Can someone please help. I have read multiple post on this subject and tried to find relief in the reference manual, but nothing helps.

I'm getting this error.

There was 1 error:
1) testInsertHighestDegreeList(org.ihets.ims.dao.hibernate.HibernateInquiryListsDaoTest)java.lang.ClassCastException

This is my mapping:

<class name="org.ihets.ims.HighestDegree" table="HighestDegree">
<id name="pk" type="long" column="pk">
<generator class="sequence">
<param name="sequence">highestDegree_pk_seq</param>
</generator>
</id>
<property name="value" column="value" type="string"/>
</class>



This is my class:

public class HighestDegree implements Serializable {

/** identifier field */
private Long pk;

/** nullable persistent field */
private String value;

/** full constructor */
public HighestDegree(String value) {
this.value = value;
}

/** default constructor */
public HighestDegree() {
}

public Long getPk() {
return this.pk;
}

public void setPk(Long pk) {
this.pk = pk;
}

public String getValue() {
return this.value;
}

public void setValue(String value) {
this.value = value;
}

public String toString() {
return new ToStringBuilder(this)
.append("pk", getPk())
.toString();
}

}

try changing
<id name="pk" type="long" column="pk">

to
<id name="pk" column="pk">

type is not the same on your mapping and pojo

Im sorry I was totally useing the wrong method. I should not have been using the load method.

Newbe.
