The following error is thrown by KaptPlugin
Invalid return type: Select methods must return one of [ENTITY, OPTIONAL_ENTITY, FUTURE_OF_ENTITY, FUTURE_OF_OPTIONAL_ENTITY, PAGING_ITERABLE, FUTURE_OF_ASYNC_PAGING_ITERABLE]@Select
I have the following function signature:
@Dao
interface MyDao {
@Select
suspend fun get(id: UUID): Product
}
Does the mapper generator support kotlin suspend return type? if no, are there any workarounds?
Just acknowledging your question. I'm in transit so I'll see if I can get someone to respond.
Hi,
No, the mapper doesn't support Kotlin native features, such as suspended functions.
I'm not a Kotlin expert, but from what I can see online it looks like you can bridge the gap between JDK8 futures and coroutines using the kotlin-coroutines-jdk8 library. So if you have your DAO method return a CompletionStage<Product> instead, you can wrap it like this:
suspend fun get(id: UUID): Product {
return myDao.get(id).await
}
Where you put this other method is a matter of taste. It could be a default method on the DAO interface itself, but then the CompletionStage method is also visible at the same level. Or you could write a wrapper class, but then it's a bit more cumbersome if you need to wrap every DAO manually. Or Kotlin might have a more elegant way of handling this that I'm not aware of.
@Venky.kv_181838 Just wanted to let you know that I haven't forgotten about your question. I don't have experience with Kotlin and I'm looking for confirmation that coroutines are not supported currently by the Java driver. We don't have any workarounds available for it at the moment.
I will update my response as soon as I have more info. Otherwise, someone from our Drivers team will post a response too. Cheers!
Also @Venky.kv_181838
I would be interested to have an sample code on Kotlin leveraging on the latester driver version if you do have portion of your code than you can share It would help the community here I guess.Best Regards
