java.lang.ClassCastException: java.util.HashMap cannot be cast to com.jms.testing.spring.InstructionMessage

Question

I would like to extends question to another query from the issue: Cannot convert object of type to JMS message. Supported message payloads are: String, byte array, Map<String,?>, Serializable object

I am getting the below error

SpringJmsInstructionMessageConsumer.java

public class SpringJmsInstructionMessageConsumer {

    private JmsTemplate jmsTemplate;

    public JmsTemplate getJmsTemplate() {
        return jmsTemplate;
    }

    public void setJmsTemplate(JmsTemplate jmsTemplate) {
        this.jmsTemplate = jmsTemplate;
    }

    public InstructionMessage receiveMessage() throws JMSException {
        InstructionMessage instructionMessage = (InstructionMessage) getJmsTemplate().receiveAndConvert(); //line-20, its breaking here
        return instructionMessage;  
    }
}

On line-20, code is breaking of above code

@Test
    public void test() throws JMSException{
        InstructionMessage m1 = new InstructionMessage(10,10,10,10,10);
        System.out.println("Sending person " + m1);
        springJmsProducer.sendMessage(m1);

        InstructionMessage m2 = new InstructionMessage(5,5,5,5,5);
        System.out.println("Sending person " + m2);
        springJmsProducer.sendMessage(m2);

        InstructionMessage m3 = new InstructionMessage(0,0,0,0,0);
        System.out.println("Sending person " + m3);
        springJmsProducer.sendMessage(m3);

        System.out.println("~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~");


        System.out.println("Consumer receives " + springJmsConsumer.receiveMessage());
    }

Answer 1

as said, due to use of default 1L, simply add a generated serial Version ID!

public class InstructionMessage implements Serializable{

private static final long serialVersionUID = -295422703255886286L;
