Hi I've configured my cache using the default values from apache site. The cache is being configured, I confirmed cuz it gets the name I speicifed in cache.ccf.
Now, if I try to put a Long, String or other wrapper objects as keys, everything works fine. But the moment I supply my own object as key, I get CacheException (with no further cause or explanation below it) - Exception trace attached at the end. Also, from the empty cache if I try to get an object (I expect null) with my key, I get a ClassCastException! - Again, if I try to get using Long, String etc, it returns null all right. The custom object which I am using as key contained a long field and an enum field. I changed it to long and int as an experiment, but the result was the same. Is there some place I need to also tell the cache about the type of the keys I'll be storing? Is enum a problem? I gathered from the site and from the signature of put() and get() that it can be any Object. I am hoping there is some simple explanation for this behavior which I don't know. Will be glad for any light. PS: Classpath is not a problem, I confirmed by instantiating a key object above the get and it happens all right. Thanks --- Pooja.
