Scala/Play ClassCastException: Cannot cast java.lang.Integer to java.lang.Long] Ask

[Sarav Ramaswamy]

I have been having this issue for some time where Play will face an "cannot cast an integer to long" exception.

play.api.http.HttpErrorHandlerExceptions$$anon$1: Execution exception[[ClassCastException: Cannot cast java.lang.Integer to java.lang.Long]]

This happens at the line with "msgService.processMsg" call in the below code fragment:

def msgHandler(params: String) = auth.SecuredAction.async { implicit request =>
  usersService.findUserByEmail(request.identity.email) flatMap {
    case Some(ue) =>
      val p = Json.parse(params.toLowerCase())
      val op = (p \ "op").get(0).as[JsString].value
      val prodId = (p \ "prodid").get(0).as[JsString].value
      op match {
        case "get-inventory" =>
          msgService.processMsg(prodId.toLong, ue) flatMap { case res =>
            Future.successful(Redirect(controllers.www.routes.Dashboard.dashboard))
          }
        case _ =>
          Future.successful(Redirect(controllers.www.routes.Dashboard.dashboard))
      }
    case None =>
      Future.successful(Redirect(controllers.www.routes.Dashboard.dashboard))
  }
}

...
def amend(inventory: Inventory): Future[Long] = {
  db.run(inventorys.withFilter(_.id === inventory.id).update(inventory)).mapTo[Long]
} 

def processMsg(prodId: Long, user: UserEntry): Future[Long] = {
  findInventoryByProdIdAndUserId(prodId, user.id) flatMap {
    case Some(inventory) =>
      var updInventory = inventory.copy(status = InventoryStatus.UPDATED)
      Logger.debug(s"Updating inventory: ${updInventory}")
      amend(updInventory)
    case None =>
      throw new Exception("No inventory entry found!!")
  }
}

If I remove the flatMap and keep it like:

msgService.processMsg(prodId.toLong, ue)

then I don't see the error.

Also, if I return Future[Int] instead of Future[Inventory] I don't see the error.

I have used this pattern in few other places in the code but so far haven't been able to isolate what causes this problem. How do I get rid of this error?

Hi Sarav,

The problem comes from mapTo[Long] which try to cast an Int as a Long.

Hi Mariot,

Thank you so much, that helped. Thought I was trying to get the id of the object being updated but l believe returned Int is number of rows updated.
