Michael Herrmann commented on JAMES-1241: ----------------------------------------- Hi, I'm having a similar problem when I try to set a Mail attribute value to an instance of one of my own classes. According to the JavaDoc http://docs.oracle.com/javaee/5/api/javax/jms/Message.html, "The setObjectProperty method accepts values of class Boolean, Byte, Short, Integer, Long, Float, Double, and String. An attempt to use any other class must throw a JMSException. The getObjectProperty method only returns values of class Boolean, Byte, Short, Integer, Long, Float, Double, and String." I'm not getting a JMSException, but I'm getting a String back when trying to read the attribute, just as in the description of this issue. The SVN-commit to this issue looks like it assumes that set-/getObjectProperty can work with any Serializable, not just Boolean, Byte, ..., String. Isn't that a dangerous assumption? Thanks! > Mail Attributes retrieved as String even though set as Boolean > -------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: JAMES-1241 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JAMES-1241 > Project: JAMES Server > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Queue > Affects Versions: 3.0-M2 > Reporter: Andrzej Rusin > Assignee: Norman Maurer > Fix For: 3.0-beta3 > > > I set a boolean attribute to a Mail: > boolean smartHostSSL = false; > mail.setAttribute(SMARTHOSTSSL, smartHostSSL); > and then I retireve it in another method: > boolean smartHostSSL = (Boolean)mail.getAttribute(SMARTHOSTSSL); > and there's an exception on this very line: > java.lang.ClassCastException: java.lang.String cannot be cast to > java.lang.Boolean -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
