolicy());
        } catch (IncompatibleRemoteServiceException ex) {
            getServletContext().log("An IncompatibleRemoteServiceException was thrown while processing this call.", ex);
            return RPC.encodeResponseForFailure(null, ex);
        }
    }

    @Override
    public ServletContext getServletContext() {
        return servletContext;
    }

    @Override
    public void setServletContext(ServletContext servletContext) {
        this.servletContext = servletContext;
    }

    public void setRemoteService(RemoteService remoteService) {
        this.remoteService = remoteService;
        this.remoteServiceClass = this.remoteService.getClass();
    }

}
