Question

I am using Play Framework about 1 month and it is a great thing, but I had one big problem
.
I`ve try to run following code in secure controller:

MyModel myModel = MyModel.all().first(); 
Field idField = myModel.getClass().getField("id"); 

About line 2 Play says:
Compilation error

The file /app/controllers/Security.java could not be compiled. Error 
raised is : Unhandled exception type NoSuchFieldException 

Maybe it`s a core bug?
Thanks.

Answer 1

You should handle the exception that getField(String fieldName) can throw. In this case a NoSuchFieldException.

Try to write it as such:

Field idField = null;
try {
    idField = myModel.getClass().getField("id");
} catch (NoSuchFieldException nsfe) {
    throw new RuntimeException(nsfe);
}
