转换为同一类时出现java.lang.ClassCastException-ClassLoader问题

Question

So, I using Hibernate and Spring MVC to build a webapp. I am been running a few queries on different tables and all work as intended, except for one table. I am be looking into this problem for a while, and realized it is a problem related to two different Java class loaders loading the same class.

I manage, in a way to fix the problem, by deploying the webapp it to a Tomcat server, but when I try to use Spring Boot, it simply doesn't work. For now, I can continue developing, but I rather use Spring Boot and also, I feel like I am just ignoring an issue that could somehow affect me in the future. The method that is causing everything, goes as follow.

public Usuario findById(String userId) {
    Session session = factory.getCurrentSession();
    Transaction tx = session.beginTransaction();
    try {
        return session.get(Usuario.class, userId);
    } catch (Exception e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
        return null;
    }
    finally {
        tx.commit();
    }
}

Here is my detailed stack trace.

Although, I already know what the issue is, I still can't find a solution anywhere. I tried quite a few methods that I found, but to no avail. The error has not been fixed. Please, let me know if you need more information.

Update

The following question getting ClassCastException when calling getSession().get() in Hibernate , although similar it didn't solve my problem. What I am trying to achieve, is to be able to run it using Spring Boot. I managed to make it run in a Tomcat server, but Spring Boot just won't work.

Update #2

After digging a bit more, I realized the problem was a result of using Spring Dev Tools. After commenting out the maven dependency, the problem disappeared. Now, the problem is that I can't hot swap resources anymore. Has anyone faced an issue like this before?

Answer 1

I got the same problem, just solved it by using the correct SessionFactory version, in my case that I updated the sessionFactory to: org.springframework.orm.hibernate4.LocalSessionFactoryBean from: org.springframework.orm.hibernate5.LocalSessionFactoryBean (I'm using hibernate5)

Hope that helps,
