java.util.TreeMap$Entry.entrySet() is applicable for argument types: () values: []

Question

I have ChatDayWrappers which contains all messages in the database between the two parties for one day.

How can I get the the chatRowWrappers with the 47 items from the object chatWrapper.getChatDayWrappers()[0]; ?

Code

Object object = chatWrapper.getChatDayWrappers()[0];            
getLogger().info("chatWrapper:  " + object.getClass().getName());

output

java.util.TreeMap$Entry

Another try:

I have tired the following:

Object object[] = chatWrapper.getChatDayWrappers()[0].entrySet().toArray();             
getLogger().info("chatWrapper:  " + object.getClass().getName());

but I got this error:

No signature of method: java.util.TreeMap$Entry.entrySet() is applicable for argument types: () values: [] Possible solutions: every(): groovy.lang.MissingMethodException: No signature of method: java.util.TreeMap$Entry.entrySet() is applicable for argument types: () values: []

Answer 1

The issue here is:

public Object[] getChatDayWrappers() {
        return this.chatDayWrappers.entrySet().toArray();
    } 

returns an Object array that you cannot directly access the ChatDisplayDayWrapper object inside the map. Instead, you could modify your getter to:

public List<ChatDisplayRowWrapper> getChatDayWrappers() {
    return m.entrySet().stream().map(entry -> entry.getValue()).collect(Collectors.toList());        }
}

Answer 2

Your function Object[] getChatDayWrappers :

this.chatDayWrappers.entrySet().toArray()

returns an array of Map$Entry . Eg:

groovy:000> [1:1].entrySet().toArray().first().getClass()
===> class java.util.LinkedHashMap$Entry

An Entry is not a map, it's just an entry. An entry holds key and value (but not entrySet() ; this is where your code fails). Eg

groovy:000> [1:1].entrySet().toArray().first().key
===> 1
groovy:000> [1:1].entrySet().toArray().first().value
===> 1
groovy:000> [1:1].entrySet().toArray().first().entrySet()
ERROR groovy.lang.MissingMethodException:
No signature of method: java.util.LinkedHashMap$Entry.entrySet() is applicable for argument types: () values: []
Possible solutions: every()

So to get the display wrapper you need to call value in Groovy, or since your code looks more like Java anyway .getValue() to get the ChatDisplayDayWrapper .
