JPA 和 Spring 引导：integer 来自 DB (H2) 未按预期映射到 Z84E2C64F38F78BAZEA5C64F38F78BAZEA5

Question

I am refactoring part of an Spring Boot 2.3.1 application, in which previous developers have used Integer type (with values 0 or 1) instead of boolean a bit everywhere in the code.

But I am noticing something I didn't expect: I've also changed the field type in the entity class, and when loading it from the DB, I get an error:

[2021-05-04T22:27:36.036Z] [main] [24] [ERROR] Parameter value [0] did not match expected type [java.lang.Boolean (n/a)]; nested exception is java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Parameter value [0] did not match expected type [java.lang.Boolean (n/a)]

This happens when running the existing tests, with H2.

the field created by Liquibase at test start up is:

INTERNAL_COMMENT BOOLEAN DEFAULT TRUE

my field used to be:

private Integer internalComment;

and it was working.

Now it's:

private Boolean internalComment;

and it's not working.

In the orm.xml, I have this simple mapping:

        <basic name="internalComment">
            <column name="INTERNAL_COMMENT" nullable="true" />
        </basic> 

My repository class is:

public interface JpaCommentEntityRepository
    extends CrudRepository<TicketCommentEntity, Long>, JpaSpecificationExecutor<TicketCommentEntity>

I've tried several things (making the Java field boolean instead of Boolean, declaring the column with various types like NUMBER(1,0)), but to no avail...

The only thing that works is when I change back to Integer, and perform a manual mapping to boolean when creating my domain object from the entit class.. So at least, I am sure this is the field causing problem, and not something else.

So in a way, my refactoring is already improving the code: the only place where the field is not a boolean is in the entity class.. but it forces be to add extra code for the mapping... and this should work directly, right?

So I guess I am missing something, but I am running out of ideas on how to investigate / fix this.

Any help would be much appreciated, thanks !

Answer 1

as it could be expected, it was a stupid mistake...

there was a method in the CrudRepository I have:

@Nonnull
List<TicketCommentEntity> findByTicketIdAndInternalComment(long ticketId, Integer internalComment);

for which the field type needed to be changed to boolean:

@Nonnull
List<TicketCommentEntity> findByTicketIdAndInternalComment(long ticketId,boolean internalComment);

That's what the error message was about !
