Unable to generate an adapter from a wrapper around ArrayList
Closed this issue · 4 comments
I have a Class with nothing in it's class body that basically just wraps ArrayList like so:
public class Customers extends ArrayList<Costumer>
When trying to generate an adapter for this, the compileJava step fails with the following error:
Non public field com.company.project.folder.Customers size with no matching setter or constructor?
Am I missing something or is this not supported?
That's not gonna serialize properly yeah. It's not a good idea to extend the built-in java collections regardless.
If you have some logic you want to isolate in a collection class, I would suggest the below solution:
public class Costumer {
ArrayList<Costumer> costumer;
public Costumer newMethod() {
// ... your logic goes here.
}
}Unfortunately I own neither the Customer nor the Customers class so my test above was just me trying to figure out a way to make it work somehow. Thanks anyway for the rapid response.
Yeah, that will be my next step, although I would have preferred to stay as closely aligned to the original data model as possible, especially considering how nested it is.
