Issue
I'm using the following code to convert char[] to string, but it is throwing:
java.lang.ClassCastException: java.lang.String cannot be cast to [C
char[] charArray = user.getUserPassword();
String userPassword = String.valueOf(charArray);
Here user.getUserPassword() returns char[]. I also tried the following:
String userPassword = new String(charArray);
But it also throws the same exception. (I'm using java 8.)
The complete stack trace;
java.lang.ClassCastException: java.lang.String cannot be cast to [C

This is the UserDAOImpl class;
@Repository("userDAO")
public class UserDAOImpl implements UserDAO{
@Autowired
private SessionFactory sessionFactory;
@SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
@Override
public List<Object[]> login(String UserName, String UserPassword) {
Session session = sessionFactory.openSession();
String hql = HqlConstant.UserQuery;
Query query = session.createQuery(hql);
query.setParameter("UserName", UserName);
query.setParameter("UserPassword", UserPassword);
List<Object[]> list = query.list();
session.close();
return list;
}
}
This is the HQL query;
from UserModel um inner join um.userRoleModel where um.UserName = :UserName and um.UserPassword = :UserPassword
Solution
My theory on what happens:
You put a String into
query.setParameter("UserPassword", UserPassword);
BUT
As you said, your userPassword property for your user Object is of type char[]
Now hibernate is a quite clever tool - it would recognize that object type for userPassword is char[] and then tries to set that into the generated query. But you passed a String.
Try this for once:
query.setParameter("UserPassword", UserPassword.toCharArray());
in your login method.
