Major Bug in Rich Object Mapping

[Matthias S.]

After upgrading to the latest Snapshot i encountered a major bug.
(was not in the SNAPSHOT a few days ago).

It looks like you are using Arrays.asList() when deserializing a collection that is contained in an entity.

class Foo {

 List<Bar> bars;

}

Arrays.asList() uses Arrays.ArrayList which extends AbstractList and is does not support many operations. add() for example!

SO you cant call foo#getBars().add(new Bar())

to be a little bit more precise, a java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException is thrown

I created a JIRA ticket:
