APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • Flow node level UDP PropertyValue is not created while parsing
    the CMF and hence the broker.xml file will not have a property
    created for a user defined property set on an inlined subflow.
    
    
    As a result, the error "java.lang.ClassCastException:
    java.lang.String incompatible with java.lang.Boolean'" is thrown
    when CAST to Boolean operation is performed on a user defined
    property set on an inlined subflow (.CMF).
    

Local fix

Problem summary

  • ****************************************************************
    USERS AFFECTED:
    All users of IBM App Connect Enterprise V11.0 and V12.0 who uses
    User Defined property
    
    
    Platforms affected:
    MultiPlatform
    
    ****************************************************************
    PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
    While parsing an inlined subflow (.CMF file), flow node level
    UDP PropertyValue is not created and hence the broker.xml does
    not have a property created for a user defined property
    configured on an inlined subflow.
    
    As a result, when CAST to BOOLEAN operation is performed on a
    User Defined Property configured on an inline subflow (.CMF
    file), it fails with an error :
    
     "java.lang.ClassCastException: java.lang.String incompatible
    with java.lang.Boolean" .
    

Problem conclusion

  • Product is modified so that it correctly performs CAST to
    BOOLEAN operation on a User Defined Property configured on an
    inline subflow.
