Hi All, Any pointes are much appreciated. OFBiz Version : 17.04.03
*Summary:* I'm trying to use Service ECA on return of a Service method to invoke another Service method, i'm able to successfully call a service that is defined using auto-attributes, However when i invoke a service that is defined using non-auto attributes i get an error message > Error running the simple-method: java.util.HashMap cannot be cast to org.apache.ofbiz.entity.GenericValue, Is this an expected behavior or am i missing something? *Details:* * Scenario 1: *Successfully able to invoke a service *updateProductCategory* with set operation (that is defined using auto-attributes), from the return of service *createProductCategory* SECA Definition: ----------------------- <eca service="createProductCategory" event="return"> <condition field-name="productCategoryId" operator="is-not-empty"/> <set field-name="description" value="Updated" /> <action service="updateProductCategory" mode="sync"/> </eca> Called Service Definition: (auto-attributes) ----------------------------------- <service name="updateProductCategory" default-entity-name="ProductCategory" engine="simple" location="component://product/minilang/product/category/CategoryServices.xml" invoke="updateProductCategory" auth="true"> <description>Update an ProductCategory</description> <auto-attributes include="pk" mode="IN" optional="false"/> <auto-attributes include="nonpk" mode="IN" optional="true"/> <override name="productCategoryTypeId" optional="false"/> </service> *Scenario 1: *Invoking a service *duplicateProductCategory with set Operation *(that is defined using non-auto-attributes), from the return of the *same service as above* i.e. createProductCategory results in an error > Error in simple-method [Duplicate a ProductCategory [file:/home/clintu2/Downloads/git/integrin_enterprise/com/integrin/erp/erp-17.12/applications/product/minilang/product/category/CategoryServices.xml#duplicateProductCategory]]: Error running the simple-method: java.util.HashMap cannot be cast to org.apache.ofbiz.entity.GenericValuenull SECA Definition: ----------------------- <eca service="createProductCategory" event="return"> <condition field-name="productCategoryId" operator="is-not-empty"/> <set field-name="productCategoryId" value="R${productCategoryId}" /> <set field-name="oldProductCategoryId" env-name="productCategoryId" /> <set field-name="duplicateContent" value="Y"/> <set field-name="duplicateParentRollup" value="Y"/> <set field-name="duplicateChildRollup" value="Y"/> <set field-name="duplicateMembers" value="Y"/> <set field-name="duplicateCatalogs" value="Y"/> <set field-name="duplicateFeatureCategories" value="Y"/> <set field-name="duplicateFeatureGroups" value="Y"/> <set field-name="duplicateAttributes" value="Y"/> <set field-name="duplicateRoles" value="Y"/> <action service="duplicateProductCategory" mode="sync"/> </eca> Called Service Definition: (Non auto-attributes) --------------------------------- <service name="duplicateProductCategory" engine="simple" location="component://product/minilang/product/category/CategoryServices.xml" invoke="duplicateProductCategory" auth="true"> <description>Duplicate a Product Category using from oldProductCategoryId to a new productCategoryId</description> <attribute name="productCategoryId" type="String" mode="IN" optional="false"/> <attribute name="oldProductCategoryId" type="String" mode="IN" optional="false"/> <attribute name="duplicateContent" type="String" mode="IN" optional="true"/> <attribute name="duplicateParentRollup" type="String" mode="IN" optional="true"/> <attribute name="duplicateChildRollup" type="String" mode="IN" optional="true"/> <attribute name="duplicateMembers" type="String" mode="IN" optional="true"/> <attribute name="duplicateCatalogs" type="String" mode="IN" optional="true"/> <attribute name="duplicateFeatureCategories" type="String" mode="IN" optional="true"/> <attribute name="duplicateFeatureGroups" type="String" mode="IN" optional="true"/> <attribute name="duplicateAttributes" type="String" mode="IN" optional="true"/> <attribute name="duplicateRoles" type="String" mode="IN" optional="true"/> </service> *Result:* Scenario 1 succeeded [image: image.png] Scenaro 2 Failed [image: image.png] While researching the issue i came across the below thread, which suggests that the above isssue is expected for XRPC and SOAP, but wasn't sure this is expected for SECA on service defined with non-auto-attributes http://ofbiz.135035.n4.nabble.com/Re-How-to-pass-org-apache-ofbiz-entity-GenericValue-using-XMLRPC-td4721139.html
