cannot find accessor getFirstName for CMP field firstName deploytool

[oll3i]

in deploytool when i go to "cmp database" i get the message "cannot find accessor getFirstName for CMP field firstName"?

[JosAH]

Is that getFirstName() method implemented? That deployment tool doesn't whine for no reason.

kind regards,

Jos

[oll3i]

yes there is getFirstName method in my bean and in the local interface
but when i click ContactBean and go to "Entity" firstName is not displayed there rest of the fields displays

@oll3i
You have to start experimenting then:

- maybe your deploy tool wants you to annotate those cmp fields;
- maybe (if you're using remoted interfaces as well) that getter has to be a part of that interface as well.

kind regards,

Jos (just guessing)

[oll3i]

i created the whole jar again and it doesnt complain now:)

[JosAH]

@oll3i
Oh great, it was just an old jar issue; may I suggest you do a complete build after you've changed your source code?

kind regards,

Jos
