java.lang.String cannot be cast to main.java.example.Person

Question

I am trying to write an example using Spring Data and connect to cassandra (topic http://docs.spring.io/spring-data/cassandra/docs/1.0.2.RELEASE/reference/html/cassandra.core.html)

Classes:

public class CassandraApp {

    private static final Logger LOG = LoggerFactory.getLogger(CassandraApp.class);

    private static Cluster cluster;
    private static Session session;

    public static void main(String[] args) {

        try {

            cluster = Cluster.builder().addContactPoints(InetAddress.getLocalHost()).build();

            session = cluster.connect("mykeyspace");

            CassandraOperations cassandraOps = new CassandraTemplate(session);

            cassandraOps.insert(new Person("1234567890", "David", 40));

            Select s = QueryBuilder.select().from("person");
            s.where(QueryBuilder.eq("id", "1234567890"));

            LOG.info(cassandraOps.queryForObject(s, Person.class).getId());

            cassandraOps.truncate("person");

        } catch (UnknownHostException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }

    }
}

@Table
public class Person {

    @PrimaryKey
    private String id;

    private String name;
    private int age;

    public Person(String id, String name, int age) {
        this.id = id;
        this.name = name;
        this.age = age;
    }

    public String getId() {
        return this.id;
    }

    public String getName() {
        return name;
    }

    public int getAge() {
        return age;
    }

    @Override
    public String toString() {
        return "Person [id=" + id + ", name=" + name + ", age=" + age + "]";
    }

}

And I get this exception:

log4j:WARN No appenders could be found for logger (com.datastax.driver.core.Cluster).
log4j:WARN Please initialize the log4j system properly.
log4j:WARN See http://logging.apache.org/log4j/1.2/faq.html#noconfig for more info.

cassandraOps.queryForObject(s, Person.class) returns a String value, but I need to get a class.

It seems, there is an issue with the cqlTemplate's arbitrary object mapping.

Here is how I have fixed it.

   Person pnObj = cassandraOps.selectOne(s, Person.class);
   LOG.info(pnObj.getId());
