In order to create a message driven bean in Scala, using JBoss, I need to annotate the class as follows:
#MessageDriven(
activationConfig=Array(#ActivationConfigProperty(propertyName="destination", propertyValue="java:/queue/mail") ),
messageListenerInterface=classOf[MessageListener])
class MailService extends MessageListener {
def onMessage(m: Message) {
...
}
}
The trouble comes in that the annotation contains an attribute which itself is an annotation, and the Scala compiler doesn't seem to be able to cope with it.
The error message is: "illegal start of simple expression", highlighted around the # symbol on the second line, just after "activationConfig".
In Java I'd write the annotation as follows:
#MessageDriven(
activationConfig={#ActivationConfigProperty(propertyName="destination", propertyValue="java:/queue/mail")},
messageListenerInterface=MessageListener.class)
Is there a way in Scala to write the annotation, so that this works?
Is there any way to trick the compiler to generate the byte code in the way I want to?
Thanks,
John
try this
#MessageDriven(
activationConfig = Array[ActivationConfigProperty](
new ActivationConfigProperty(propertyName = "desctination", propertyValue = "java:/queue/mail")),
messageListenerInterface = classOf[MessageListener]
)
class MailService extends MessageListener {
def onMessage(m: Message) {
//...
}
}

I have a Object like this:
// I want to test this Object
object MyObject {
protected val retryHandler: HttpRequestRetryHandler = new HttpRequestRetryHandler {
def retryRequest(exception: IOException, executionCount: Int, context: HttpContext): Boolean = {
true // implementation
}
}
private val connectionManager: PoolingHttpClientConnectionManager = new PoolingHttpClientConnectionManager
val httpClient: CloseableHttpClient = HttpClients.custom
.setConnectionManager(connectionManager)
.setRetryHandler(retryHandler)
.build
def methodPost = {
//create new context and new Post instance
val post = new HttpPost("url")
val res = httpClient.execute(post, HttpClientContext.create)
// check response code and then take action based on response code
}
def methodPut = {
// same as methodPost except use HttpPut instead HttpPost
}
}
I want to test this object by mocking dependent objects like httpClient. How to achieve this? can i do it using Mokito or any better way? If yes. How? Is there a better design for this class?
Your problem is: you created hard-to test code. You can turn here to watch some videos to understand why that is.
The short answer: directly calling new in your production code always makes testing harder. You could be using Mockito spies (see here on how that works).
But: the better answer would be to rework your production code; for example to use dependency injection. Meaning: instead of creating the objects your class needs itself (by using new) ... your class receives those objects from somewhere.
The typical (java) approach would be something like:
public MyClass() { this ( new SomethingINeed() ); }
MyClass(SomethingINeed incoming) { this.somethign = incoming; }
In other words: the normal usage path still calls new directly; but for unit testing you provide an alternative constructor that you can use to inject the thing(s) your class under test depends on.
In Cucumber, how do i go about passing variables between step definition classes. Im trying to implement in Scala.
Looking around I have seen people suggest using Guice or Picocontainer or any other DI framework. But have not really come across an example in Scala.
For instance for the example below how do I pass the variable using DI ?
Provider.scala,
class Provider extends ScalaDsl with EN with Matchers with WebBrowser {
......
When("""I click the Done button$""") {
val doneButton = getElement(By.id(providerConnectionButton))
doneButton.click()
}
Then("""a new object should be created successfully""") {
// Pass the provider ID created in this step to Consumer definition
}
}
Consumer.scala,
class Consumer extends ScalaDsl with EN with Matchers with WebBrowser {
......
When("""^I navigate to Consumer page$""") { () =>
// providerId is the id from Provider above
webDriver.navigate().to(s"${configureUrl}${providerId}")
}
}
You can use ThreadLocal to solve your problem
Here's code snippet for solution.
object IDProvider{
val providerId = new ThreadLocal[String]
def getProviderId: String = {
providerId.get()
}
def setProviderId(providerId: String): Unit = {
providerId.set(providerId)
}
}
To access providerID across different step definitions. You can simply call IDProvider.getProviderId
And to set the value of providerID, simply call IDProvider.setProviderId(PROVIDER_ID)
I'm having a very simple restful controller, which looks like this:
class PersonController extends RestfulController<Person> {
static responseFormats = ['json', 'xml']
PersonController() {
super(Person)
}
}
However, now I want to add a search option to this. What is the Grails way of making this possible?
I thought of adding the following:
def search(Map params) {
println params
}
But that makes Grails (2.3) crash (| Error Fatal error during compilation org.apache.tools.ant.BuildException: Compilation Failed (Use --stacktrace to see the full trace)).
So what is the right way of adding this? I'm looking for some solution which I can call using http://localhost:8080/foo/person/search?q=erik
This is my UrlMappings:
static mappings = {
"/$controller/$action?/$id?(.${format})?"{
constraints {
// apply constraints here
}
}
"/rest/persons"(resources:'Person')
I've changed the above to:
def search() {
println params
}
And that doesn't give the compilation error anymore, but I still get this error:
TypeMismatchException occurred when processing request: [GET] /declaratie-web/rest/medicaties/search - parameters:
q: erik
Provided id of the wrong type for class nl.Person. Expected: class java.lang.Long, got class java.lang.String. Stacktrace follows:
org.hibernate.TypeMismatchException: Provided id of the wrong type for class nl.Person. Expected: class java.lang.Long, got class java.lang.String
I also found out that it doesn't matter how I call the controller:
http://localhost:8080/foo/person/search?q=erik
http://localhost:8080/foo/person/search222?q=erik
http://localhost:8080/foo/person/search39839329?q=erik
All fails with the above error, so it seems my method is ignored (maybe caused by my URLmapping?)
You really aren't being RESTful by doing that. q should just be a parameter for the index action. You can override that method to include your functionality.
def index(Integer max) {
params.max = Math.min(max ?: 10, 100)
def c = Person.createCriteria()
def results = c.list(params) {
//Your criteria here with params.q
}
respond results, model:[personCount: results.totalCount]
}
#james-kleeh solution is right, but you can do it more clean by override the listAllResources method which is called by index
#Override
protected List<Payment> listAllResources(Map params) {
Person.createCriteria().list(params) {
// Your criteria here with params.q
}
}
Is there a way to call a method in a Grails service, from a Scala class that is running on the same JVM?
I have seen something similar done from Groovy/Griffon but cannot figure out how to accomplish that in Grails. (http://www.jroller.com/aalmiray/entry/griffon_groovy_scala_working_together)
Basically, one of my Grails controllers calls some Scala code, which should return some values asynchronously. So, I guess, the only way to return those values is by calling back a method in a Grails service.
I found a way of doing it, inspired by the link in the question above, and one of the FAQs in the Grails website.
On the Scala side:
Declare an object similar to the following:
package scalaCallback
object ScalaCallback{
var cback: {def callback(example: String)} = null
def setCallback(cb: {def callback(example: String)}){
cback = cb
}
def invokeCallback(example: String){
if(callback != null) cback.callback(example)
}
}
On the Grails side:
Create a class in src/groovy similar to the following:
package groovyCallback
import org.codehaus.groovy.grails.commons.ApplicationHolder
class GroovyCallback{
private GroovyCallback() {}
private static final INSTANCE = new GroovyCallback()
static getInstance(){ return INSTANCE }
void callback(String example){
ApplicationHolder.application.mainContext.yourService.yourMethod(example)
}
}
In your BootStrap.groovy init add the following:
scalaCallback.cback = groovyCallback.GroovyCallback.getInstance()
When you call invokeCallback("example") in Scala, it will call yourService.yourMethod("example")
Note: the jar file with your Scala class should be in the lib folder of you Grails application
Your Grails service is a Spring bean. #Autowire the service into your Scala class (it will need to be a bean/#Component) and call the method.
EDIT - added example:
For example (using Java, not Scala but the approach is exactly the same):
Java code calling service:
package grailstest;
#Component
public class ServiceInjectionTester {
#Autowired TestService testService;
public String testTheService() {
return testService.serviceMethod();
}
}
Service:
class TestService {
String serviceMethod() {
return "success"
}
}
In Config.groovy:
grails.spring.bean.packages = [ "grailstest" ]
You can also wire your Java/Scala bean into your Grails classes:
class TestController {
#Autowired
ServiceInjectionTester serviceInjectionTester
def index = {
render(text: serviceInjectionTester.testTheService())
}
}

I got a question regarding binding and annotation.
I have the following class:
public class MailFacadeImpl implements MailFacade {
private final PersonDao personDao;
#Inject
public MailFacadeImpl(#Mail PersonDao personDao) {
super();
this.personDao = personDao;
}
The PersonDao is annotated with a custom annotation.
I would like to be able to test this annotation inside the class that implement AbstractModule.
here is a piece of code:
bind(new TypeLiteral<SecurityRulesFactory<Person>>(){}).toProvider(FactoryProvider.newFactory(
new TypeLiteral<SecurityRulesFactory<Person>>(){}, new TypeLiteral<MailSecurityRulesCrdb>(){}));
I would like to have somthing similar to :
if(PersonDAO is annotated with(Mail.class) ){
bind(new TypeLiteral<SecurityRulesFactory<Person>>(){}).toProvider(FactoryProvider.newFactory(
new TypeLiteral<SecurityRulesFactory<Person>>(){}, new TypeLiteral<MailSecurityRulesCrdb>(){}));
}
Do you think it's possible?
thx for your help :-)
Have a nice friday!
It's not clear why you want your module to do this test. Instead, your module can specify how to get or create an instance of PersonDao for injection points annotated with Mail:
bind(PersonDao.class).annotatedWith(Mail.class).to(EmailAwarePersonDao.class);
Note that your PersonDao.class.isAnnotationPresent(Mail.class) won't help here, since the PersonDao class itself isn't annotated with Mail; the parameter to the MailFacadeImpl constructor has that annotation. There are ways to test for that, but if you are trying to do that from a Guice module, you're probably doing something wrong.
