Having trouble with Spring.NET caching - caching

I have been reading this post to help me get going on my caching and am running into a problem. When I attempt to do a call to the method below I get the following error:
"Cannot initialize property or field node 'LocalTariffId' because the specified context is null."
I thought the attribute syntax I am using below would use the LocalTariffId property of the result once it returns to cache my data. This error occurs as soon as I attempt to step into the method. It seems to me that it is trying access that property too soon. I must be missing something so any advice you could provide is greatly appreciated!
[CacheResult("AspNetCache", "'LocalTariff.Id=' + LocalTariffId", TimeToLive = "00:10:00")]
public Domain.LocalTariffs.LocalTariff GetDefault(string agencyCode)
I am also getting a weird error after the first error I was hoping somebody could shed some light on. It has to do with log4net at least I think it does. My logging is working so I am not sure what this one is about.
IGCSoftware.HHG.Business.LocalTariffsFacade - Exception thrown in GetDefaultLocalTariff;GetDefaultLocalTariff;9c0bb393-369c-4501-a2ce-9325fe525e38;183341 ms

You can't use the returned object to generate the key of the CacheResult attribute.
You have to use parameters of the method to generate the key (here '#agencyCode').

Passing List objects through Braid

I try to invoke a flow through Braid. The flow takes a List<UniqueIdentifier> object as input parameter. When invoking the flow I get the following error:
error: -32000: java.util.LinkedHashMap cannot be cast to net.corda.core.contracts.UniqueIdentifier
Can someone help with this?
This is a deserialisation error of Braid. It might get fixed in a future version. A workaround at the moment is to use Array objects instead of List objects in Corda.
Useful functions are:
List.toTypedArray()
and
Array.asList()

Rest camel passing objects between endpoints

Overview.
My camel setup calls two service methods. the response of the first one is passed into the second one and then output the final response as json webpage. Fairly simple nothing too complicated.
Further breakdown to give some more context.
Method_1. Takes in scanId. This works ok. It produces an object called ScheduledScan .class
Method_2. Takes in object previous instance of ScheduledScan .class and returns a list of ConvertedScans scans. Then would like to display said list
Description of the code
#Override
public void configure() throws Exception {
restConfiguration().bindingMode(RestBindingMode.json);
rest("/publish")
.get("/scheduled-scan/{scanId}")
.to("bean:SentinelImportService?method=getScheduledScan").outType(ScheduledScan .class)
.to("bean:SentinelImportService?method=convertScheduledScan");
}
The methods that are called look like the following
ScheduledScan getScheduledScan(#Header("scanId") long scanId);
List<ConvertedScans > convertScheduledScan(#Body ScheduledScan scheduledScans);
It is returning the the following error
No body available of type: path. .ScheduledScan but has value:
of type: java.lang.String on: HttpMessage#0x63c2fd04. Caused by: No type converter available
The following runs without the error, i.e. without method 2. So I think im almost there.
rest("/publish")
.get("/scheduled-scan/{scanId}")
.to("bean:SentinelImportService?method=getScheduledScan");
Now from reading the error it looks like im passing in a HttpMessage not the java object? I'm a bit confused about what to do next? Any advice much appreciated.
I have found some similar questions to this message. However I am looking to pass the java object directly into the service method.

how-to-share-an-object-between-methods-on-different-camel-routes
You should setup the outType as the last output, eg what the REST response is, that is a List/Array and not a single pojo. So use .outTypeList(ConvertedScans.class) instead.

Stripes Framework expression validation on property

I am trying to add expression validation on my property on actionbean but I am unable to make it work. I have even tried with integers like this >0 but still the same exception is thrown. Below is the code
#Validate(required=true, minvalue=1, expression="${this > maxBudget}")
int minBudget;
int maxBudget;
I am getting the below exception:
net.sourceforge.stripes.exception.StripesRuntimeException: Could not parse the EL expression being used to validate
field minBudget. This is not a transient error. Please double check the following expression for errors: ${this > maxBudget}
caused by
javax.el.ELException: The identifier [this] is not a valid Java identifier as required by section 1.19 of the EL specification (Identifier ::= Java language identifier).
This check can be disabled by setting the system property org.apache.el.parser.SKIP_IDENTIFIER_CHECK to true.
I have tried few variation, but every time it throws this exception.
Can some one please point out the mistake I am doing here
thanks
If you want to make sure minBudget is larger than maxBudget (isn't that the other way around?) you could just do:
#Validate(required=true, minvalue=1, expression="${minBudget > maxBudget}")
For greater flexibility you could consider implementing a custom validation method:
#ValidationMethod(on={"show"})
public void checkBudgetRange(ValidationErrors errors) {
if (minBudget < maxBudget)
errors.addGlobalError( new SimpleError("This is not good..."));
// all sorts of other checks to your liking
}
The on array argument holds the name(s) of the event handler(s) for which you want to perform this validation method. So in the example here that would be public Resolution show().
There's an excellent explanation at the Stripes Framework site at https://stripesframework.atlassian.net/wiki/display/STRIPES/Validation+Reference
UPDATE:
If you want to make use of the this keyword in validation expressions you may need to add a VM argument to your server (tested this on Tomcat 8):
-Dorg.apache.el.parser.SKIP_IDENTIFIER_CHECK=true
Otherwise the abovementioned error may be thrown.
The default value of org.apache.el.parser.SKIP_IDENTIFIER_CHECK was changed from true to false as of version 7 in Tomcat.

Cast IPrincipal to IClaimsPrincipal returning null

I have inherited come code (an MVC web app) and am having trouble getting it to start.
These two lines exist:
var claimsPrincipal = principal as IClaimsPrincipal;
if (claimsPrincipal == null)
throw new ArgumentException("Cannot convert principal to IClaimsPrincipal.", "principal");
principal is an IPrincipal (in this case a System.Security.Principal.WindowsPrincipal), and is not null.
The first line sets claimsPrincipal to null, so the exception is thrown. I'm assuming it must have worked for someone at some point, and this is a fresh copy from source control. Why would this cast return null for me?
I see that this post is a long time ago. But I encountered the same problem today, and finally I get the way to resolve it.
In framework 4.5 or 4.6, you can directly cast System.Security.Principal.WindowsPrincipal into IClaimsPrincipal, because the first one implements the second one. But in framework 3.5 or 4.0, you cannot do this, becasue the first one doesn't implement the second one.It just implements IPrinciple, not IClaimsPrincipal. You can see it from MSDN link here.
Here it a way to resovle this and get the IClaimsPrincipal object.
var t = HttpContext.Current.User.Identity as WindowsIdentity;
WindowsClaimsPrincipal wcp = new WindowsClaimsPrincipal(t);
IClaimsPrincipal p = wcp as IClaimsPrincipal;
HttpContext.Current.User is a WindowsPrincipal, and finally you can get IClaimPrincipal.
principal might in fact be null. Did you debug that?
Check to see if the type of principal implements the IClaimsPrincipal interface.

DbLimitExpression requires a collection argument

Does anyone have the faintest idea what this error means please and how to resolve it? All my research is drawing a blank, I can see how to set it on MSDN but it doesn't explain it in a way that explains to me what the issue is. If I remove some of my LINQ queries to set viewbag items then it seems to resolve it but the moment I set new ones and pass them into my view to generate a mail for MVCMailer it comes back. Not sure if its a viewbag issue or simply that I am calling too many linq queries to generate them to pass to the view.
I am very stuck (again)..........
Cheers,
Steve.
DbLimitExpression requires a collection argument.
Parameter name: argument
Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.
Exception Details: System.ArgumentException: DbLimitExpression requires a collection argument.
Parameter name: argument
An example of the code is:
var VBSalutation = from A in context.Salutations
where A.SalutationId == policytransaction.SalutationId
select A.SalutationName;
ViewBag.Salutation = VBSalutation.FirstOrDefault();
This is repeated for various parameters and then passed to the view.
Well, I faced a similar problem and solved it. Problem was in WHERE clause: data type of left side equal operator (=) sign was not matching with data type of right side. So in your scenario:
where A.SalutationId == policytransaction.SalutationId
SalutationID of A might be an INT and SalutationId of policytransaction might be a string (This is how it was in my case).
I solved it by assigning policytransaction.SalutationId to an Int variable and using it:
int myIntVariable = Convert.ToInt16(policytransaction.SalutationId);
...//some code here
where A.SalutationId == myIntVariable;
Please also note that you cannot directly cast your variables directly in Linq else you'll get an error "LINQ to Entities does not recognize the method". You'll have to use a temp variable and then apply the where clause.
Try ViewBag.Salutation = VBSalutation.SingleOrDefault();
