Problem with when and boolean

[Jackie G.]

I have the following in my code...

Mockito.when(typedProperty.containsKey("requestedShipDate")).thenReturn(new
Boolean(true));

It gives me a compile error saying that the method is not valid for
arguments (boolean). I think I might have to use a primitive wrapper
of something but I am not sure how.

I am using the Java 1.4 version of Mockito 1.8

Thanks

Jackie

Hello Jackie,

Unfortunately you cannot use Mockito with Java 1.4. The code base use features of Java 1.5.

As a side note in your line of code, you are using autoboxing, however this feature is not available in Java 1.4.

In similar situation you will have to wrap yourself primary types.
Mockito.when(new Boolean(typedProperty.containsKey("requestedShipDate"))).thenReturn(new Boolean(true));

However as I say, Mockito won't work with Java 1.4.

I think the old version of easymock might do the job in Java 1.4, but it's trickier to put in place.

Hope that helps,

What about...

http://code.google.com/p/mockito/wiki/MockitoForJvm14 ?

This is what I am using

Ok I forgot about this one, this version is not officially supported by the team. As said in the wiki page, James Carr is the maintainer of this port.

Anyway the problems is the same : autoboxing is not supported in JDK prior version 5!

typedProperty.containsKey("requestedShipDate")

This method returns a native type.

I see I will try this out after I get back to that environment.
