MongoMapField Query

[Bikash Patra]

Stuck with a problem guys,need urgent help.

I want to store a map field to my mongo 

Say 

myfollowers[String , User]

where User is a case class .. something like

case class User(name:String, age:String,location:String)

So in my collection , I have

object myFollowers extends MongoMapField[Coll,User](this)

But when I make a save , it says , its not able to serialize the case class ..

Any clues

Hi Bikash,

MongoMapField only works with "standard" types. You would need something like MongoJsonObjectListField, except for Maps.

Thank you very much Tim, 

Infact after a long fight I too came to the conclusion, that it not supported.

Forgive my ignorance, but is there any specific reason for not having this feature?

Thanks again.

No, just never got around to it.

You could easily add the functionality you want by overriding the asDBObject and setFromDBObject methods in your field.
