[hibernate-users] org.hibernate.HibernateException: Error while accessing enum.values(): class com.mksoft.fbautomate.domain.Account$Type

[Misha Koshelev]

This error is driving me nuts!!!

Caused by:  java.lang.NoSuchMethodException:
com.mksoft.fbautomate.domain.Account$Type.values()

The same exact class works fine in a separate Groovy file.

Any ideas/help much appreciated.

Most confusing...

http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/java/lang/Enum.html

has no values() method!

Here is my class:

    @Entity class Account {
      @Id @GeneratedValue(strategy=GenerationType.AUTO)
      public Long id
      enum Type {MYVALUE}
      @Enumerated(EnumType.STRING)
      public Type type
      public String email
      //  @org.hibernate.annotations.Type(type="encryptedString")
      public String pass
      public String fullName
      String toString() { "type:\""+type+"\",email:\""+email
+"\""+",fullName=\""+fullName+"\"" }
    }

Thank you!
Misha

p.s. for the record if I move the enum _outside_ the entity class like

enum type {MYVALUE}

@Entity class Account {
...
}

all is fine. Any ideas??? Thank you. I am using Gradle.
